We’ve got a jam packed episode for you this week, kicking off with a fascinating interview with Indian theatre artist, Mallika Taneja, who is bringing her show ‘Be Careful’ to the Dublin Theatre Festival next month. Running from the 7th to the 10th October, the show is a satirical piece that challenges our notion of safety in public spaces and addresses attitudes towards women and girls in India and elsewhere. See DublinTheatreFestival.ie for tickets. 

Later on, Róisín Ingle is joined by Laura Dowling, aka The Fabulous Pharmacist to discuss her new book Love Your Vulva. It’s an open and empowering guide to women’s intimate health, which covers everything from vaginal dryness to grooming your bush. Dowling explains the inspiration behind the book and why we should all be getting to know our vulvas better. 

But first, Irish Times opinion editor Jennifer O'Connell is here to discuss the biggest news stories of the week including Trump’s controversial advice to pregnant women, why everyone's talking about Maria’s Steen’s Hermés handbag and Tuesday’s nail-biting finale of Traitors on RTE.
