Episode 4 is a response to last week's flooding, offering some context to terms that you might see used in discussions of watercourse management in Ireland. Articles by Anthea Lacchia and @thinkorswim.bsky.social were particularly helpful in putting this week's episode together

I tried to write something snarky about how I'm glad we're increasing Garda numbers to deal with "addiction and anti-social behaviour", since a senior garda thinking fear is their best tool is a great sign for the internal culture, but honestly there isnt enough sarcasm in the world
