When you spend a lot of time on Twitter, you notice there's a certain cohort of people who are lurking in the replies. They're usually there giving patronising, condescending or downright annoying advice such as where to find good cider in France when you've tweeted that you're heading to Brussels. They are the reply guys. In this episode, Rachel is joined by Twitter stalwart Aishling McWalter and Gaming Editor at Headstuff, Andrew Carroll to discuss reply guys, their motivations, their experiences and why they feel the need to reply to everything.

Accessibility in Ireland is an absolute nightmare. Many buildings in Dublin are protected meaning they can't be altered to give better access for people who need them. Add to that a population who seem to see the wheelchair before the person in it and a lack of funding for treatment for her condition, it's a wonder that Niamh Ní Hoireabhaird doesn't punch more people. She joins Rachel in studio to chat the attitude we have to people in wheelchairs, the condition that put here there in the first place, Friedreich's Ataxia and her fears over funding for treatment options.
