Winner of the Popular Journalist of the Year Award, Larissa Nolan is a brave, highly intelligent, at-times controversial, and incredibly hardworking writer. Not only does Larissa hold very strong opinions on big issues like cancel culture, the left-right divide, Ireland’s notorious covid lockdowns (all of which we discuss in this episode) and much more – but, crucially, her opinions are based on long and deep research into these issues, they are not just designed to create heat and get twitter talking. This is a conversation I really enjoyed, and think you will too. Also on this episode we introduce a new member of The Mario Rosenstock Podcast – a spoken word poet called Spoken Word Steve who speaks truth to power and addresses the big issues and injustices of our time with creativity and passion. His debut performance will hit you like a tonne of bricks.
