The Limerick Lady 73: Sharon Slater, historian, "in the end everybody dies"

We're back! Did you miss us? Did you even notice we were gone for a month? Did you spot our new glasses? Our haircuts? Honestly, sometimes feels like you're just not paying attention...  Anyway, WE'RE BACK with a March edition of the Limerick Lady Podcast. We're joined by sarcastic and all-knowing (almost) oracle Sharon Slater, to talk about Limerick's link to Saint Patrick (if that even IS his name) (It's not).  Sharon Slater is an award-winning historian and author whose focus is on the history of Limerick. She has appeared on RTE, TG4, and PBS promoting Limerick's past. Her publications include "A Stitch in Time, a History of Limerick Clothing Factory" and "100 Women of Limerick", and she is creator of the Limerick's Life Podcast, co-hosted by her son Peter.   Buy Sharon's book, 100 Women of Limerick: https://www.omahonys.ie/100-women-of-limerick-p-10547171.html Visit Sharon's Website: https://limerickslife.com/  The Limerick Lady is a grassroots movement based in Limerick, Ireland, with a focus on promoting conversation around gender, visibility, gender balance and the arts. It was founded in 2016 by award-winning (and losing) singer-songwriter Emma Langford, who hosts the podcast alongside fellow award-winning (and losing) Limerick woman, theatre-maker and musician Ann Blake.
