SIM Ep 107 Pod 36: feminists, firefighting and films

In this episode, team Noonan, Dunleavy and Offord chat what's hot on DVD in the next few weeks with film buff Yosra Osman. Mick catches up with author Julia Pierpont to talk The Little Book of Feminist Saints and the fierce women that inspired it, and Hannah and Mick get all hot and flustered in the presence of Dr Sabrina Cohen-Hatton, deputy assistant commissioner of the London Fire Brigade, psychologist, author, TV muse and all-round brilliant bird, as she tells them what inspired her forthcoming book, Through The Fire, and explains the realities of being a firefighter. Jen's chatting football in Jenny Off The Blocks, Hannah's reached Bolt in Dunleavy Does Disney and there's all manner of wrongness on Tinder and coming out of John Humphry's mouth in the Bush Telegraph.
