Richie is joined by the author and blogger Jean Murray. The Irish Department of Education is rolling out a Relationship and Sex Education programme for primary and secondary school children that aims to make Ireland a more inclusive and tolerant society. That's the claim. In reality, children are being exposed to concepts around sexual orientation, gender identity and biological sex that they are not mature enough to process. Why is this happening?Who or what is behind this agenda? What impact will it have on children? Jean Murray has been looking into it and discusses it with Richie.Plus: Richie rounds up the day's biggest news stories. www.jeanmurray120.wordpress.com

COME FILL UP MY CUP by Jean Murray Munden​On a trip to Scotland, Robin Lindsay, a 45-year-old Canadian widow, meets James Maclachlan, a Scottish widower.James is haunted by his poor relationship with his wife, who died under mysterious circumstances nearly 10 years ago, leaving a daughter and infant son. The couple fall in love, but events emerging from the past, and violent murder in the present, complicate matters.About The AuthorI grew up in a small town in Okanagan Valley in British Columbia, at sixteen moved to the Vancouver area where I finished high school, and trained as a nurse in one of the city's two hospital schools of nursing. I married a widower with three children, had one child of our own, and travelled extensively with my husband, who was a professional engineer. I have always been a storyteller, and loved to write, but didn't do any serious writing until the 80s. Now widowed with four grandchildren and one great grandson, I travelled on my own with friends or family up until COVID made that impossible.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1953048021/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=indie0fd-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=1953048021&linkId=d8785ca7137ae385913ec8fa1cc74d41http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/wbranding11421.mp3I'LL REMEMBER APRIL by Jean Murray MundenTwenty year old Lulu Ferris visits her grandmother, Louise, to discuss her love life —Lulu, already engaged to be married, has suddenly fallen in love with a man some years older than she.

This week, I'm revisiting an topic that I originally discussed in my August 16, 2020 episode.

Richie is joined by Jean Murray and James Perloff. Dubliner Jean Murray is a popular blogger and anti-lockdown activist. Jean discusses the fallout from last weekends protest at St. Stephen's Green in Dublin and the media accusation that the protesters attacked the Irish Gardaí. Jean tells Richie why she believes the 2008 financial crash and subsequent bank bailouts, are connected to the pandemic hoax. https://jeanmurray120.wordpress.com/ James Perloff is a respected writer and broadcaster. His most recent book; "Covid-19 and the Agendas to Come, Red-Pilled" was booted by Amazon, only days after its publication. James discusses the implications of this with Richie. He also chats about the agendas fuelling the so-called Great Reset, Donald Trump's legacy, what we can expect for the Biden administration and much more. www.jamesperloff.net

We don't have to like it, but we need to accept the reality that the titles we choose for our books matter. While it's not easy for many authors to come up with the "right" title, there's a lot of advice out there that can help make the process of naming your next masterwork less painful...and even fun! ************************************************************************************************************************************************* Email me: marisadellefarfalle@gmail.com Twitter: @marisadee13 Instagram: marisadf13 Please subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts, and I'd really appreciate it if you can rate and review me on Apple Podcasts, as it'll help a lot more people find out about my show! ************************************************************************************************************************************************** Helpful links: "Naming Your Novel: How to Choose a Fiction Title That Fits," by Jacob Mohr: https://www.tckpublishing.com/how-to-choose-a-fiction-title/ "Coming Up With the Perfect Title for Your Novel": https://nybookeditors.com/2017/02/coming-perfect-title-novel/ "How to Come Up With a Good Book Title": https://www.wikihow.com/Come-Up-with-a-Good-Book-Title "Can a Book Title be Copyrighted?" by Jean Murray: https://www.thebalancesmb.com/can-a-book-title-be-copyrighted-3974593#:~:text=Book%20Titles%20Typically%20Can't,not%20eligible%20to%20be%20copyrighted.
