A Welcome Home for our World Cup Queens, Una Mullally on Sinead O'Connor and those Lizzo Accusations

We're baaaaack! Thank you for coming back after my week off! This week Aoife Moore and I get down to the news business. We chat through the homecoming of the women of the world cup, the propsed sex-for-rent ban, and two of the wildest stories we've ever discussed.I felt like it was important to take some time to talk about Sinead O'Connor as there was no podcast last week. I've loved reading Una Mullally's writing about Sinead in the Irish Times over the years along with her recent piece for the New York Times, so was grateful she was up for chatting. I was particularly grateful to her for the reminder she gives at the end of our chat. Esther O'Moore Donohoe and I chatted through the week's entertainment stories, including what is going on with Lizzo, Ariana's new relationship, as well as the impact of social media trolling on Claire Byrne's exit from the race to be presenter of the Late Late Show.Recommendations:Aisling Ever After by Emer McLysaght and Sarah BreenThe List by Yomi Adegoke To support the podcast and access additional episodes check out the Patreon here.Get tickets for my show at the Cork Podcast Festival here.
