Brothers, Guilt & The Snowman: When Family Messes You Up

Are we healing — or just performing pain for attention? This week on Not So Christian Brothers, Colm Hayes, Justin Caffrey, and Rebecca Horan get brutally real about the age of emotional exhibitionism. From crying selfies and mental health influencers to therapy addiction and Irish repression, no one’s safe. Colm thinks we’ve replaced resilience with victimhood, Justin argues for real healing, and Rebecca calls out the hypocrisy on both sides. It’s funny, uncomfortable, and more honest than most therapy sessions. Everyone’s sad. Everyone’s online. And everyone’s telling you about it. Colm’s had enough of performative misery. Justin’s defending therapy. Rebecca’s trying to make sense of it all. It’s Irish honesty at its finest — sharp, savage, and weirdly comforting. If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at a crying influencer (or been one), this episode’s for you. 🎙 New episodes every Thursday & Sunday — subscribe now so you never miss the chaos, comedy, or confession. ⏱️ Chapter Timings00:00 – 02:30: Oversharing, misery & the therapy epidemic02:30 – 06:00: Colm vs Justin — resilience or repression?06:00 – 09:30: Rebecca on empathy burnout & online sadness09:30 – 12:00: Irish mental health, male silence & dark humour12:00 – 15:30: Crying selfies & trauma as content15:30 – 18:00: When therapy becomes a brand18:00 – 21:00: Real talk — loneliness, loss & living offline21:00 – End: Sunday tease + a final jab at influencers 🎙 Next Episode: Sunday, 2 November 2025 📢 New episodes every Thursday and Sunday — on Spotify, Acast, Apple, and YouTube.

Sunday’s supposed to be holy — but not here. In this week’s Aftershow, Colm, Justin, and Rebecca dive straight into scandal, corruption, and why humans can’t handle power. It starts with Beckham’s affair, jumps to Epstein’s empire, and somehow ends up at Paul McCartney, Margaret Thatcher, and mommy fetishes. 💬 What they actually get into: Is Rebecca Loos brave or just bored?Why money, sex, and power always corrupt — and who’s worst at itJustin admits being “a power-hungry asshole” in his twentiesRebecca schools the lads on women’s real motivationsColm insists he’s “the least corrupt man alive” (no one believes him)And yes… it ends with another lesbian joke This is Not So Christian Brothers — unholy, uncensored, and impossible to stop listening to. 🎙 New episodes every Thursday & Sunday. 🗓 This episode: Sunday 19 October 2025.

This one’s an absolute ride. Colm gets accused of having “lesbian energy,” Justin tries to justify angry men, Rebecca calls out everyone’s hypocrisy — and somehow it all ends with aliens ditching Earth because we’re too boring. The gang dive head-first into: The rise of angry men and the backlash against “woke”Why politics is full of egos and zero compassionGolf wives, patriarchy, and public meltdownsWhether women make better (or worse) leadersHow the first murder — Cain & Abel — set the tone for humanity It’s blunt, funny, a bit mad, and exactly why you listen to Not So Christian Brothers.

If you think the world’s lost the plot — you’re not alone. Colm’s ranting about militant lesbians, Justin’s defending dictators (kind of), and Rebecca’s trying to hold civilisation together.

It’s Sunday, and the hangover from Thursday’s episode on forgiveness is still brewing. Colm Hayes, Justin Caffrey, and Rebecca Horan are back — a little raw, a little caffeinated, and absolutely not ready to forgive. From Taylor Swift and Mariah Carey to business betrayals, heartbreak, and hospital trauma, this aftershow turns reflection into revelation. Colm argues that anger fuels success, while Justin opens up about his past, therapy, and losing his son — and how forgiveness saved him. Rebecca keeps the chaos grounded as the conversation drifts from revenge to redemption, Catholic guilt to Protestant freedom, and even Trump’s ego to South Dublin snobbery. This is Not So Christian Brothers at its best: raw, real, and roaring with uncomfortable truths. 🎙 New episodes every Thursday and Sunday — subscribe now so you never miss the chaos, comedy, or confession. Ever been told to “let it go”? Colm thinks that’s nonsense. Justin says forgiveness is the only way to survive. Rebecca’s just trying to stop them from throwing microphones. In this brutally honest Aftershow, the trio dive into what really drives people — anger, pain, or peace? From family and faith to fame and failure, it’s the episode that proves growth doesn’t come from calm... it comes from chaos. Whether you’re the grudge-holder or the peacekeeper, this one will hit home. ⏱️ Chapter Timings00:00 – 01:00: Mariah Carey, Taylor Swift & the power of pop queens01:00 – 03:00: Forgiveness recap — Colm’s “never forgive” manifesto03:00 – 06:00: Anger as strength vs forgiveness as freedom06:00 – 09:00: Justin’s powerful story — grief, loss, and letting go09:00 – 11:30: Does anger make you successful?11:30 – 13:00: Rebecca opens up about bullying and resilience13:00 – 15:00: Irish education, class, and the South Dublin struggle15:00 – 17:30: Religion, repression, and the guilt that shapes us17:30 – End: Sunday scaries, leadership, and life’s endless lessons 🗓 Release Date: Sunday, 19 October 2025 🎙 Next Episode: Thursday, 23 October 2025 🔔 New episodes drop every Thursday and Sunday — follow on Spotify, Acast, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Can you really forgive and forget? This week on Not So Christian Brothers, Colm Hayes and Justin Caffrey go head-to-head on forgiveness — from global politics to personal betrayal. Is forgiveness a spiritual superpower or just psychological self-preservation? Rebecca tries to keep the peace as the lads spiral from Olympic doping scandals to Viagra sponsorships, Panadol hypocrisy, and the dark days of Christian Brothers education. It’s raw, unfiltered, and painfully honest. 💬 Expect heated debates, unexpected wisdom, and the kind of laughter that comes from old wounds and too much truth. 🎙️ New episodes every Thursday and Sunday — subscribe now so you never miss the madness. If you’ve ever struggled to forgive someone — or wondered whether forgiveness is overrated — this episode will have you shouting “Amen” and “Absolutely not!” in the same breath. Colm doesn’t buy the idea that we can truly forgive deep harm, while Justin argues that forgiveness is freedom itself. From Nelson Mandela to Netanyahu, from classroom trauma to childhood fear, the conversation hits nerves — and nerves hit back. It’s philosophical, it’s personal, it’s brutally Irish.
