Ep 11 with the Mighty Tash Doherty

“What’s the craic bueyes?” I couldn’t think of a title more apropos than one fusing Irish and Mexican slang. In this episode I had the distinct pleasure and honor to converse with Tash Doherty. Now as context clues might’ve indicated a correlation of the lands of “Eire” and “Mēxihco”, here it is. Tash was born in London with an Irish background and relocated to Mexico and her spanish holds up especially when talking in local slang and “kickin the sh*t”. She is a writer and published author and continues to push the envelope when it comes to bringing taboo conversations to the forefront. Taboo in the sense that the patriarchal societal construct has deemed them so. These conversations are necessary and truly enlightening. My episode with here was merely a microcosm of what you can expect Tash to cover on her platform via social media, her newsletter and other sources. She was patient with my inquisitive nature of asking questions that should be basic knowledge when it comes to women reproductive RIGHTS and contraceptives. The fact these and other are not everyday basic knowledge is an adherence to the construct we see as women rights are pushed further into the backburner and every one and awhile dangled as political tokens come election season. But I’m rambling at this point, please enjoy the episode and thank you once more Tash continue being the no nonsense taking badass that you are!
