Hello, and welcome back to Behind the Mic with me your host David Cotter.
This week's guest is fellow podcaster and host of Take 2: Debbie Shaw. Debbie moved to Ireland 4 years ago from Malta and from what I have witnessed from listening to podcasts and watching her content online she has integrated seamlessly into Irish culture.
The episode touches on topics such as podcasting, and her mental health struggles. Are podcasters the star of their own show? Should men have an opinion on female issues?
This podcast highlighted to me just how important it is to enter into conversations that sometimes feel like they are off-limits.
While it might feel at times like we should not (I am speaking as a white man here) enter into the hottest topics in the political and cultural landscape, after the last two podcasts I have recorded I realize it may be more necessary than I thought.
On Debbie's own podcast, she doesn’t shy away from any issue and she lives by that in her everyday life. She is laser-focused and determined to make her podcast one of the best. I learned a lot from her.
We will get to the episode shortly but can I ask something of all of you first? Thank you to everyone for supporting the podcast so far and I appreciate everyone that listens to the podcast. The response to this last week was great so let's try again. I appreciate the help so much.
The best way for you to support my podcast so that I can keep attracting guests and having better conversations is by dropping a rating of the podcast on Spotify and subscribing on youtube.
I am aware that everyone may not be keen on sharing the podcast on their story on Instagram or other platforms but it certainly helps raise the profile of the show. So a share would be greatly appreciated too if you think of it.
So now we are ready to begin episode 27 of Behind the Mic, without further adieu Debbie Shaw.
