EXTRA JUICE: "I feel like I'm being gaslit into staying..." #56

DJ and Radio Presenter, Marty Guilfoyle joins us this week to talk about nightlife culture. Is the drink and drugs scene prevalent in Ireland? Do people feel pressure to consume alcohol or drugs to enjoy a night out these days? What is the future for Irish night life with so many venues shutting down? Marty also tells about the drama he found himself in surrounding the GOAT House, and goes through some of his experiences playing different venues at home and abroad as a DJ. Trigger warning: This episode includes conversations around food, eating disorders, exercise and body confidence. It is discussed from 53:20 in our Secrets From The Stalls segment.

How do you help someone who can't see they need help with their anxiety and behaviour towards people? Should you feel worried about another girl catching your partner's eye? And should you wait for the man you're meeting to separate with his wife like he said he would, or are you just holding out false hope?

Charleen explains the full story about how she got to sing with Rita Ora.

And do you cut off a guy that is giving fear of commitment vibes, or try to navigate the chemistry?
