In the second half on www.patreon.com/celticligersThe Ligers talk about the Irish response to the US and Israel attack on Iran, Zack Polanski at least giving some catharsis by saying things they want to say to right wing media in the aftermath of the Gorton and Denton bye election in which Hannah Spencer won for the Green Party AND they finish by watching the Scary Movie 6 trailer and talking about Scary Movies.

What are the public like?! And of course... Epstein talk. In the second half over on www.patreon.com/celticligers,It's about Peter Mandelson, how fares UK Labour, Cork's own Morgan McSweeney and Your Party actually being exciting if they can escape Corbyn's orbit. More of the same really! Bit Brit focussed but still good! 
After suffering a number of technical difficulties, The Ligers are now right wing and appealing to any potential sponsers out there.

Simon Harris glazes Pat Kenny who is only moving to a weekend show on Newstalk to make for the POWERHOUSE of Claire Byrne who Paschal Donohue gave a book to! Remember?

You might learn something. This is the audio straight from the troubled livestream with all those problems that went with that. Gar did some mild editing and added clips so hopefully it's alright. Get the full episode on www.patreon.com/celticligers
