Blindboy Boatclub is the Irish broadcaster, author and musician behind The Blindboy Podcast, a massively popular podcast mixing short fiction, comedy and interviews. His new short story collection, Topographia Hibernica, is inspired by the human, animal and emotional geography of Ireland.

Blindboy sat down with Ash for a freewheeling discussion about everything from Eminem's '90s style and the situation in Palestine to why cats are magical.
