In this episode I am thrilled to be speaking with the hugely talented Marina Carr – winner of multiple international awards, a member of Aosdána and regarded by many as Ireland's leading playwright.

Marina delves deep into the power behind the characters she creates and her writing approach, as well as fascinating insights on how she views history, men, women, and the future of humanity.

And having just completed the final script for her latest play, the cast at The Abbey Theatre goes into rehearsals this week for the worldwide debut of Audrey or Sorrow - grab your tickets now!

In this episode I'm chatting with the journalist, documentary maker and author Manchán Magan about unearthing stories of the knowledge and power wielded by women – both real and mythical – in Ireland of old. Manchán also shares with me a treasure trove of Irish words used to describe women's sexuality and bodies.

My guest in Episode 3 is Dr. Emily Harris, a psychologist and researcher from the University of Melbourne.

We shine a light on work she and her colleagues are doing on the link between The Invisible Job* (of parenting and running a home) and low sexual desire in women.

Just to add, Dr Harris is an expert on female orgasm frequency, so for all you ever need to know about orgasms, the clitoris and equality in relationships, listen up!!
