Richie is joined by the Irish author and journalist John Waters. This coming Friday, Irish voters will be asked to vote on two very important constitutional changes. According to The Irish Independent:
"Éamon de Valera’s officials wrote the 1937 Constitution, with considerable input from the Catholic bishops, and it was narrowly endorsed in our first referendum in June of that year. Over its 87 years the document has evolved through Supreme Court test-case rulings and 38 referendums. But many people have long felt references to the role of women in the home and the family based on marriage are seriously out of line with life as lived in modern Ireland. These proposed changes have been talked about for decades – now it’s up to the voters to decide on March 8."
John Waters discusses the importance of these referendums with Richie.
John also discussed the state of fathers rights in today's society. There was a huge reaction to this. There will be a special show on the issue soon.
