  • This podcast is a precis of one of the most disgustingly 'woke' shows on Irish radio thes days (and believe me there's a lot of competition in that area unfortunately).

    The other week I heard one of their TV reviewers complaining about a new American show aimed primarily at LGB teens.

    He said he was disappointed that the depictions on screen of the two teenaged gays only showed them kissing, and that he would have preferred to see them (and I quote) 'explore each other' more on screen.
