The current state of Irish Radio

Hey lads/ladies/other ladeens. Just a quick question for you, what has everyone's experience with pitching to Irish radio stations been like? I've been promoting my new EP in the last couple of weeks and sending it to stations all over the world. I'm local (Cork) however I've had a vastly superior experience in New Zealand, USA and UK than I have in Ireland. Same press release, same pitch outline, same song etc.

Am I losing my mind? Or am I missing something? Why would it be that Irish stations won't even read an email from an Irish act and yet stations in other countries are happy to not only read but reply and add to on air play time?

All the best and happy Patrick's Day!
