In this episode, the gang take us on a culinary tour of the city, talking about their favourite places to go for food in the city. With summer quickly approaching, we talk about how so many people are going to Canada rather than America for their summer holidays. And, of course, it wouldn't be the CommRad if we didn't talk about the night life in Cork City and as the college year comes to a close, the nights out are becoming few and far between.

In this episode, we discuss the difficulties we faced in First Year of college and the advice we would give to ourselves if we had to do it again! Taking a trip down the memory lane, we recount on stories from our primary and secondary school days and how college life differs from this. A wholesome episode today with lots of funny anecdotes from David and Alice.

Sit down with your favorite cheese, weather it is Bree or Gouda it doesn't matter as long as its French, and enjoy the show.
