On this episode, Niall talks to journalist and commentator Laura Perrins about the murder of Henry Nowak, the public reaction to the case, and the growing political controversy that has followed. Laura recently wrote a strongly worded piece on Substack criticising media coverage of the case, particularly an Irish Times editorial that described the public response to Henry Nowak’s murder as “a rallying cry for the far-right.” Laura argues that the language used by some media outlets has focused more on the politics surrounding the case than on the brutal murder itself.

On today’s podcast, Niall is joined by Senator Sarah O’ Reilly of Aontú to discuss what many see as the growing erasure of women from public life and official language. The debate was reignited after an exam paper issued by the State Examinations Commission used the term “pregnant person” rather than “pregnant woman”. The Commission defended the wording as being “respectful and inclusive”, but critics argue it ignores biological reality and contributes to the gradual removal of women from language, policy and public discourse.

A listener contacted the show with a dilemma that has caused a major disagreement in her household. Her daughter wants to celebrate the end of her Leaving Cert exams by having a party at the family home. The problem? She wants alcohol to be available for her friends. The listener says her daughter is almost 17 and most of the teenagers who would attend are also 17. She has already spoken to some of the other parents and says many of them don’t see a problem with it. In fact, some believe it’s safer for teenagers to drink in a controlled environment under adult supervision than to sneak off somewhere else.
