And the story continues ...

The atrocious behaviour towards animals in this country continues. With the apparent ban of "dangerous dog breeds" from all county council estates some people guess that it won't stop there.

Soon all dogs on that list might be expelled from public parks or worse even rounded up and killed.

This will leave thousands of animals dead or dumped and thousands of responsible owners devastated.

Thomas will be talking to Helena Le Mahieu from ASH animal rescue and to Robert Kenny, Irelands first pet detective, about the effects this ban will have on all involved.

Footage will go out soon!!

IN-DEPTH show "The Media" up on the Podcast

As In-Depth goes from strength to strength more and more topics get covered. In-Depth as broadcast on June 26th was something very special as the show took some self criticism and explored the world of the media with all its pros and cons.

Thomas Janak was joined in the studio by Near90FM founder Jack Byrne and the show also featured an audio piece called "Epic 2014" which dealt with the everchanging media.

Lastly, TheDigitalHubFMs own Sam Lyons joined Thomas and Jack over the phone for the latter part of the show.

The full show is now up on the podcast:
