At last, it’s here! Our fourth podcast is longer than usual – that’s because it was a special live event in association with Banter. Hosts Sinéad Gleeson and Anna Carey were delighted to welcome our very special guests Miriam O’Callaghan, Maeve Higgins and Martina Devlin, who joined us in front of a lively and enthusiastic audience at Dublin’s Twisted Pepper to discuss the state of feminism in 2012, the importance of role models, women in the public eye and attitudes to traditional feminine pursuits. You can subscribe via iTunes, or simply listen here.
Enjoy!
EDITED TO ADD: So many people have been listening to the podcast, we’ve exceeded our bandwith allowance! So we have to take it down for a bit. But never fear, it’ll be available again in the future.

The second Anti-Room podcast sees hosts Sinéad Gleeson and Anna Carey joined by Nadine O’Regan, Claire Prior and Karyn Moynihan to discuss gender quotas in politics, whether ladymags are worth reading, what messages lenient sentencing for rape and sexual assault send to victims, and the power and charms of the bonkbuster (and why Lace is more entertaining than 50 Shades of Grey).

Some final house-keeping: earlier this summer, we held a special film club where we had a raffle to help raise money for Somalian famine aid. We finally got around to dropping the proceeds - €387 -into Oxfam, who were delighted and presented us with a receipt. Thanks again for all the prizes, donations and to those who bought tickets.
That’s all, folks.
