    Reserves: Nessa Morrissey

    It's a GoLoud crossover with Nessa Morrissey from Unveiled joining Calvin this week!

    They discuss everything from the morality of hitting someone who is eating prawns on the bus to the legal definition of defamation.

    Calvin wonders if horror movies would be half as scary if the victims were more capable and Nessa asks if anyone remembers the hot felon whose viral mugshot transformed his life.

    With Halloween drawing closer, there are memories shared including dressing up as prostitute as a child and getting saved by Batman on a night out.

    Reserves: Darren & Joe

    While Terence recovers from being unwell, Calvin will be joined weekly by a rotating panel of guest hosts for a chat, a laugh and of course to answer some listener questions. First up - Darren Conway and Joe McGucken.

    Joe explains how he thinks he can run a marathon with no training and Darren thinks back to a great conversation he can't remember with a taxi driver. Calvin's desire to be able to moonwalk is revealed and in Terence's absence, they all cringe at one listeners tale of being chased down the street by a fellow customer after his card declined.

    There's also chat about the lads' upcoming live show in Vicar Street on Oct 20th and Calvin gives his honest review.

    Episode 192 w/ The Original Rudeboys

    The Original Rudeboys joined us this week and from playing ping pong with Snoop Dogg to getting a pair of sliders from Pharell - The lads reminisced on stories from their breakthrough and explained why they turned down the opportunity to open for Chris Brown.

    They told us how they got started in music and the real reason why they took their break. Since they stopped making music together, there's been struggles with addiction and grief but the lads have found their way back together and even play a new song for us Fragile which is out now.

    Bonus: A Neck like a Giraffe

    Even in Mario Kart, Terence prefers the passenger seat, but would that hold Talking Bollox back from winning a game against Stall It?

    Is there anyone that the lads could bare to be handcuffed to for a full 48 hours? And how far would they go for their dogs?

    Calvin reveals the true extent of his hatred of GAA jerseys. And you'll never guess who is going on yet another holiday..

    And if anyone has any contacts for President Michael D. Higgins, Terence is hoping to get him on the podcast..

    Episode 191 w/ Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden

    Boyzone's Keith Duffy and Westlife's Brian McFadden joined us this week and took us back to their beginnings and their meteoric rise to fame in the 90's as boybands took over the radios and music charts.

    Brian told us all about his decision to leave Westlife at the height of their success, and why there's no chance of a reunion.

    And Keith took us back to a sad time for Boyzone after the passing of Stephen Gately, and how the lads came together to grieve.

    The two ex-boyband members have now joined forces to create Boyzlife and are heading off on a world tour soon, kicking off in Ireland next January.

    Bonus: Red Red Whine

    We’re pitting Dublin’s areas against each other in the ultimate game of Top Trumps.

    Terence has made an overdue apology, and found himself (in an unrelated incident) surrounded by cowboy boots.

    There’s yet more censorship, as crisps join animals on the banned list, even as the banned list is breached.

    We hear speculation about strange superstitions, Calvin throws a tantrum, and Terry imagines being thrown from an upstairs window while stuck to a sofa.

    Bonus: One Small Stairs for Man

    It’s a week of friction and foolishness, as everything from the content of the bonus episodes, to the ranking of our top questioners, causes heated debate.

    A heartfelt query about the chance to measure moments of love in life ends up with a foolhardy attempt to gauge how many stairs it would take to reach the moon.

    A question about suspicious owls in Ireland almost sparks a war.

    Terence returns from yet another holiday and he’s got a mixed review of Tenerife for us, ranging from mixing with giants of the ocean to being too smart to accept an offer of a lift on a submarine.

    We attempt to break down a very select invite list for time on a desert island, with potential knock on problems for everyone involved.

    And Terry makes some big and very controversial statements about the ranking of our favourite question askers.

    Episode 189 w/ OisĂ­n McConville

    All Ireland winner and Gambling Awareness Trust spokesperson OisĂ­n McConville joined us this week.

    Growing up in Crossmaglen during The Troubles meant Oisín was used to bombs and army presence – His only escape was football and he threw himself into the sport with great success at both county and club level.

    When he was just 14 Oisín placed his first bet for 50p. By 17, he was being warned by his local bookie that he would develop a problem if he didn’t stop betting. Oisín didn’t take the advice and gambled for years more, borrowing, stealing and scamming to pay his way, until he realised he needed help after losing a £20,000 loan for a new business in one bet.

    A new show “The 3:30 at Cheltenham” which explores the issues of gambling addiction opens on the 16th of September in the Civic Theatre Tallaght before going on a national tour of all gambling addiction treatment centres in Ireland throughout October. Tickets are available here: https://www.civictheatre.ie/whats-on/the-330-at-cheltenham/
