I'm Grand Mam

Kevin’s keen to learn to drive, but with the fuel protests across Ireland this week, he’s not sure how useful it would be. The lads stand with the farmers, obviously, even if it did take PJ 5 hours to get from Cork to Dublin for Jordan’s wedding. Speaking of Jordan’s wedding, we find out more about PJ's antics on the stag, and why the wives and girlfriends at the wedding were fuming with him.

The theme for this week is luck; the ‘lucky girl’ aesthetic is all the rage right now, so the lads have been wondering how much of luck is mindset, and whether they believe in lucky traditions and superstitions.

The lads have absolutely had it with April Fool’s Day antics on social media, and think it’s about time we put a stop to it. In better news, this week Kevin’s family have been celebrating his brother’s engagement, which leads them to talk about the general mortification of Irish people doing… well, anything.

The theme for this week is teenage discos, and we’re throwing it back to a time laden with the scent of hairspray and Lynx Africa. It might be a rite of passage, but the teenage disco brought with it a whole lot of anxiety and pressure to fit in socially. The boys hear wild submissions from the listeners, covering everything from the best way to sneak vodka into to the disco, and the girlies kissing record numbers of boys in one night.

Kevin is on a crusade against culinary trends this week, and matcha and hot honey on pizza are in the firing line. PJ’s heartbroken that he failed his NCT (mainly because he chickened out of leaving a bribe in the glovebox), even though he’s loving booting around Cork in the car.The speed of the drive from the northside to the southside even inspires the lads to call for unification of the two sides of the river in The Rebel City.

The theme for this week is inventions, and the boys are unpacking some of the most influential inventions of all time. They’re also talking about inventions that we thought would take off but didn’t (3D glasses anyone?) and pitching some iconic ideas of their own.

The lads are buzzing after their first tour date, despite PJ losing his voice on stage and having had a gang of firemen round his gaff responding to a faulty carbon monoxide alarm. Meanwhile Kevin is lamenting the fact that Carmit has been excluded from the Pussycat Dolls reunion tour, but decides that if Kimberley can get her leg above her head and do her famous tilt, all will be forgiven.

For the theme this week, the boys are talking all about family feuds. From the Dunnes Stores saga to the world’s most famous elevator ride, we know that no family is immune to drama. They talk through some of the most common reasons for family fights, hear listener stories and discuss how to mend a rift.

Kevin and PJ have been in their best goth drag this week, and they can’t stop thinking about how hot they both looked in black eyeliner! Getting their makeup done makes them think back on their experiences with stage makeup as children, and they also start planning a charity drag night: watch this space, girlies!

For the theme, inspired by their upcoming Happy Campers shows, the lads are discussing all things tours: tour life, venue choices and the highest grossing tours of all time. From Taylor Swift to Coldplay, they can’t help but wonder what these artists are doing with all the millions and billions of bobs they’re making from touring the world.
