The Women's Podcast

This week's podcast was recorded in The Irish Times as part of Culture Night in association with the Herstory movement. In what is the first of a series of Herstory Salons, our panel included Irish Times columnist and playwright Hilary Fannin, history lecturer Dr Jennifer Redmond and Professor Linda Doyle of Trinity College Dublin. They discussed the significance of salons for women throughout history, the thrill of rediscovering lost stories of women and the importance of women engaging in the latest technological developments including the Internet of Things. Presented by Kathy Sheridan there is music from MayKay of Fight Like Apes (Kathy's daughter!) plus eloquent exchanges of views on everything from iconic female musicians to #WakingTheFeminists.

It's 10 years since The Irish Times moved from Fleet Street in Dublin to our current offices in a shiny tower of glass on Tara Street. To mark the move, we invited some of the most talented journalists from print, online and broadcasting to tell us the stories of their careers. In the first of our Story Times episodes hosted by Kathy Sheridan, Olivia O'Leary, Kitty Holland, Anne Harris. Bairbre Power, Catherine Cleary, Dearbhail McDonald and more tell us the stories that changed the narrative. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
