Every Saturday at 5pm John Connolly presents ABC to XTC on RTE Gold. It used to be on another online, formerly digital, RTE station called 2XM. Many of its editions can be picked up on the RTE Player. It is worth a listen if you like eclectic music from the late 1970s through to the late 1980s.
To quote the blurb: "For one hour each week, ABC to XTC explores the years that gave birth to punk and post-punk, new wave and British ska, New Romantics and the pioneers of modern electronic music".
John himself is a writer who has a keen interest in music, and it shows.
Edit: And yes, he does play ABC and/or XTC from time to time!
