From hormones and academic validation to body image and plastic surgery, eimear and I discuss the extensive horrors of being a teenage girl in a world that constantly tells us we’re not good enough.

hot girl summer prep: how to not hate yourself

In this episode Eimear and I unravel the positives of self employment like picking your own hours but also the downsides such as the unpredictability, no sick pay or safety and the constant questioning from boomers about the “trajectory of our career”. Living in a world driven by capitalism, it can be hard to feel proud of yourself for doing what you what you love when you’re not making the same salary as an accountant. I also delve into needing constant validation or approval from others to fulfil my insatiable desire to be liked - I cry in this episode too, let me know what you think :)

are my parents proud of me?

housemate horror stories 🤢

I have hairy armpits so I'm a feminist, right?

Hi everyone, I'd like to reiterate that this podcast is no way an attack at anyone who finds it hard to shop sustainably, it's more so a retort to the critique of sustainability as a whole and its general demonisation, which is taking us further and further away from a solution. I'm aware my point of view is from a privileged stand point but I'm directing this critical analysis as a whole to the developed, consumer based world, not to a particular class or type of person. The blame should be on larger corporations, shame and accountability should be put on fast fashion houses. However, this is near impossible to do if people will or have to continue buying from these places. The best form of protest or the equivalent of using your vote is to avoid buying from these places *if you can*, you'll know yourself if you could've avoided it. Purchasing is the equivalent of being complicit in their negative contribution if you can afford (financially or otherwise), to shop from elsewhere, unfortunately some people don't have an option. Being sustainable is about buying less, but before you reach that you have to change your buying habits or the direction of your spending. I myself over consume and am working hard to change it, but in the meantime I'm supporting independent and sustainable designers/businesses so I know I'm lessening the damage of my spending.Thanks so much for taking the time to listen and I hope you enjoy it or learn something from it If you can't love yourself how in the hell are you gonna love someone else can I get an amen up in here - The gospel according to RuPaul

dating disasters & internalised male gaze

The commonly used 'psycho ex' trope is often an escape route for the justification of irrational behaviour from a partner in a relationship or a breakup. Explaining both of our most confusing or lack of closure experiences in breakups, we dissect and discover how obscurity and sometimes insanity can derive from lack of love.

our worst heartbreaks

Hey guys! Hope you're all minding yourselves and doing okay during these uncertain times. There's no pressure to be your best self or be as productive as possible but try not to fast forward this period, take everyday as it comes and it'll be over soon. On this weeks episode (missing Ellie), I discuss my minor updates of my week as well as discussing my followers opinion or changes they'd like to see in Ireland in terms of socialism, education and the environment. It's hard for me not to politicise every issues in my life but there hasn't been a more clear alignment with political power and our livelihoods in every aspect.  I know discussing politics can rub people up the wrong away, especially the capitalist versus socialism argument, but remember if you're going to start an argument with me over dm, you'll have to wait a long time for us to have a public dance-off because of the lockdown, and that's the only way to settle this. Anywhoodle I hope you enjoy the podcast and remember to check in on your loved ones! Talk again soon x

we need a revolution

Hey guys, I really wanted this episode to NOT be revolved around the pandemic situation, but unfortunately, as I'm sure all of you can relate, it's all I can talk about. I am gagging for some goss off someone. I can't even vicariously live through someones else chaotic sex life anymore. Anyway, trying not to put a dampener on things I put my entertaining hat on to bring you this podcast: me talking shite for 40 minutes. Apologies for the rambling but apparently some of you freakazoids are into that sort of thing. Wishing you all the best and if any of you have anything to add feel free to message me on insta: @kee_mon Ellie and I will be meeting soon to record a pod on some non-coronavirus related shite talk next week. Hope you enjoy :)

masturbate don't contaminate

A very new on the scene, online sex community known as 'only fans' has taken the internet by storm by the independency and profitability of the platform. A website to sell nudes to monthly subscribers, chosen by you, taken by you and owned by you! For this interview I talked to Jasmin Heaney, first known for her ED recovery, now runs one of the most successful only fans accounts in Ireland. Throughout this podcast we uncovered the most asked questions; if her parents know, safety, nude leakage, relationships and future prospects. I really enjoyed this one so let me know what you think!

Rent prices, third level education tuition fees and the ever increasing cost of living in Ireland are at the forefront of issues and concerns for the people of my generation. On this episode of the podcast I'm joined with Craig McHugh, the Vice President of USI, Dublin region representative, who works closely with our country's minister for education on combating these issues.  With the upcoming general election, it is more important than ever to get involved in politics. "There seems to be a huge disconnect with the younger generations and politics in this country, when realistically it's us who's affected most", says McHugh. With the prevalence of the climate crisis and a combination of the length of time it takes for any changes to be made, the future of our generation has never seemed so daunting and hopeless, which highlights the importance of our vote.  If college tuition "doesn't seem that bad" to you, with a decrease in accessibility, especially for working class families, it ends up furthering the disparities and takes away opportunities of future decent work. In the long run this has a damaging affect on our economical growth and a perpetual increase in numbers of emigration.  I really enjoyed making this podcast, so hope you enjoyed listening!  Craig's socials: twitter @craigmchug          Instagram @craigmchugh USI socials: twitter @TheUSI                   Instagram @usi.ie

What is the future for students in Ireland?

Saoirse McHugh, who has been a force to be reckoned with since running for MEP as a Green Party candidate a few months back. Proving herself to be a voice of climate justice, equality and honesty, McHugh is now in the running for #GE2020 as a Green Party representative in the Mayo constituency and has been named as 'One to Watch' by The Irish Times. Catching the public's attention with thought-provoking outspoken appearances on Prime Time, calling out Peter Casey - to name one, her transparency and integrity has become an inspirational role model for myself and many of my generation.  In this episode we discuss many aspects of becoming a politician, from the perspective of McHugh who has proclaimed she 'never thought' she'd get into politics. We uncover the realities of election promotion budgets, how media can drastically sway opinions, sexism within politics, hate and much more.  Find Saoirse on twitter @saoirse_mchugh to find out more about her, or do your own research to find out more about her policies. There's definitely more to come from McHugh in the future.  Find me on:  Instagram @kee_mon Twitter @keelinmoncrieff YouTube: Keelin Moncrieff
