When 78-year-old Sonia âSunnyâ Jacobs, along with her carer Kevin Kelly (31) died in a house fire at the Connemara home she called her âsanctuary", it seemed like a tragically ironic end for a celebrated activist. But Jacobs was no stranger to life's juxtapositions. The well-liked and peaceful woman spent five years on death row in the US before her conviction over the murder of two police officers in Florida in 1976 was overturned after procedural errors were identified. Now, as a Florida inmate speaks out about the circumstances leading to her incarceration, we ask who was the real Sunny Jacobs? Host: Kevin DoyleââââââââââââââââGuest: Eavan Murray

Six months into the new Government, and all seems to be oddly quiet in the world of Irish politics. Yes, weâve had the furore over the Regional Independent Groupâs support for the Coalition, Verona Murphyâs survival of no-confidence and the ruckus that followed Michael Lowryâs memorable two-finger salute. But since the dust settled on all the âruaille buailleâ of those rocky first days in January, business has been unusually quiet in DĂĄil Ăireann. So, what has this Government actually achieved so far? Has it lived up to its numerous election promises? Or is it simply too early to call our elected officials to account?

In early June, a shooting took place near a Dublin playground in broad daylight. There were no injuries, but a clear message was sent. Among the group that was targeted were associates of one of Irelands most feared crime bosses, Brian âKing Rattâ Rattigan. Once one of Irelandâs most notorious mobsters, Rattigan's rise was as dramatic as the Crumlin-Drimnagh feud he was at the center of. But now, 4 years after his release from prison, his name is surfacing again and so is the violence. Host; Tabitha Monahan, Guests; Robin Schiller and Nicola Tallant

Weâve now been living some version of a housing crisis for two decades.
First there was the Celtic Tiger and its crazy house prices. Then there was âthe crashâ and its ghost estates. Now thereâs the booming economy and the lack of supply.
The latest effort from the Government is a rewriting of the rules around rent pressure zones, but it will take years before we know if itâs a good plan or not. The man who is now centre stage of trying to fix the housing crisis is âthe quiet ministerâ James Browne. Is the success of Fianna FĂĄil riding on his shoulders?
