Summary

From the Ukraine to Virginia, the battle over which version of the truth is more correct has raged this week while Elon Musk learns why even he doesn’t want absolute free speech. I interrupt Marion’s well earned holiday in Ireland to get her take on what just happened with Twitter, that interview with Piers Morgan, the US policy change in Ukraine, history making droughts in California and the Johnny Depp she used to know. There is a lot packed into this one. If you have a question you’d like to submit for Marion it’s easy, email irishmanabroadpodcast@gmail,com or send a voice memo to the Liveline on 0044 7543 122 330.
