John Byrne

The second one, elevating the voice of LMA.

We established two new committees, Career Impact and Industry Impact, the first one to serve our members from a professional development, career development perspective, and the other to make sure that, John Byrne is gonna kill me for using this, this line, but under LMA, it said the authority for legal marketing.

And I know we don't really use that anymore, but still that, that powerful notion that, like, we are, you know? And making sure that the broader industry knows that, that we're working with media partners and putting more intentionality behind that aspect of LMA.

And we have, you know, a committee dedicated to doing that.

So hence, they're not happy with what the minister says, and other ministers says, or is, is already on the table.

A spokesperson for Jack Chambers said the door remains open.

There is still time to avert this, uh, strike.

But he's also criticized the unions for being unwilling, he says, uh, to sit down.

But teachers say their pay has fallen significantly behind inflation, and that the recent budget fails to offer a credible solution.

To discuss what this means locally for schools, for parents, and for students across Cork, I'm joined by John Byrne.

John is ASTI spokesperson for Cork South & Carbery and, uh, a, a teacher at a local school, and John joins me, uh, this morning.

Good morning to you, John.

Hey now, and welcome to my podcast.

I'm Andrew McLain, and this is John Byrne.

And this is Tony Gup.

I just wanted to, I just wanted to try to

That's a lot.

Another example of...

And I really need John Byrne in here for this, but I can't wait on him.

Another example was this song that was played in the court.

Yeah, I told him tomorrow to call in tomorrow.

So I think we're going to have him at, I think I told him 11, John Byrne.

So expect Randy at 11 tomorrow.

Okay, a real quick take.

It would probably be a mixture of ways.

Um, we have, you know, a lot of core artists that have played over the years, and then this year we're very lucky to have curators like Elaine McMahon, uh, John Byrne, who have been in the music industry for years, so they have sourced some great new and upcoming acts, uh, like Síof Scally, uh, Cubanna.

Um, so, so many interesting acts that are coming up.

So we're, we're lucky in that sense.
