Richie Sadlier: Talking The Talk

If we were never taught about sex, sexuality and relationships in the modern world how can we hope to talk to our young people about it? Richie Sadlier’s new book “Let’s Talk” is aimed at helping both parents and youngsters alike in navigating the new terrain of sexting, gender identity, breakups and porn. He sat down with Jarlath to discuss the challenges of writing the book, establishing the right tone, offering his own experiences without making it about him and how he found the courage to open up about his own suffering over the last two years. This is a one of a kind chat with a truly inspirational ex-Irish international, writer and therapist. Let’s Talk the book can be found in all good book retailers now.  To hear every episode in full and to gain access to the entire back-catalogue of over 600 Irishman Abroad episodes that are not available on iTunes for just the price of a pint every month visit www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad Supplementary research provided by John Meagher.
