She told her listeners that women shouldn't stay quiet.
"Make a fuss, tell everyone. If you can’t call it out, tell someone about it," she said.
"Don't let anyone ever say that you're hysterical, that you're making a big deal out of nothing, that you can't take a joke. That's not true.
"We do not have to be okay with what people are doing to us."
Co-host Emma Doran added she was "so shocked but not surprised" by the influx of stories, and added that she herself experienced "endless flashers" as a teen.
The Dubliner said: "At the time, we were all told that the general thing was it's harmless. He's harmless. It's harmless."
She told of her shock when a flasher once jumped out in front of her as she walked to her car.
"A flasher came at me. He jumped towards me. So, I actually jumped out onto the road."
She added that she reported the incident to the police, but that she was still "really, really nervous" about walking back to her car after the upsetting encounter with the flasher.
