Cluineann muid faoi na hiarrachtaí atá á dhéanamh ag daoine dínascadh ón ghuthán agus an saol ar líne a fhágáil ar leataobh, fiú ar feadh seala. Agus glórnótaí: an sábháil ama iad nó sú fuinnimh? Nó ar ndóighe, an mbraitheann sin ar cé acu an tusa a sheol nó a fuair? Na hábhair cainte seo agus tuilleadh nach iad á bplé ag ár bpainéalaithe: Aedín Ní Thiarnaigh, Proinsias Ó Coinn and Mairidh Nic Cormaic. Fosta, agus Oíche Bhealtaine linn, roinneann Aedín seanchas agus piseoga bainteach leis an am seo bliana linn. We hear about the efforts people are making to disconnect from their phones and leave the online life behind, even if only for a short time. And voice notes: are they a time saver or an energy drain? Or does that depend on whether you are the sender or the recipient? Our panellists Aedín Ní Thiarnaigh, Proinsias Ó Coinn and Mairidh Nic Cormaic discuss these topics and more. Also, as it's May Eve, Aedín shares folklore and superstitions related to this time of the year.
