Talking Bollox Podcast

This week the lads are joined by Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist Enda Murphy. His firsthand experience of having ADHD has given Enda a unique insight into the difficulties children and adolescence face in growing up. This insight has enabled him to translate complex psychodynamics into easily understood programmes for parents, teachers and health professionals. His understanding and ability to communicate is astounding and we learn a few things about Calvin and Terence too.

One of Ireland's greatest songwriters and one of Dublin's finest ambassadors joins us this week. Damo talks to us about everything from growing up in Donaghmede to making his break into music, his outlook and philosophy on life, his legendary gigs and cult following - and he has a zinger that leaves the lads completely stumped. And, of course, Damo plays a few tunes for us - and he nearly takes the roof off the place.

The two lads sit down for a catch up and to take questions from listeners. We cover everything from why the Garth Brooks gigs have Terence living in a state of fear, the potential to run away forever to Sweden, our dream superhero powers, and what advice we would give to our 15-year-old selves. Plus there is some quiet reflection on addiction and recovery, as a big month passes.

John is one of Ireland's most famous actors and he's never been scared of voicing his opinion, which has often led to controversy. He came in to chat with us and for the first ever he talks about it all - from politics to cancel culture, to suicide, career success and personal breakdowns - and how acting saved his life more than once. Above all though this one was a great laugh, and we made sure to ask what it was like to kill Nidge.

Shauna Bannon is one of the lading faces of Irish MMA and her personal story is one of incredible determination in pursuing excellence, as she aims to reach the MMA by the age of 30. She joined us to talk through her journey to mixed martial arts, through a career in kickboxing that started age 3 and ended up with world titles. And to go with it all that she talked to us about what it's like chasing that dream while being a single mother, and handling the tough training schedule with raising her son.
