This week on Alive and Kicking Clare McKenna chats to Laura Dowling - known on social media as the fabulous pharmacist - about the misinformation being spread online and the difficulty in having fair and balanced debate concerning various health issues.

Pat Towey, Chairman of Ballaghderreen Mens' Shed joined Clare to talk about the importance of mens' sheds in the local rural communities up and down the country and how these safe spaces allow men to come out of their shells.

The issue of burnout is the focus of psychotherapist Siobhan Murray, and Clare spoke to her about her book 'The Burnout Solution'.
