What a pleasure to chat to Shane Daniel Byrne this week ahead of the launch of his new podcast which looks back at the journey towards the marriage equality referendum which was won ten years ago this month. We discuss the podcast and lots more, including his performance origin story, nerves, and his time shooting a new series for RTE. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed the conversation!

There was lots for Carl Kinsella and I to discuss this week, from the new pope to the continued horrors in Gaza. I'm not going to lie, I snapped in the middle of this recording, which means there's a little more colourful language than usual.

The word 'skort' did not know what hit it this week as it became the most used word in Ireland, thanks to the Dublin and Kilkenny camogie teams wearing shorts as protest at the Leinster Camogie Final last weekend. It felt only right to talk to Aisling Maher, one of those leading the charge in relation to the LUDICROUS and ANTEQUATED rule which dictates that women and girls must wear skirts or skorts to play the fast-paced, highly physical game. I learned a lot, and some of it left me open-mouthed in shock.

I was delighted to have the opportunity to sit down and chat with Alison Lomax, MD of Youtube UK and Ireland this week as the platform celebrates its 20th birthday. I'm not going to lie, when I speak to women like Alison, I'm always a little intimidated. As someone outside the corporate world, I always feel like I'm not smart enough or experienced enough or like I don't speak the language or something, but Alison could not have been kinder or warmer. We discussed her career, and I absolutely learned some things I can apply to my own, as well as the role YouTube plays in our lives, for good and for bad.

We've talked a lot about trans rights this week in response to the UK's supreme court ruling on the 'definition of a woman' so I thought this week's Friday episode should be a conversation with someone from the trans community. Laylah Beattie is an Irish writer, performer and podcaster, and she graciously gave me her time this week to talk about how she's been feeling in the wake of the ruling and the general change in tone when it comes to trans rights both here in Ireland and in the US and UK.
You can read Laylah's piece for Image here.

Lots to discuss this week as the all female commercial space rocket launched and the behaviour around it was totally ludicrous. Obviously there was also lots of Coachella chaos to discuss and the madness of Celebrity Big Brother. Fortunately, Esther O'Moore Donohoe was here to take us through the stories.

B-b-b-b-back once again with the Kinsella master! Sorry. I felt compelled to type that. Today myself and Carl Kinsella chat through the week's news and there was a lot of ground to cover from tariffs to Israel to Drury Street.

As we discuss regularly in the news episode, there are lots of children in Ireland being let down by various systems and some of those children need a safe and caring home. That's where the foster care system comes in. Unfortunately there is a major shortage of foster carers in Ireland at the moment, so today I'm bringing you a chat with Eithne Larkin, Recruitment Lead with Origins Foster Care. Eithne has also been a foster carer herself for 23 years, so she is perfectly positioned to give us an idea of what kind of people make a good foster carer, and the impact it has on the lives of both the children and the carers. I found this conversation incredibly enlightening and moving, and I hope you do too.
If you're interested in continuing the conversation, you can contact Origins Foster Care here, or contact Eithne on 0870529749.

There's loads for James O'Hagan and I to cover this week: Russell Brand has responded to the charges against him in the smarmiest way ever, there's a whole lot of faux outrage headed Sabrina Carpenter's way and we have to stan Pierce Brosnan.
