In this week's news catch-up Aoife Moore and I talk about Nicola Sturgeon stepping down and how desperately we need more female leaders, as well as the horror of the murder of Brianna Ghey and the rest of the week's news. Ruadhán Ó Críodáin, executive director of ShoutOut, tells us about the work being done by the organisation to get into schools to make them as safe as possible for young LGBTQ+ people, as well as what we can do to ensure young trans people in Ireland are safe. Then, myself and Orlaith Condon of My Pod on Paper chat through the week's celeb news, and I finally release my thoughts on Rihanna's Halftime Show (safe space engaged, please do not come for me, or if you want to come for me, send it via 0892096423).
Only one recommendation this week, and it's Monica Heisey's Really Good, Actually.
