  • This week and next week we are going full on, balls to the wall Pride Party as we play some of our favourite Pride anthems live on air.


    Fear not though because on this weeks show we bring you the lastest happenings in our Rainbow Round Up including the SCANDAL around Justin Timberlake's arrest earlier in the week.


    We also take a look at some dilemma's sent in by listeners and try our best to offer advice as me put on some pearls and become your favourite agony aunties!


    Over recent years, the community has been subjected to increased attacks and hateful speech both within society and online. After members of the community were hunted in Dublin's Phoenix Park this week and a man walked free following the brutal attack of a woman in Limerick after she asked him not to use a slur, it is more important than ever to mind ourselves and our friends. James has some practical advice this week so that we can continue to shine, celebrate pride and keep ourselves and our friends safe.


    Always report any incident you perceive as motivated by hate to An Garda Síochána. In an emergency you must call 999/112.
