Earlier this week an investigation by The Irish Times revealed that hundreds of residents in boom-time apartment blocks are facing huge bills, the risk of eviction and the prospect of costly legal action to fix structural defects in their homes. It's a personal tragedy for apartment owners and a problem for our housing stock that is "verging on systemic", according to journalists Jack Horgan-Jones and Niamh Towey. They talk to Ciarán about the investigation. Plus, Peter Hamilton has a roundup of business news including Paddy Power / Betfair's new name, Ireland's new billionaire and Deliveroo's new plan for Irish growth. And Mark Paul on the strange timing of a new beverage launch in the Irish market by Diageo.
