Magdalene Laundries, Alternative Rock and the Shame Industrial Complex

<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">In the summer of 2009, as the world was still reeling from the impact of The Great Recession, a young man, by the name of Kieran McGuinness, was trying to perfect a song. It was inspired by some grafitti he had seen in Spain. But the song had a purpose, for he was trying to find someone. And like Kieran, there were thousands of people who were trying to find someone all across Ireland. This week, in the tenth episode of the series, Ireland Untravelled, we uncover the story of the Magdalene Laundries, that of an alternative rock band, and the search of a boy for his long lost mother. Tune in, and discover the life lessons we learn from 200 years of the shame industrial complex. </p><p>Listen to Petardu by Delorentos<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2te0QzNidr4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">: </a><u><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2te0QzNidr4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2te0QzNid</a>r4</u></p><p>Till then Check out the other episodes of "Ireland Untravelled"</p><p>Lost Treasures, Dynamite and the Irish Nation : <a href="https://ivm.today/3okwxm5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3okwxm5</a></p><p>Gaelic and the stunning decline of the Irish Language : <a href="https://ivm.today/3zmhE9i" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3zmhE9i</a></p><p>Trinity Long Room and the Soul of the Irish Nation : <a href="https://ivm.today/3PnZkSE" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3PnZkSE</a></p><p>U2, Body Snatching and the Irish Way of Death : <a href="https://ivm.today/3IQ6fl3" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3IQ6fl3</a></p><p>Bombay, Paris and the improbable victory for LGBTQ+ rights in Ireland : <a href="https://ivm.today/3AJLa9B" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3AJLa9B</a></p><p>Irish roads that go nowhere, Houses no one lives in : <a href="https://ivm.today/3PGG95X" target="_blank" rel="noopener no
