Dublin's Fringe Festival is just around the corner and over the next couple of weeks we'll be highlighting some brilliant shows by women that feature in this year's programme. In today's episode we're joined by Fionnuala Gygax and Venetia Bowe from Chaos Factory, a theatre company who are bringing their show Miss You to the festival from the 10th to the 12th September. The show is inspired by the many cases of missing women in Ireland and tells the story of three friends who get together on the 10th anniversary of their friend's disappearance. The pair talk to Róisín Ingle about their backgrounds in theatre, the importance of movement in their work and the joys of working in the creative industry.

Also returning to the festival this year is spoken word poet Anna D, who will be treating festival-goers to her unique blend of poetry and storytelling, knitting together themes of motherhood, female empowerment, relationships and the patriarchal forces that shape society. In today's episode, the poet joins Róisín Ingle to talk about her upcoming show at Ireland's largest festival and to discuss her new show Matrescense, which is currently in development. Matrescense - the term used to describe the emotional, physical and social transition that women go through when becoming a mother - is something that the Dublin poet says needs more open and honest discussion. In today's episode she tells Ingle about the “avalanche” that followed her transition into motherhood, how she battled feelings of maternal regret and why she believes society is not set up to support new mothers. We also hear about her life lessons on turning 40 and she performs the title piece from her new show.But first Irish Times opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week, including the reaction to Amanda Knox's Edinburgh Fringe show and the worrying rise in popularity of technology which allows users to covertly record.

ADHD coach Ailín Kennedy was 32 years old when she was diagnosed with the condition. Having struggled for years with her mental health Kennedy went to therapy, attended her GP and was referred to psychiatrists, but ADHD was never mentioned to her as a possibility. She recently co-wrote the book Have I Got your Attention? with fellow ADHDer Mike McGrath-Bryan. It features testimony from nine Irish voices with the condition and serves as a reliable resource and a guide for those suffering from ADHD. Kennedy joins The Women's Podcast to discuss her own experience with the condition. She also challenges the misconceptions around the disorder, in particular stereotypes that negatively impact women with ADHD. In this episode she tells Rósín Ingle how women with the condition are often dismissed as “lazy”, “hormonal”, “ditzy” or “hysterical”. But first, Ingle is joined by Irish Times opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including the surprisingly entertaining jail journal of Andrew Tate and a new national strategy that aims to warn women and girls about the dangers of “tradwife” influencers.

Throughout the 20th century in Ireland, thousands of women and girls were sent to work in Magdalene Laundries all across the country. By 1951, for every 100,000 women in Ireland, 70 were locked away in a laundry, spending their days “scrubbing and praying in an attempt to salvage their souls”. In her new book, The Fallen, academic and writer Louise Brangan uses archive material and survivor testimonies to tell the story of six women who spent years toiling away unpaid in Magdalene laundries, all of whom were brought there under false pretences. In this episode, Brangan tells Róisín Ingle what day to day life was like for these women, why their history should never be forgotten and why the laundries are so often confused with Ireland's mother and baby homes.

Ken and Lima break down Cooper Ingle's costly mental error, tossing a ball into the stands after mistakenly thinking there were three outs, which turned into a two-base error and handed Texas the lead. Both hosts defend the rookie, arguing it was a "dumb kid thing" rather than a lack of effort, and push back on fans calling for him to be sent to Triple-A or benched. A caller, Mike from Cleveland Heights, tries to connect the gaffe to Josh Naylor's departure and his choice of cleats, but Ken and Lima shoot down both tangents as unrelated. The segment closes with the hosts crediting Ingle and manager Stephen Vogt for how the team rallied around him afterward.
Ken and Lima take caller reaction to the Cooper Ingle blunder, with Drew from Chicago arguing local media went too soft on Ingle by suggesting his rookie status or outfield inexperience as excuses instead of just calling it a boneheaded play. Ken and Lima counter that reporters were likely trying to guide players toward honest answers rather than let them off the hook, and agree the team's lack of run support means any defensive mistake gets magnified. They openly admit double standards exist, noting a veteran like Jose Ramirez or a struggling player like Gabriel Arias would face harsher scrutiny for the same mistake. A second caller shifts blame to the front office's roster construction, sparking a broader tangent comparing the Guardians' tight-margin build to the big-spending, dysfunctional Mets.
Ken and Lima defend not benching or demoting Cooper Ingle after his blunder, arguing that being called out on air and knowing he made a stupid mistake is punishment enough for a player barely a week into the majors. Ken compares it to other athletes forgiven for costly errors, like Nick Chubb's fumbles or Quinshon Judkins, reasoning that benching a young player only hurts the team and risks turning a minor mistake into a bigger narrative. The conversation shifts to LeBron, with Ken firmly stating he's willing to trade Evan Mobley for Jaylen Brown to bring LeBron to Cleveland, even at the cost of Donovan Mitchell's standing, since the Cavs have already proven they can reach the Conference Finals without a true superstar. Ken argues no NBA roster is perfect and that the current Eastern Conference landscape, with Toronto improving and Indiana getting Tyrese Haliburton back, makes now the time to gamble on the LeBron and Brown pairing.
Ken Carman and Anthony Lima analyze Cleveland Guardians prospect Cooper Ingle's recent base-running blunder and whether the public discourse serves as sufficient punishment. They also explore a potential LeBron James return to the Cavaliers involving a Jaylen Brown trade and evaluate the Browns' quarterback competition between Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders. 01:50 - Cooper Ingle Base-Running Error 06:20 - Judging Professional Athletes Mistakes 09:25 - Potential Cavs LeBron Trade 17:15 - Crying Over Cleveland Sports 26:05 - Watson Versus Sanders Debate 36:10 - Selling The Browns Future
Andy and Jeff talk about Cooper Ingle's blunder that cost the Guardians a win against the Rangers, and the silver lining that could come out of the mistake.
Chris Rose joined Baskin and Phelps and shared his thoughts on LeBron's future, whether or not it will be in Cleveland or elsewhere. He also talked about why the Guardians have been struggling so much lately, the team's response to Cooper Ingle potentially costing the team a game with his fielding error, and if the Guards can get out of their slump.

