Paul FinnertyGUEST
And thank you, Brendan, for the invitation to join with you.
Paul FinnertyGUEST
I have known of the program for many years through Father Gerry Kenny, who I think is operating, is it the 61st parish in Limerick, in Kilkee?
Brendan QuinlivanHOST
Only in the summertime.
Brendan QuinlivanHOST
Only in the summertime.
Michael ShannonGUEST
We had a beautiful spring and a lovely fine two weeks there in Easter and in May and they were closed as well.
Michael ShannonGUEST
And the same issues were in Kilkee.
Michael ShannonGUEST
And doing big and less, you know, less spring as well.
Michael ShannonGUEST
So the issues are cropping up all around the county.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
Firstly, Daragh, um, obviously we respec- we respect the court's decision, but we do not, however, accept that this marks the end of our efforts to protect Kilkee Cliff Walk and the environment of Kilkee.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
So we're now consulting our legal team on the judgment and on the options available to us and will announce our next steps in due course.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
But Uisce Éireann should not make the mistake of thinking that a legal setback is surrender on, on, on our behalf, because we're not going away, and we will simply not lie down and allow this project to proceed without continuing to challenge it.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
So, for instance, um, uh, o- one of the, one of the big claims that Uisce Éireann keep making, and it's simply just not true, they, they say in their statement, including on the statement yesterday, where they're triumphantly kind of, um, celebrating the fact that we have, have lost our, our appeal to, uh, the Supreme Court.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
But one of the statements that they keep regurgitating is that, um, and I quote, "This is a vital project to end the longstanding discharge of raw sewage into Intrinsic Bay." This statement is simply not true, Daragh.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
The plant that they're proposing for Kilkee is a primary treatment plant.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
Primary treatment simply, and apologies to anybody who might be in the middle of their tea, but a primary plant just removes the solid brown material from the effluent.
Ellie ByrneGUEST
It doesn't remove pathogens, bacteria, disease, or any other contaminants from the remaining wastewater.
MeganHOST
And yeah, I'll get into what I ate.
MeganHOST
So first stop, obviously, once I get into Kilkee has to be Miles Creek.
MeganHOST
Paul and I went last night for some chowder, and it just, it just hit again.
MeganHOST
Like, it just...
MeganHOST
Yeah.
MeganHOST
This is, this is that.
MeganHOST
But it, it's open to, it's open to the Kilkee public as well.
MeganHOST
It's just like they're not like, they're not bothering-
BeefyHOST
There is a house in New

Orleans they call the Rising Sun and it's been the ruin of many a poor boy and guy No, I'm one My mother was a tailor She sewed my new virgin For children Not to do what I have done No, no, no To live your life in sin and misery Down in the house of the rising sun There is a house in New Orleans They call the rising sun I've got some glasses And I've got the shorts I've got packed with nifty And the t-shirt of course While I've been shopping in pennies I've walked out to Dunn's I'm all set for the summer All set for the summer Looked into a hostel in the town of Kilkee We looked out the window at the mist on the sea We hit Malibu and that's what we do A chocolate and mango and a toss of the blue Achoo! Achoo! She stole all my money And I called it was love Then the horse with my ice cream Hopped in the sand I'm back to town, greyhound He dropped dead and crawled in the sand Said, oh God
BeefyHOST
Oh, well, that's a sentiment that is dear to my heart growing up in Wales, which is possibly the wettest place on earth.
BeefyHOST
Oh, God, will it ever stop raining? That is Bands You Didn't Know played Ska.
MosaicSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And we never left that pub before the clock was striking four.
MosaicSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER

MosaicSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
But best of all was Miltown when the music flowed so free.
MosaicSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Willie Clancy in the County Clare, I'm ever in your debt.
Siobhán MulcahyGUEST
Good morning, Alan.
Alan MorrisseyHOST
Uh, starting with film, and, uh, usually when we do, the name of Kilkee crops up.
Siobhán MulcahyGUEST
Mm-hmm.
Alan MorrisseyHOST
But it's not, not just there, you want to mention Ballyvaughan as well.
Siobhán MulcahyGUEST
But despite this, Saddam Hussein declares that every Iraqi must mark his birthday with a cake, [laughs] and that's the premise of the film.
Siobhán MulcahyGUEST
So that's happening this evening in Ballyvaughan.
Siobhán MulcahyGUEST
Um, and film is back again in, uh, Kilkee, and we have a really, uh, interesting and unusual film taking place on Wednesday evening called Hen, and this is told entirely from the perspective of, um, a hen.
Siobhán MulcahyGUEST
Um, and we see her escaping an industrial farm, only to find herself navigating the, uh, seaside, a seaside resort restaurant in Greece, and she's looking at what's happening there and becomes a witness to the complex, complex human lives around her, in terms of migration and smuggling, greed, et cetera.
Alan MorrisseyHOST
As part of that campaign, international speakers from communities in the US and Germany affected by gas infrastructure are coming to Clare for the Gaslit Documentary Speakers Tour, including a screening in Ennis on the 11th of October.
Alan MorrisseyHOST
And I've been speaking with the Kilkee resident and Stop Shannon LNG coalition member, Christer King, to discuss the campaign and the concerns being raised about the proposed LNG terminal in Clare.
Alan MorrisseyHOST
Good morning, Christer.
Criostóir KingGUEST
Good morning.
Dolores MeaneyGUEST
So we've had it as our one county, one book for the month of September.
Dolores MeaneyGUEST
And she bases the fictional town of Cluneven on Kilkee and used one of our CLASP, our Clare Local Studies publications, kind of to get into the sense of the town in the 1840s.
Dolores MeaneyGUEST
So she's coming to Kilrush tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock to start off our History Week.
Dolores MeaneyGUEST
And I'm looking forward to that event.
Jean ColemanGUEST
So our center here, you know, pick people up from their homes, bring them into the center.
Jean ColemanGUEST
