This week's Friday guest is Dr. Caroline West, who is the author of Wrong Women: Selling Sex in Monto, Dublin's Forgotten Red Light District which is out now. I loved this book, which is a fascinating look into the women who ran Monto and the reality of life for women working within it. Caroline is a great guest, and I loved learning about this part of Dublin's history and how it connects to so many different areas of Irish life both then and now.


Also includes me complaining about MAFS Australia being too much of a commitment because it's three hours a week while speaking on my podcast which is... three hours a week. The self awareness is... lacking.
