Joining Gavan for this week's installment of Hidden Histories is Damian Corless, journalist, and author of 'You'll Ruin Your Dinner'.

Together they discuss the early days of the Irish Free State amid Fianna Fail's drive for self-sufficiency, the Anglo-Irish Trade War of 932 to 1938, and the battleground of Irish sweet shops.
