Road To Repeal

In this episode, we chat to former Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams. Like many of his generation Gerry grew up under the influence of the Catholic Church which shaped his views of the world as a younger man. In his first indepth interview on the topic, he gives fascinating insights into his personal journey to support and campaign for repeal of the 8th Amendment.

The referendum on the 8th Amendment has left a lot of men confused. Many are unsure how they should vote or even if they should vote at all. In this episode we tackle these issues headon by interviewing RTE pundit Richie Sadlier and former intercounty footballer & all Ireland medal winner with Donegal Eamon McGee. The two had fascinating insights into why you and your mates should vote Yes.

In this episode, we speak to Mary Favier, a GP in Cork with over 20 years experience. Mary, a member of Doctors for Choice, discusses the medical and legal implications of the 8th amendment for both women and doctors in Ireland. Later this week, we will be talking to RTE football pundit Richie Sadlier and former Donegal footballer and All Ireland medal winner, Eamon McGee.

The 8th Ammendment is always in the news but these reports rarely explain what exactly it is. Many of us have often felt we should know more but feel awkward asking someone else. This podcast explains everything you need to know about the 8th Ammendment. Where did it come from? What does it do? Was abortion illegal before the 8th Ammendment? What will happen if we repeal the 8th? We also look at what the government is proposing to replace the 8th Ammendment with and what that means for Ireland.
