Ep5b Janine O'Flynn -Fast and Furious 11: this time, it's academic! SECOND PART
Well, it's that time again - Public Service Podcasting takes a break from marking and watching the football (we'd give Gareth Southgate and the squad a 74 for their recent performance against Germany) to share the second part of Professor Janine O'Flynn's excellent episode. This segment explores different approaches to managing Covid-19 in terms of public services and higher education in particular. We also think about the longer-term impacts, which may be enormous for Australia. If you don't follow @JanineOFlynn on Twitter, well what the heck are you doing? Go and follow her now. As usual, we are @publicservpod @Ian_c_elliott @karinbottom and @russglennon Any questions or comments - email us at [email protected]

Ep5a Janine O'Flynn -Fast and Furious 11: this time, it's academic!
Well, hello PSPers.  Welcome back after a slightly longer than usual break (can we just say 'marking' and leave it at that?) but have we got a treat for you.  In this episode, we chat with Professor Janine O'Flynn of the University of Melbourne and the Australia and New Zealand School of Government (ANZSOG). In fact, this chat was so good that we have had to split it into two parts.  We know you can only stand so much public admin goodness at one time! In this first segment, Janine tells us about her background and how she got to where she is and discusses the Australian public administration scene.  Part two will drop next week when we explore the different responses to Covid-19 in Australia and the UK and we consider what the impact of Covid might be on higher education as a sector. As always, follow us on Twitter via @PublicServPod and @janineoflynn, @ian_c_elliott, @karinbottom, and @russglennon Get in touch via [email protected] NB: Recorded in Feb 2021

Ep4: PSP does Line of Duty with Dr Jo Knowles and SPOILERS!
Jesus, Mary and Joseph and the wee donkey! We've only gone and made a podcast episode about Line of Duty S6.  In this episode, we are joined by Dr Jo Knowles, Senior Lecturer in Media, Culture, and Communication at Liverpool John Moores University.  Document H in your folders today is our discussion of the sinister happenings throughout all six seasons of LoD. We consider what the programme can show us about representations of public services in contemporary culture. How does public service motivation and leadership appear in the show? How diverse and representative is it? But what about that ending? And is Jed Mercurio a genius (answer: yeah, probably)? Towards the end, we also think about whether this might become a semi-regular thing, i.e., discussing how public services appear and are represented in popular culture.  If you have a show, film or book you'd like to nominate, email us at [email protected] or message us on Twitter at @PublicServPod.

EP 3 Joanne Murphy: We're going to need a bigger problem...
Well, hello everyone.  It's PSP time again and in this episode, we talk to Dr Joanne Murphy, Reader in Leadership and Organizational Change, from the Queen's Management School at the Queen's University Belfast.  We also get to find out a little more about our third co-host Karin Bottom's background and experience. Joanne's experience in organizations and communities in conflict situations gives her some enormously valuable insight into the processes of reconciliation and peace-building. Joanne also leads the Centre for Leadership, Ethics and Organizations at QUB (@cleoqub) where multi-disciplinary scholarship explores some of the thorniest issues. Joanne shares her perspective on the Irish situation, Brexit, Trump, peace-makers and how we make research and teaching more inclusive. We also touch upon Twitter as a communication channel for public servants.  Joanne is also an excellent tweeter and can be found discussing everything from politics to the zombie apocalypse at @changeresearch. Find us all on at:  @PublicServPod@RussGlennon@Ian_c_Elliott@KarinBottom

Ep 2 Bruce McDonald: From Tallahassee With Love.
In this second episode of Public Service Podcasting, we talk to Dr Bruce McDonald III, who hosts the Academics of PA podcast with William Hatcher and Josie Schafer.  You should definitely check them out.  We also have our third co-host, Dr Karin Bottom with us today.  It's a full house! We talk to Bruce about some of the differences between US and UK public service teaching and research as well as finding out some fascinating facts about Bruce's background and route into public administration.  I bet you won't predict how he spent the 1990s!  Bruce has also just taken over the editor in chief position for the journal Public Administration, a key journal in the field that celebrates its centenary next year.  Follow Bruce on Twitter: @academicpiracy and @AcademicsofPA Us: @russglennon @ian_c_elliott @karinbottom @PublicServPod

PSP goes live - episode one with Ian and Russ
Hey! Welcome to Public Service Podcasting.  Thanks for coming along and listening; thanks even more for subscribing! In this first episode, Ian and I chat about our background and experiences and how we hope the podcast will go. I must say that there was a problem with my mic that makes me sound a bit like a Cylon.  Have no fear, I am a real, live human being. And I fixed my mic for subsequent episodes... Public Service Podcasting will take you into the heady and exciting world of all things public administration, management, and service, bringing in experiences from academia and actual public service.
