As well as Housewives & Hors d'Oeuvres: A Culinary Journey through the Real Housewives with Louise McSharry and guests. Speaking of Beyond The Plate Ali Dunworth says: "Irish food doesn't often get the pedestal it deserves, especially when it comes to culture. But there is history and culture in every knob of butter, cake of bread, head of cabbage, boiled ham, every bag of crisps and pint of stout. Irish food culture has been woven through our folklore, our customs, and our traditions and these days it lives on in our livelihoods, our festivals, and our screens. It's featured in poetry, songs and literature." "Everything having to do with food - its capture, cultivation, preparation, and consumption - all represents a cultural act. Over the weekend at Beyond the Plate we will celebrate Irish food old and new. We will celebrate the culture, customs and craic around Irish food and drink. We will discuss, debate, and taste Irish food and drink, both traditional and modern through as many varied lenses as we can, through talks, tastings, debates, plays, poetry, drinks and eating of course," says B...

HAPPY CHRISTMAS! This month we spoke to Molly Cantwell about her charity cover of ‘River' which was released on Wednesday the 20th of December in aid of GCN (Gay Community News), in memory of her late friend Joe Drennan who was killed this year in a hit-and-run incident in Limerick. We also chatted about her time dressing as a medieval lady to sing at banquets in Knappogue and Bunratty, her work in journalism, and some hidden talents that she has not adequately exploited recently. Molly Cantwell is a 25-year-old Irish/Valenciano/Madeiran queer multimedia journalist and student at the University of Limerick - as well as an award-winning shower singer to-be. Currently sitting as managing editor of Limerick Voice and editor-in-chief of An Focal, Molly is passionate about platforming human rights and equality stories as well as writing about music, arts and culture, news, politics, and much more. She freelances for Hot Press and Overblown, with previous work in The Clare Echo, GCN, The Irish Examiner, The Limerick Leader, and more.  During her time as a student in Limerick College of Further Education (2018 - 2020), Molly solo-produced and created her National Student Media Award nominated radio documentary “Cyber Killer - Qu'est - Ce Que C'est?”. In 2022, Molly also sat as editor-in-chief of CURIOUS - a UL magazine created by second year students. She has been nominated for the Smedias eight times - winning two of these categories. Molly has already lived another lifetime as a professional entertainer with Shannon Heritage, which she thoroughly enjoyed, but she is excited to finish college in 2024 and get her journalism career properly started. She is inspired by the dedicated work of her colleagues at Hot Press and female journalists like Zara King, Sarah McInerney, Claire Byrne, Louise McSharry, Aoife Moore, and more.  Follow Molly Cantwell on Instagram at @WhatMollyDoesNext and on Twitter/X at @whatmolsaysnext  Buy "River" on Bandcamp NOW here: https://mollycantwell.bandcamp.com/track/river  GCN is a free, vital resource by the LGBTQ+ community for the LGBTQ+ community since 1988.

This week's episode is chockablock, starting with a lengthy intro from me in which I discuss this article from The Cut. I think many of us would be better off if Ozempic wasn't a thing and I appreciate that this article has been triggering for many, so if you'd like to skip that section, skip to 17:30.Aoife Moore and I discuss the week's news as usual, from the Windsor Framework (don't worry if you don't know what that is, we got you), to Holly Cairns becoming leader of the Social Democrats, and a pathetic attempt by us to explain why the Northern Lights were visible from Ireland this week. We really just shouldn't talk about science.In the interview segment I chat to Lisa Connell and Cormac Cashman about the wonder that is Mother, the party they're throwing as part of St. Patrick's Festival and why safe queer spaces are so important. In entertainment, James O'Hagan and I digest the SAG Awards, whether Paul Mescal was slighted by Zendaya (he wasn't), Dwayne Wade's beautiful speech in support of his trans daughter Zaya and the sheer audacity, nerve and gumption of one of Lady Gaga's dognappers.If you have thoughts or corrections, please send them to 0892096423.

Leanne Hall is an author of and specialist in young adult and children's fiction. Her debut novel, This Is Shyness, won the Text Prize and was followed by a sequel, Queen of the Night. Her novel for younger readers, Iris and the Tiger, won the Patricia Wrightson Prize for Children's Literature at the 2017 NSW Premier's Literary Awards. This week we're diving into her beautiful and haunting YA novel, The Gaps.  Just a note a warning before listening:  This episode deals with discussions of violent crime against women. It was recorded in late February 2021, before Sarah Everard's abduction and murder in London. Some of the discussions may be triggering and if you'd like to skip straight to the writing chat, skip ahead to 49 minutes.  Our interview starts at 25 minutes.  https://heymamaearth.com/features/live-in-the-seasons (Read Michelle's article on how seasonally living changed her perceptions of living in the moment).  Caitlin recommends: Moxie (movie) A fun movie about teen girls smashing the patriarch brought to us by Amy Poehler. Caitlin hasn't read the YA book of the same name, but we've both heard brilliant things about it.  Michelle recommends:  The Trespasser by Tana French Character-driven and atmospheric crime fiction  filling the Line of Duty-shaped hole in Michelle's heart. In this interview, we talk about: The ‘odd-couple' friendship at the heart of The Gaps The haunting crime at the centre of the novel and Leanne's own experience as a teenager on the periphery of a major crime Re-visiting teenage trauma when writing The way girls and women are, from a young age, taught to protect themselves from violence Why Leanne wanted to explore the ‘perfect victim' myth and the dangers of that narrative in the media Leanne's view on the ethics around true crime as a media genre and the boundaries she gave herself when writing (with a tangent about the brilliance of Veronica Mars) Why Leanne wanted to explore race, culture, and class issues in the novel and how writing and fictionalising the story was therapeutic How Leanne wrote The Gaps in tandem with her previous middle grade novel Iris and The Tiger Leanne's genre-bending style and how she departed from that in The Gaps The success of Leanne's debut novel, This Is Shyness and the pressure of writing knowing people are expecting it Books and other things mentioned: 10 Things I Hate About You Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging Sundays Pop and Culture  panel from Louise McSharry (the episode Michelle referenced is https://open.spotify.com/episode/2xIF5IVfYM2UzU7W53LdxM?si=CZfowiEhTFWSLrxfqGekYw (this one)) Line of Duty  Veronica Mars Follow Leanne on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/lilymandarin/ (@lilymandarin) Follow us on Instagram https://ww.instagram.com/betterwordspod (@betterwordspod) The Gaps is out now in Australia.  We both received copies of The Gaps for review from Text Publishing.

