The 'not guilty' verdicts in the Belfast rape trial yesterday sent shockwaves across the country.  It was described on national television last night as 'one of the most high profile trials in the history of this island', and today we discuss the fall-out from it, and the lessons sport - and wider society - can learn.Sinead O’Carroll of thejournal.ie and Richie Sadlier are in studio to discuss the privilege of sportsmen, and their attitudes to women. Is the dressing room a breeding ground for toxic masculinity?

And we ask what can be done to educate young people, particularly young men, about sex and sexual consent.
