Hobsons Choice

Ahead of the Choice Music Prize 2021, Jim Carroll who chairs the judging panel and co-founded the event discusses the purpose and the track record of Choice. He addresses some topics in this episode that he probably hasn't dealt with elsewhere e.g. does he get paid for working on Choice and do the acts who perform at the event get paid. Ben McCormack has begun a petition to introduce a full week of Irish only music on radio stations in the Republic. He discusses why he started it and what he hopes to achieve.
