Ep 52 We Need A Hero : Superheroes/Heroines, Toxic Dumbledore & Barbara Heck's Herstory

In this episode, we are holding out for all kinds of heroes (and heroines). We report from Comic Con on female superheroes while Una Mullally reflects on the heroes of her childhood storybooks. We hear the story of a real life heroine, Cork woman Mary Harney who survived an industrial school to become a fire fighter and academic. And Rosita Boland tells us about the mother of American Methodism, Limerick's Barbara Heck.
