This week Kevin and PJ are coming to you live from The Spaniard in Kinsale for a special bonus episode brought to you by Guinness 0.0, celebrating the start of the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival. Surrounded by jazz-goers and good vibes, the lads chat about the origins of the festival, share their early memories of celebrating the Jazz and issue a gentle warning about the perils of dating a musician. They also read some listener stories from Cork Jazz weekends gone by including iconic tales involving a brass band on top of a bus and there's even an impromptu performance from a stunning jazz singer.

This week Kevin and PJ are going full Most Haunted as they join Matt and Tanya from the Cork Supernatural Society for a paranormal investigation in the Convent of Mercy in Cobh. They get to grips with all the ghost-hunting gear, find out which spots in Cork are the most haunted and spend most of the night gasping over the convent’s interiors: the floors, the spiral staircase, the crown mouldings… stunning!

PJ’s after getting a new couch but has enforced a strict “no sex on the new sofa” policy because it was pricey girls. He also confesses his deep love for waffles while Kevin argues there’s something inherently Protestant about the smiley-faced ones. The boys then dive into the dark world of doom scrolling as their screen times hit new highs, leading Kevin to realise maybe it was a good thing he never got that iPad after all.

Put your paws up! This week Kevin recalls a trip to a fancy café where he wasn’t being taken seriously, so naturally he decided to draft a fake invoice for €196k to assert dominance. The lads also chat about the unique joy (and silent panic) of seeing your friends in a show they’ve made themselves because what do you say if it wasn’t great? To top it off, Kevin’s just seen Lady Gaga on the Mayhem Ball tour and his life will never be the same again. Luckily for PJ (and the rest of us), he took notes.

This week the boys talk suds, sweat and split ends. PJ opens up about a traumatising childhood trip through a car wash that has meant he typically opts for a manual wash vibe which Kevin struggles to believe. Meanwhile Kevin’s done a Hyrox event and bleached his hair in the same week but he swears he’s not having a breakdown. The lads also debate the burning question: do blondes really have more fun or is it just bleach-induced delusion?

Kevin and PJ have a message two important messages to share with the men of the world; stop making your noses smaller and start smiling more. It's that simple really. For the theme they dive into the moments, trends and shows that should have been bigger but somehow weren’t. From missed cultural waves to pop groups that fizzled out, the boys unpack why certain things never got the spotlight they deserved. Was it bad timing or a lazy marketing campaign? Or was it just Louis Walsh acting the ejit? Perhaps it's a combination of all of the above.

PJ is back on his yoga buzz which Kevin isn't too pleased with as he doesn't want PJ to become more flexible than he is. They get into a discussion about instances where they had to whip the bob out and ask for the manager and go full on Karen because though they don't believe the customer is always right, when they're the customers, they are always right. As it's September and kids have gone back to school Kevin and PJ read out submissions from teachers to see if there's anything they'd like to get off their chests.
