We're taking over the @freesafelegal Twitter on Saturday evening! Join us from 7pm where we'll be sharing fun stuff about how we made How The Yes Was Won. Some cute pics of us, but mostly hopefully fun tips for anyone looking to do their own oral/folk history of Repeal.

After 3 years of work, all ten episodes of How The Yes Was Won are out now. It feels pretty amazing. It was a lot of work to get here but we've been really taken aback from the response. It's meant so much to have people we admire and respect share the podcast and say it's good!

Our podcast logo features what is left of this mural. Our aim with this podcast was to tell the full story of Repeal. The good and the bad. We wanted to show that you can’t paint over history, and this moment from the campaign is emblematic of that. Logo design: @wallhello

We started this podcast basically straight after the Referendum. We attended the protests and marches that took place over Summer 2018, asking people what it all meant to them, and what was still to be done. We also spoke with this really good boy at the March For Choice 2018

The icons @TippForChoice went back to recreate their 2017 Rock of Cashel direct action following the vote in May 2018 when the 8th Amendment was indeed Repealed. The original banner was made in 2017 by @Maebhcon. You can almost make out the people holding it for scale. It's huge
So many people put themselves on the line day in and day out for Repeal. @anitambyrne told us about the bravery required to do this in rural Ireland. Listen now wherever you find podcasts
