Catch Up with Louise McSharry
Yet More RTE, Sinead O'Carroll and the Kyle and Mauricio Question
Season 1, Ep. 67
•
Well, there's loads more RTE stuff to be broken down so Aoife Moore and I get right into it. We also discuss the investigation into cocaine in the White House, the tragic loss of two young Irish lives in Ios, and the Israeli attack in Jenin.
The Women's World Cup is right around the corner, so it's time to hop on the bandwagon. Ahead of her journey to Australia to report on the tournament, TheJournal.ie editor Sinead O'Carroll joined me to explain why the presence of Ireland at the world cup is something anyone with an interest in women and equality should be excited about.
Esther O'Moore Donohoe joined me to chat through the week's stories in showbiz and entertainment including the rumours about Beverly Hill's housewife Kyle Richard's marriage and lots more besides.

496. Catch Up with Roisin Kiberd
53:42||Season 1, Ep. 496When I heard that Irish writer and creative writing lecturer Roisin Kiberd had written a book of essays on beauty, I knew I had to read it. Once I'd read it, I knew I had to chat to her about it, so that's what you're going to hear today. The Most Normal Woman explores Roisin's relationship with beauty, beauty ideals, beauty niches and beauty standards and I absolutely loved it.
