  • Ep 241 - Stop Tonguing Your Dog
    Apr 26 2026

    ‘Tis all go, girlies! The lads have been busy with touring, work commitments and buzzing social lives: so busy that Kevin has had to colour-code his Google cal. PJ was at his nephew’s confirmation this week, and was shocked to discover that kids aren’t getting slapped by the bishops as part of the ceremony any more. He’s even more shocked to learn that this was actually never common practice, and concludes that it must have been exclusive to the northside of Cork.


    This week, the topic is sequels, prequels and remakes. With the Devil Wear’s Prada 2 coming out soon, Kevin and PJ are wondering why every movie that’s released these days seems to be a sequel or a remake of a beloved classic. They talk about the best sequels of all time (Shrek 2, anyone?), movies they’d love to see remade, and pick their favourites from the High School Musical trilogy.

  • Ep 240 - One of the Boys
    Apr 19 2026

    Kevin’s keen to learn to drive, but with the fuel protests across Ireland this week, he’s not sure how useful it would be. The lads stand with the farmers, obviously, even if it did take PJ 5 hours to get from Cork to Dublin for Jordan’s wedding. Speaking of Jordan’s wedding, we find out more about PJ's antics on the stag, and why the wives and girlfriends at the wedding were fuming with him.


    The theme for this week is luck; the ‘lucky girl’ aesthetic is all the rage right now, so the lads have been wondering how much of luck is mindset, and whether they believe in lucky traditions and superstitions.

  • Ep 239 - Let PJ Speak
    Apr 12 2026

    The lads have absolutely had it with April Fool’s Day antics on social media, and think it’s about time we put a stop to it. In better news, this week Kevin’s family have been celebrating his brother’s engagement, which leads them to talk about the general mortification of Irish people doing… well, anything.


    The theme for this week is teenage discos, and we’re throwing it back to a time laden with the scent of hairspray and Lynx Africa. It might be a rite of passage, but the teenage disco brought with it a whole lot of anxiety and pressure to fit in socially. The boys hear wild submissions from the listeners, covering everything from the best way to sneak vodka into to the disco, and the girlies kissing record numbers of boys in one night.