A monthly pledge is all it takes and you'll unlock all those benefitsShow notesThe Enhanced Games came and went in Las Vegas, amidst much hype, a host of personal bests but only a single world record. Was the event a success, and a taste of what is to come, or a spectacular flop? What do we make of allegedly clean athletes beating dopers, and dopers failing to challenge world records, often by large margins? As the sports world figures out what to make of it, Sean Ingle, chief sports reporter and columnist for The Guardian, joins us fresh from attending the event to share his experiences, thoughts and unfiltered verdicts.Sean went in expecting grifters, but discovered something a little more complicated. He spoke to true believers of the "human enhancement" movement, billionaire backers, and athletes who made business decisions that may become increasingly difficult for other sports to ignore. Sean relates those conversations and his impressions of what they imply for the future of sport.We ask the harder questions too. Will the Enhanced Games grow or stall? What are the risks if the business model that uses athletes to promote drugs for anti-aging purposes succeeds? And what lessons must traditional sport take from an event where athletes averaged $166,000 in a single night, and where the phone of at least one Olympic swim coach hasn't stopped ringing since?Sean has placed his own sportsman's bet with one of the funders, Christian Angermeyer, that the Enhanced Games won't survive past 2031. He explains why he believes this, despite factors that suggest that "enhancement" is here to stay, and why he'd still rather be wrong than just ignore it.LinksSome of Sean's articles on The Enhanced GamesWhy he believes The Enhanced Games will fail by 2031The questions Sean wrote will need answering prior to his visit to VegasInitial reactions from Vegas on the night of the GamesThe Enhanced Games reject the timing controversy as "drivel" Hosted on Acast.

While the war in the Middle East dominates the daily headlines - from peace talks to the price of oil - far less attention is given to the lived experiences of ordinary Iranians. These are the people who are living among the conflict and under the rule of a heavy-handed Islamic regime.

What is it like learning to drive in your 50s? In today's episode, we hear from journalist June Shannon who passed her driving test at the age of 54. For years, Shannon avoided driving due to anxiety, having failed a driving test in her late 20s. Living in Dublin and close to public transport, also meant she didn't need to use a car. However, a move to Limerick a few years ago - where a car became essential - pushed Shannon to get lessons and try again. This time, she learned on an automatic car, which made the experience a lot less stressful. In today's episode, she tells Róisín Ingle why it's never too late to learn and that if she can do it, “anyone can”. But first, Irish Times podcast producer Suzanne Brennan is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including the arrest of Martina and Ammi Burke and the musical comeback we've all been waiting for: Celine Dion.

In 2024, the mass‑rape trial of Dominique Pelicot - who was tried alongside 50 other French men - shocked the world. The father of three was found guilty of drugging and raping his wife, Gisèle, over a ten‑year period, and of inviting other men he met online to rape and abuse her as well. After a 16‑week trial, Pelicot was sentenced to 20 years in prison. It was a case so shocking that one would be forgiven for assuming this type of sexual abuse is rare. However, a new investigation by CNN journalists Saskya Vandoorne and Niamh Kennedy has found that Pelicot is not alone. The pair spent several months undercover, investigating an underground network of men who exchange information and advice on how to drug and rape their wives and partners and who then share the images and videos they create with one another. In today's episode, Kennedy and Vandoorne join Róisín Ingle to discuss what they uncovered inside a secret Telegram group, how their investigation brought them to Poland, and what they heard from some of the women who have been victims of this type of crime.You can watch their investigation on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zE_kzRs1wTEAnd you can read more here: https://edition.cnn.com/interactive/2026/03/world/expose-rape-assault-online-vis-intl/index.htmlBut first, Irish Times opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including the guilty verdict that came this week in the Natalie McNally murder trial and what can be done about Northern Ireland's alarming femicide rate.
