Wow. What a weekend. The Eighth Amendment has been repealed by landslide. The Irish people spoke up emphatically for a woman’s right to choose.

Episode 7 - #REPEAL - May 18, 2018
We knew we couldn’t let May go by without an episode focusing on a topic that’s a constant pulse in our hearts and heads: the #repealthe8th campaign. With a week to go until the polls open, Ellen Quinn-Banville shares her own abortion story with us - and we hear what it takes to turn the seed of an idea into a global campaign from Sarah Nangle of the Abortion Rights Campaign.

Do you even influence? There's been a lot of conversation abounding about influencers using their platforms to talk about the referendum. Is it their duty to speak up? We figured we had to hear it from the horse's mouth so this week we have the king of Snapgram – this is what he was recently described as in a shopping centre, we know our Kik from our QQ – James Kavanagh along for the ride. Also influencing us this week is our pregnant pal Vogue Williams, who's delving into what it means to be pregnant and pro-choice.
