In this episode, things take a turn almost immediately — welcome back to Out of Context Weekly Scenarios. From an emotional encounter involving koi fish to Shaun punching the back seat of his car over a Chelsea game, we’re starting strong with confusion, chaos, and questionable life choices.

Our Topic of the Week? The strangest things we’ve ever seen on public transport. From full-blown arguments over exact change to unexpected singalongs on late-night routes, we’re exploring the unspoken social codes, unpredictable characters, and pure madness that make Irish bus journeys what they are. If you’ve ever sat through a heated debate on the 145 or witnessed someone carrying a goat on the Bus Éireann, this one’s for you.

Then, in Pop Culture & Current Affairs, we’re discussing Catherine Connolly’s election as President of Ireland — what it means for the country, why it’s such a fascinating political moment, and how Ireland somehow always finds a way to surprise us.

And finally, we close with Your Distance Dilemmas — real listener stories of friendship, communication, and the challenges that come with growing apart or finding your way back.

As always, it’s just the two of us — talking nonsense, reacting to madness, and finding small bits of meaning (and laughter) in between it all.
