Episode 209 w/ Mick Moran
Mick Moran is a former Garda who works tirelessly to protect children from sexual abuse, both with the Guards, and Interpol and now as CEO of Hotline.ie. Mick explained where this child sexual abuse material is coming from and why he cares more about finding the child than the abuser.There’s a serious debate about the potential to rehabilitate a sexual offender and Mick gives his take on seemingly ‘lenient’ sentences for those caught with this content. He also tells us why deleting child abuse images is the worst thing you can do if you come across them, and explained what you should do instead.It’s a heavy topic, but we’ve never shied away from those before and it’s important to discuss this issue so we can all protect kids better and know what needs to be done to make the world a safer place.

Episode 208 w/ Justine Stafford
Comedian Justine Stafford came into us this week and quickly derailed the entire episode with talk of Banshee Bones, Joe Dolan and incels.She told us about her journey into comedy and attending two college courses at once, which makes sense when you consider how many points she got in her leaving cert. Her time at college did her no harm and gave her some much needed real life experience to avoid mishaps with tampons, bus drivers and ATMs.Phil Mitchell gets a lot of love in this episode and we're still not sure why, you'll just have to listen to find out.Sponsored by FBT Gyms.
