Belfast man Michael Harkness on how growing up on the Shankill Road in the 1970s fitted him for life on a Caribbean island. Michael and his wife Odalis visit us from Margarita, a small island off Venezuela to talk about Chavez, bookshops, revolution, sniper-fire and escapism.

Fantastic pod cast. It still comes as a shock that such violence was happening just a few short years ago in Belfast. I found the Michael’s journey through life fascinating. I also love the music! Cannot wait for the next installment.