This week on The One Fab Day Wedding Podcast, we're delivering a message to every engaged person on the planet - you look great, so, in the words of Billy Joel, don't go changing! Unfortunately, in the lead up to your wedding day there's extra pressure to conform to societal beauty standards - you'll likely hear that you need to lose weight, get your teeth straightened, get your nose fixed and so on, in advance of the big day. Billy Joel lyrics aside, we would never tell anyone that they should or shouldn't alter their appearance, but we do want to extinguish the myth that you need to look a certain way to get married. That's why we recruited the help of Louise McSharry, 2FM broadcaster, beauty columnist, and author of the book, Fat Chance, to help us put this episode together. Louise wrote an incredible piece for online magazine The Pool about her decision not to lose weight for her wedding, and we thought this was the perfect way to kickstart a crucial conversation about body image and wedding planning.Episode Breakdown: Episode 11 - Why You Don't Have to Lose Weight for your Wedding with Louise McSharryWedding tip: This week, we're spreading the good word about open mic-style wedding speeches. Celina actually MCed the speeches at Claire's wedding, so needless to say, we're huge fans of this format!Main topic: With our esteemed guest, Louise McSharry, we discuss why it's so difficult to maintain a healthy body image during wedding planning, and what you can do to safeguard yourself from diet and cosmetic surgery culture, and ultimately, walk up the aisle feeling happy with how you look.Wedding dilemma: A listener writes, “I was wondering if you could speak on having an obligatory family member in your bridal party that you don't have a lot in common with or agree on things with? How do you handle having them involved in all of the bridal party tasks? I have a sister and we are complete opposites but I thought having her as my Maid of Honour would be an opportunity to bring us closer. We're far apart in age and are in complete different stages in life. I gave her the title but I don't know for my sanity/happiness how much I want her involved in decisions.”Something to do when you're not planning your wedding: Claire's recommendation this week involves scheduling a Skype date with a friend who lives abroad.Thanks for listening! Got something to add to the conversation? Shoot us a mail at hello@onefabday.com. We want the One Fab Day Wedding Podcast to make wedding planning easier and more enjoyable for you, our beloved listener, so if there's something you'd love to hear discussed on the show, or a question you'd like answered, please do drop us a line.If you loved the episode, don't forget to rate and review the podcast on iTunes.

(Will you let me be your Gayle, Louise and I can tag along to the Met Ball with you please-hmm?)We recorded the first ever live episode of The 80% in Mutiny Theatre, Dublin. Well, it was as if Boyzone themselves had landed in the room and twanged their Budweiser brace straps. The crowd were nuts with excitement. Some took off their tops. Others put more tops on and started doing laps of the room, filled with pure joy. They were all beside themselves and who can blame them? Such is the power of a LIVE podcast!Seriously though, doing the show in the theatre was so much fun and while I was nervous, I couldn't have asked for a better guest or a more encouraging audience.

2FM DJ and writer Louise McSharry joins Alan Maguire and Sarah Maria Griffin to talk about 80s CLASSIC Dirty Dancing. We brought a wide range of Dirty Dancing experience to the episode. Louise has seen Dirty Dancing many, many times. Alan saw it once when he was like eight or nine. Sarah watched it for the first time that morning. Did she like it? Have a listen and find out. What else did we talk about? Good question. We talked: a lot about how dreamy Patrick Swayze is. A lot. A whole lot. About being too young to watch Dirty Dancing, about our respective weddings and the kinds of dancing we got up to, about plastic surgery, about fictional summer camps, about music, about The Fountainhead, and many other things.

My guest on this week's show is 2FM presenter Louise McSharry. She talks about how she got her breakthrough in radio through persistence and a bit of brass neck, becoming the breakfast show presenter for iRadio, moving to RTE and her hopes for the music show she does every weeknight from 8pm - 10pm. We also discuss her upbringing, dealing with loss and a childhood situation that was challenging, to say the least, as well as the fact she was given the all clear from cancer back in March – and how that experienced has affected her and what she wants to do in the future. You can follow Louise on Twitter @louisemcsharry and, of course, listen to her on your radio weeknights on 2FM.
