In this episode, Shaun and Imran are back at it with the usual madness—talking shite, going on tangents, and somehow managing to land on a few solid points along the way. We kick things off chatting about Sinners, the new film that properly caught us off guard. The direction is class—dark, sharp, and stylish—and Michael B. Jordan is absolutely unreal in it. Seriously, he knocks it out of the park. Didn’t expect to be that into it, but here we are.

Then we get into the whole sober buzz. Shaun opens up about being off the drink and how that’s going. We dive into non-alcoholic beverages too—and look, we’re gonna be honest: we’re not really on board with them unless you’re using them as a stepping stone to cut back or get out of addiction. Otherwise? Bit pointless. Give us a sparkling water and move on.

And finally, we get nostalgic about passing our driving tests. Imran went straight for a chicken fillet roll (as you do), and Shaun’s still buzzing to get his physical licence in his hand. Freedom’s never tasted so good.

So if you’re up for movie chat, real talk, and the kind of stories that make you go, “Yeah, I’ve been there,” this one’s for you.

In this episode, Shaun and Imran are back with the usual madness—plenty of laughs, random tangents, and some proper head-scratchers. We kick things off with Finn’s wild revelation that Will Poulter might actually be Sid from Toy Story—yeah, the mad little fella with the skull t-shirt. Is it true? Probably not. But once you see it, you can’t unsee it. Absolute chaos.

From there, the chat turns to one of life’s big questions—should we grow our hair out? We get into the dodgy haircuts we’ve all had, the phases we’d rather forget, and Imran opens up about his truly tragic haircut history over the years. There’s also a bit about the sacred bond between an Irish lad and his barber—once you find your guy, that’s it, loyalty for life.

And of course, we couldn’t do an episode without chatting about the stuff only Irish people really get. We’re talking the deli counter rituals (a chicken fillet roll is a love language), the Late Late Toy Show and how it basically raised us, and loads more bits that’ll have you nodding along going, “Yep, that’s so true.”

So tune in for a bit of craic!

In this episode, Shaun and Imran take a nostalgic trip down memory lane as we dive into the world of classic soap operas that filled our screens when we were kids. From the overly dramatic storylines to those cliffhanger endings that kept us hooked, we revisit the shows that shaped our after-school routines and family living room battles over the remote.

We talk about the characters we loved, the ones we loved to hate, and those wild plot twists—evil twins, sudden amnesia, long-lost siblings—that made soap operas so addictive and, let’s face it, totally ridiculous in the best way possible.

We also explore the little things that drive us—and our listeners—up the wall. That’s right, it’s time to air out our pet peeves! From people who talk during emotional scenes to characters who never seem to age, we discuss what made watching these shows both a pleasure and a pain.

Tune in for plenty of laughs, guilty pleasures, and a deep dive into the wonderfully dramatic world of soap operas and our shared TV-watching quirks!

In this episode, Shaun and Imran discuss many topics on the podcast! We dive into the art of making the perfect cup of tea—the right temperature, the ideal steeping time, and the subtle ingredients that can elevate this simple beverage into a masterpiece.

From loose leaf to tea bags, we break down how small details can make all the difference in your tea experience.

We also explore the superstitions that creep into our daily routines. Whether it's knocking on wood, avoiding walking under ladders, or the odd rituals we perform without even thinking, we take a look at why we hold onto these beliefs and whether they have any real impact on our lives.

Then, we dive into some mind-bending conspiracy theories—this time, we’re talking about aliens and birds. Are birds really government surveillance drones? Is there something more to UFO sightings than meets the eye? We delve into the wild world of extraterrestrial encounters and question whether there's truth behind these outlandish theories.

Another hot debate—what’s the best way to brew your tea? Some say you should always use boiling water, others insist on a more gentle approach.

We weigh in on the best methods and see if there's a universal truth to brewing the perfect cup. And, of course, the topic of the week—what’s the weirdest superstition or conspiracy theory you’ve ever heard? We get into the strange beliefs, quirky habits, and bizarre theories that have stuck with us over the years.

Tune in for plenty of laughs, deep discussions, and a fresh take on all things tea, superstitions, and alien theories!

We dive into the positives and negatives of moving away from Ireland—the excitement, the challenges, and the unexpected surprises that come with it. From embracing new opportunities abroad to missing the comforts of home, we break down what it really means to leave the Emerald Isle behind.

We also explore the classic Irish dilemma: Is the grass really greener elsewhere? Some people move for better career prospects, others for adventure, and some just to escape the rain. But does the reality of life abroad live up to the dream? Or do homesickness and culture shock hit harder than expected?

Then, we take a look at the power of nostalgia. No matter how long you’ve been away, there are certain things about Ireland that just stick with you—whether it’s a proper cup of tea, the unique Irish humor, or the craic you just can’t find anywhere else. Are these small comforts enough to pull people back home?

Another hot debate—does moving away change you? Some say it forces you to grow and adapt, while others argue it can make you feel like an outsider in both your new home and the place you left behind. We weigh in on whether the experience of emigrating makes you more independent or just leaves you longing for familiarity.

And, of course, the topic of the week—what do our listeners think? We share real experiences from those who have made the move, the highs and lows they've faced, and whether they’d ever come back.

Tune in for plenty of laughs, deep discussions, and a fresh take on all things emigration, identity, nostalgia, and the never-ending question—should you stay or should you go?

We dive into the world of holiday seasons—the chaos, the stress, and the expectations that come with them. From last-minute shopping madness to awkward family gatherings, we break down why the most "wonderful" time of the year can also be the most exhausting.

We also discuss the phenomenon of the "Yup Bro"—you know the type. The guy who agrees with everything, offers zero original thoughts, and somehow still manages to dominate conversations. Is it just a lack of personality, or is there something deeper at play?

Then, we take a look at the future of daytime TV. With streaming services taking over and attention spans getting shorter, does traditional daytime television even stand a chance? Are talk shows, soap operas, and midday game shows on their way out for good?

Another hot debate—should you shower twice a day? Some say it's a must for hygiene, others argue it's excessive. We weigh in on whether a morning and night routine is necessary or just another societal pressure.

From overconfident shoppers who think they know more than the staff to the truly bizarre encounters that only seem to happen in retail, we unpack the chaos that comes with the job.

We also explore the concept of aura—what exactly is it, and why does it define certain people, places, and experiences? Whether it’s an unexplainable presence, a unique energy, or just a vibe you can’t shake, we discuss what makes aura so fascinating.

Plus, we take a step back to talk about our favorite places and characters that radiate aura. Is it a legendary film character, a historic landmark, or a place that just feels different? We break down the spaces and figures that leave a lasting impression.
