Not so Christian Brothers

Can writing down your goals actually change your reality, or is it just a glorified to-do list? In this Sunday After-Show, Justin Caffrey, Colm Hayes, and Terry Tech dive into the mechanics of manifestation. Justin shares his non-airy-fairy, pragmatic 26-step morning routine, explaining how establishing a clear "North Star" aligns your focus and actions. Meanwhile, Colm reflects on breaking out of life's repetitive roundabouts and putting together a concrete life plan following a year of massive personal change. The lads also look at Lucy Kennedy’s new chat show Unfiltered, debate classic TV hosts from Parkinson to Dame Edna, and walk down memory lane with their very first record purchases. Plus, Justin reports back from his new home in Malta, where the kitchen layout finally settles the viral debate over where Catholics and Protestants store their bread-toasting appliances! 🍞 TEFAL TOASTER GIVEAWAY UPDATE! 🍞The team announces the second winner of the premium Tefal toaster giveaway, Sharon McGinty!

Making life-altering decisions is never easy. In this week's episode of the Not So Christian Brothers, Justin Caffrey dials in from a sweltering hotel room in Malta to explore why so many people get trapped in indecision. What starts as a debate on business choices turns into a deeply personal conversation when Colm Hayes reveals he is facing a massive crossroads: deciding whether to sell his family home in South County Dublin. Together with Terry Tech, the brothers discuss the heavy emotional weight attached to property, navigating grief, and managing room-by-room triggers after losing a loved one. Justin offers sharp, psychology-backed advice on why holding back often does more harm than good, while Colm weighs the bittersweet memories of his house against the promise of a fresh start. Plus, Justin and Colm end up unofficially putting both of their homes on the market live on air! 🍞 THE NATIONAL TEFAL TOASTER GIVEAWAY CONTINUES! 🍞Following the announcement of our first winner, Eleanor, we still have TWO top-of-the-range Tefal toasters left to give away!

But do not worry if you missed out—there are still TWO more premium T-fal toasters left in the studio giveaway! The conversation kicks off with family memories, as the brothers recall an eccentric uncle who promised an inheritance for fifty years, only to leave behind a pair of driving gloves. They explore the strange phenomenon of naming all your children the same name, before shifting to modern technology and interrailing across Europe. Justin shares how his son navigates major European cities using TikTok as a real-time Lonely Planet guide, leading to a debate on why younger generations prioritise experiences over buying physical items. Plus, the lads review Season 5 of The Bear, discuss restaurant culture, and address the podcast's rapidly growing male viewership! 🎁 THE NATIONAL T-FAL TOASTER GIVEAWAY CONTINUES! 🎁We still have TWO Tefal toasters to give away over the next two Sundays!To enter, make sure you like this show, subscribe to the podcast, share the episode, and tag a friend in the comment section!

What happens when your bike lock jams outside the 40 Foot and you have to walk back through Woody's with a pair of bolt cutters while wearing a helmet so you don't look like a thief? Colm Hayes opens this week's main show with another classic "Larry David moment," while Justin Caffrey details his week of extreme ketogenic eating—which involved eating nothing but sardines for three days straight. The conversation quickly shifts to music nostalgia, covering Stevie Nicks’ iconic guitar riff on Edge of 17, Beth Orton's emotional new release The Ground Above, and the legendary studio documentary detailing how Fleetwood Mac made Rumours. Later, the lads address a viral LinkedIn post written by Justin about raising children and navigating the "empty-nest" transition. When your kids leave for university, do you sit around waiting for them to visit, or do you completely reinvent your life and your marriage? The team dives into relationship dynamics, the myth of chasing non-stop happiness, and why living strictly "in the moment" might actually be overrated. 🎁 THE NATIONAL TEFAL TOASTER GIVEAWAY IS STILL ON! 🎁Tefal was so impressed with the community response that they offered to send a 40-foot lorry of toasters!

Could Terry’s narrow feet be the next viral sensation? In this week’s after-show, Colm Hayes, Justin Caffrey, and Terry "Twinkletoes" Tech return for an unfiltered Sunday morning session. The studio kicks off with a hilarious look at Terry’s growing fanbase—complete with a live foot inspection, discussions on shoe sizes, and an unexpected proposal to launch a dedicated foot-focused channel! The conversation then takes a nostalgic turn back to North Dublin. The brothers recall running cross-country at Santry Stadium, surviving physical training sessions, and getting chased through the woods by local Christian Brothers clad in full religious habits. Terry reveals he almost pursued the priesthood himself, sparking a sharp debate on church rules, Anglican loopholes, and the historical impact of Vatican II when Latin mass was phased out for local dialects. Later, the lads dissect high-profile public figures turning to faith during public scandals, billionaire "hedging" bets on the afterlife, and why psychological research suggests that regular quiet reflection and prayer can actually improve mental health and longevity. 🎁 THE NATIONAL TEFAL TOASTER GIVEAWAY IS STILL ON! 🎁Don't forget that we are giving away THREE top-of-the-range Tefal toasters (worth over €100 each)!
