Welcome to our podcast, recorded in Dublin! Paula Lyne and Rosie Plunkett chat about all the things you need to keep yourself lit for the month ahead.
Some of you mentioned the audio was a bit low on this episode, so we have upped the levels, meaning you should be able to hear us loud and clear!
Episode 7 - #REPEAL - May 18, 2018
We knew we couldn’t let May go by without an episode focusing on a topic that’s a constant pulse in our hearts and heads: the #repealthe8th campaign. With a week to go until the polls open, Ellen Quinn-Banville shares her own abortion story with us - and we hear what it takes to turn the seed of an idea into a global campaign from Sarah Nangle of the Abortion Rights Campaign.
