What’s in and out for 2025 / Where’s our free HRT?
Manage episode 460236583 series 88893
It’s a brand new year and to celebrate we’ve got a brand new segment to kick off the podcast each week. It’s our weekly news wrap covering the stories that affect women in Ireland and around the world. This week, Róisín Ingle is joined by Irish Times podcast producer Aideen Finnegan to talk about some of the stories that caught her eye this week and what she's been watching and listening to. They'll be discussing Meghan Markle’s new lifestyle series for Netflix (With Love, Meghan), the choice words that Pope Francis used to describe an order of nuns and why Elon Musk has been spewing hate and vitriol towards Britain’s safeguarding Minister Jess Philips over an historic grooming scandal in the UK.
Later on, Ingle is joined by pharmacist and presenter of the Wonder Care podcast Sheena Mitchell to talk about the “frustrating” delay in the Government’s roll-out of free HRT. Despite the scheme being labeled as “free”, Mitchell says women will still face many other associated costs when it finally launches.
Finally, Irish Times columnist Brianna Parkins fills us in on what’s hot and not for 2025 and shares how life has been since moving back to Australia last summer.
