The Week Trending: Catholicism, CMAT, & The Irish Language

22 May - 30 mins
Podcast Series The Last Word with Matt Cooper

While on a visit to Italy this week, Taoiseach Micheál Martin met with Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican, the first meeting between a pontiff and a Taoiseach since 2018.

Meanwhile, CMAT made headlines as she won the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for Best Album for her album 'Euro-Country'. The Irish popstar used the opportunity to urge artists to stop "sitting on the fence".

And a new survey has indicated a growing interest in the Irish language on both sides of the border.

Cathal O’Sullivan and Elaine Burke join The Last Word to discuss all of these and more of the week's trending stories.
