I think it's fair to say we talk about the internet, our usage, and the way it's impacting our lives frequently on the podcast, so when I learned of Dr. Amy Watchorn's area of expertise, I thought a chat might be useful. She is Senior Clinical Psychologist at St. John of God University Hospital, where she often encounters issues around the internet through her work.Amy features in a new podcast series by St John of God University Hospital called ‘Stigma Shift’, which is designed to make expert, evidence-based mental health information accessible to the wider public.

Miriam O'Callaghan is iconic in the truest sense of the word, so I jumped at the chance to interview her before I had even read her book. Once I got my hands on it, though, I was even more excited for this conversation. Life, Work, Everything covers Miriam's whole life, from her family life growing up in Dublin to her life as a parent and of course her career. We cover a lot of ground in this episode, but honestly, I could have talked to her all day. I hope you enjoy.To support the podcast and access bonus episodes, join the community on Patreon here.

I was honoured when Holly Cairns asked if I'd be up for chatting with her in her first sit down interview since she returned to Leinster House since giving birth on polling day last year. We discussed the reality of becoming a mother as a sitting TD and leader of the Social Democrats, and why she's keen to get more women and people from diverse backgrounds in to politics, as well as how she feels about the current anti-immigration discourse.

I mean, if any of us thought I'd manage to get through this week's episode without talking about Lily Allen then we were sorely mistaken because there is a Lily update, along with chats about Billie Eilish taking on the billionaires and the changes afoot in the royal family.To support the podcast and access bonus episodes, join the community on Patreon here.

Today's interview felt strange initially, because while Carl and I are used to chatting, we're not used to chatting about ourselves... or not to each other anyway. Fortunately, Carl's book, At Least it Looks Good From Space, is so excellent that we shook off the strangeness quickly to get into my questions about what it includes, including Carl's experience of OCD, the reality of intrusive thoughts, male friendship and Dollywood of course.To support the podcast and access bonus episodes, join the community on Patreon here.
