The impetus for this Banter comes from our recent adventures with\u00a0The Anti Room<\/a>\u00a0podcast. We invited\u00a0Sinead Gleeson<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Anna Carey<\/a>\u00a0and their guests to host a live recording of their podcast about feminist issues at Banter\u00a0last October<\/a>\u00a0and it was such a success that we invited them back\u00a0last month<\/a>\u00a0to do another one.<\/p>\n

But it also got us thinking about why we never hear men\u2019s issues discussed so openly and freshly in the same way. We also wondered why when it comes to men\u2019s issues that the same tired, boring voices and agendas always hold sway.\u00a0It\u2019s A Man\u2019s World<\/strong>\u00a0will look at what it means to be a man in Ireland today, why men don\u2019t talk about issues which affect them and the huge benefits of actually discussing this kind of stuff.<\/p>\n

The lads:\u00a0Sean Moncrieff<\/a>\u00a0(Newstalk<\/a>),\u00a0John Buckley<\/a>\u00a0(SpunOut<\/a>), John Evoy<\/a> (founder\u00a0Irish Men\u2019s Sheds Association<\/a>) and\u00a0Damien Mulley<\/a>\u00a0(Mulley Communications<\/a>\u00a0and a zillion other things).<\/p>\n

The details: It\u2019s A Man\u2019s World will take place at the\u00a0Twisted Pepper<\/a>\u00a0(Middle Abbey Street), Dublin on Tuesday February 26. Doors open at 7.30pm and the Bantering gets underway at 8pm sharp. Admission is free, but you need to be signed up to the invite list which you will find\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Big thanks to Banter kitchen cabinet dude\u00a0Finian Murphy<\/a>\u00a0for the initial idea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
