Welcome to Rebel Matters

Rebel Matters is an internationalist anti-imperialist podcast based out of Belfast, Ireland. The show first went out on the pod-waves in 2017 and since has covered a lot of ground from chats with artists and musicians, community activist, authors and people breaking new ground in their respective fields. Past guests include Bernadette McAliskey, Radie Peat, Father Des Wilson, and KNEECAP to name a few. Sometimes the show is in Irish, depending on the preferred language of the guest, and every now and again the interview format is abandoned in favour of something a bit different.

You can find the show on most of the usual podcast platforms as well as in the player below and new episodes are usually released on Friday mornings. Rebel Matters is supported in full by our Patreon subscribers, and you can become a Patron by subscribing right here. You can also support the show by following us on social media, sharing episodes, and subscribing to the show on whatever platform you are using to listen to the episodes.

Western hypocrisy abounds during Gaza genocide.

The Gaza genocide has unravelled the hypocrisy of the consumerist society that we are taught to worship from the moment we are born. Things will not be going back to normal. The big logos we spend our money on and so proudly wear on our backs represent companies that have steeped their hands in Palestinian blood as they follow the smell of money and pander to Israeli faux victimisation.
