Monday’s show opened with a look at the weekend’s hurling action as Clare lost out to Limerick. This was returned to later for the Monday Sports Panel.

Then the talk turned to the appointment of Clare’s next Mayor, Fianna Fáil’s Councillor Cathal Crowe.

Gavin also heard from Una Burns of Novas about ongoing efforts to open a hub for homeless families in Ennis in the near future.
