  • The Hunger, with Katriona O'Sullivan

    The Hunger, with Katriona O'Sullivan
    Apr 20 2026
    After being raised by parents with addictions, professor of psychology at Maynooth University, Katriona O’Sullivan turned her experiences into bestselling non-fiction book Poor. Her follow-up, Hungry: A Biography of My Body, explores how poverty, and the sexual abuse she endured as a child, have shaped her relationship with her body. Jen chats to Katriona about the vulnerability of neglected children and the adults they grow up to be, and the harm caused by society’s obsession with women shrinking themselves. Help and support is available for survivors of all types of childhood abuse, via the National Association for People Abused in Childhood. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Flicking #72: Left-Handed Girl

    Shih-Ching Tsou’s debut feature film caused a stir at Cannes, and tickled many a reviewer’s pickle, but flew under the radar when it landed on Netflix last November. A shame for many reasons, not least because it’s by a woman about women, as the iPhone camera tracks single mum Shu-Fen, and her two daughters – five-year-old I-Jing and university-aged I-Ann – as they try to make a fresh start in their home city of Taipei. What will Yosra and Hannah make of this refreshingly wang-light pick from Mick? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
