Description

Forget 'Stop the Boats': We Need to Stop The BOTS Causing Ireland's Disinformation Epidemic The rise of 'Irish Patriotism', when adopted and expressed alongside, and in alignment with, Anglo-American Patriotism and whiteness, is identity that is being pushed as being the 'true Irish' by bots targeting Irish social media: Where there are three times more bots accounts than there are real people. Writer and journalist Goodwill Cxunting explores what a bot is, asks what may be causing these bots, and suggests various motivations for narrative pushing in Ireland. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Why Menstruation Matters with Katrina McDonnell (@katrina_mcd)

I spoke to Katrina McDonnell, founder of Menstruation Matters [https://www.instagram.com/menstruationmatters_/?hl=en] about everything from periods, to imposter syndrome, to what it's like to have changed the law for people with periods right across the North of Ireland. Katrina is a force of nature, her unwavering commitment to making life better for women and girls in Northern Ireland has not only means that everyone now gets access to free period products in all public buildings in the North, but she's also working on a campaign to ensure kids can go to the toilet when they need during school hours, all the while she works in campaigns for The Good Law Project! ****** You won't be shocked to know that this podcast *isn't* professionally produced.
