  • Funny Travel Stories
    2025/07/07

    In this episode, we’re talking about tipping in retail—should it be a thing or not? We get into the weird politics around it, whether it makes sense outside of hospitality, and the bizarre “tips” we’ve actually been given on the job.

    We also go down memory lane chatting about the mobile games we were obsessed with back in school—the quick, low-effort ones you could sneak in between classes or during a boring lesson. Stuff like 2-minute football games, 4 Pics 1 Word, Temple Run, Flappy Bird—the golden era of wasting time.

    That leads us into some proper nostalgia about how simple life felt back then—random cycles with friends, no plans, just vibes, and the freedom of not checking your phone every two minutes.

    Then we wrap up with our topic of the week: funny travel stories. Shaun and Imran both share one of their favourite travel mishaps, and we read out a few ridiculous stories from listeners too—think missed flights, hotel mix-ups, and one very unfortunate encounter with a local delicacy.

    No script, no filter—just good chat, questionable opinions, and a bit of chaos.

  • Things We Would Ban If We Ran The Country
    2025/06/30

    In this episode, we’re taking a trip down memory lane—and by that, we mean ranting about our retail days and why we fully believe everyone needs to do at least one year in the trenches. Character building? Absolutely. Trauma? Also yes.

    We swap horror stories from the shop floor, talk about the weird life lessons we picked up (like how to fake smile for 8 hours straight), and the kind of customers that honestly should’ve been banned from society.

    Then we get into Imran’s current obsession: Crumble Cookies. You know, those over-the-top, TikTok-famous, American cookie slabs that look more like desserts than biscuits? He’s deep in the cravings, considering international shipping, and Shaun’s just watching it all unfold in real time.

    We also chat about our elite cheat meals (because yes, we’re trying to gym and diet but also... life’s short), and round it all off with our topic of the week: what we’d ban if we ran the country. Vapes? Gone. People blasting music on buses like it’s a wireless speaker party? Get in the bin.

    No plan, no filter—just vibes, laughs, and probably too much oversharing. Standard.

  • Music Industry Q&A
    2025/06/23

    In this episode, we’re flipping the script—Shaun’s answering your questions, straight from our Instagram DMs, all centred around life in the music industry and his personal journey as a musician.

    Imran’s steering the ship, digging into the questions you sent in—from how Shaun got his start, to the biggest lessons he’s learned, and what keeps him grounded when the industry gets chaotic. We talk about the creative process, navigating burnout, making money (or not) from music, and how Shaun balances art with the pressure to stay relevant.

    No fluff, no industry PR-speak—just honest chat about the reality of trying to build a life around music, from gigging in tiny rooms to playing bigger stages, and everything in between. Imran doesn’t hold back with his own questions either, pushing Shaun to reflect on where he’s at now and what’s changed over the years.

    Come for the behind-the-scenes, stay for the oversharing—you know the vibe.

  • Sweet Dreams
    2025/06/16

    In this episode, we’re looking back—chatting pure shite in the best way—half sense, half nonsense, all heart, with Shaun reflecting on his time over in Thun, Switzerland visiting Imran.

    It’s been a minute since the trip, but the memories are still fresh—so we’re diving into some highlights, some odd detours, and the usual dose of chaos. No script, no plan—just a rambling catch-up the way only we know how.

    We get into our worst nightmares (literally), with Imran revisiting a terrifying sleep paralysis episode that still haunts him, and Shaun bringing the heat with his topic of the week: how long did we both spend with our partners before finally moving in together—and what it’s been like since. Spoiler: we’re both big fans of the domestic life.

    Come for the laughs, stay for the oversharing—you know how it goes.

  • Our First Live Podcast
    2025/06/09

    In this episode, we’re live for the first time—chatting pure shite in the best way—half sense, half nonsense, all heart, straight from Thun, Switzerland.

    Shaun made the trip over from Dublin for his first time in Thun, and what better way to mark the occasion than by answering your questions live on Instagram? No script, no plan—just the usual rambling with a live twist.

    There were tangents, dodgy takes, and plenty of laughs. A bit of nostalgia, a bit of chaos, and a lot of questionable opinions.

    As always—bit of craic, bit of madness, and hopefully a few moments that make you feel like you're third-wheeling a loud Irish ramble.

  • Summer Time As A Kid In Ireland
    2025/06/02

    In this episode, we’re back chatting pure shite in the best way—half sense, half nonsense, all heart.

    We kick off with a bit about the Irish language—how we spent years dodging it in school, and now we weirdly want it back. Blame the nostalgia… or Duolingo bullying us with that owl.

    Then we get stuck into how mad tech has gotten since we were kids. One minute you’re rewinding DVDs from Xtra-Vision, next thing Imran’s using ChatGPT to become some sort of spice wizard in the kitchen.

    From there, it’s the big hitters: childhood cereals (the sugary, probably illegal ones), why Irish food products are actually elite, and whether Shaun will ever finish Dexter now that there’s not one, but two spin-offs. Don’t hold your breath.

    And Imran wraps things up with a lovely one—summer as a kid in Ireland. Ice pops, sunburn, water fights, and that magic feeling of doing absolutely nothing for three months.

    As always—bit of craic, bit of chaos, and hopefully a few laughs. Stick it on, and feel like you're third-wheeling a loud Irish ramble.

  • Perception
    2025/05/26

    In this episode, Shaun and Imran are back chatting about everything and nothing, in the best way possible. You know the deal—some solid laughs, a few too many opinions, and probably something we’ll regret saying later.

    We kick things off talking about stand-up desks—are they actually good for you or just a fancy way to feel like you're doing something with your life while replying to emails you’re ignoring anyway? Somehow that leads us into a chat about people who are obsessed with counting their steps on smartwatches. No shade, but if your daily goal is 10,000 steps and you're pacing around the kitchen at 11:58pm to hit it... we need to talk.

    Then it’s the great headphone vs. earphone debate. Shaun reckons headphones make you look like you know what you're doing, even if you're just listening to ASMR soup videos. Imran is Team Earphones all the way—tiny, portable, and easy to lose in a hoodie pocket forever.

    We also get into a real one: shop assistants don’t care. At all. And we say that as two people who used to be shop assistants. Imran shares a few gems from his retail days that prove most complaints get filed under “mad stuff someone said and then walked out.”

    From there, we go full nostalgia talking about our Debs nights—peak chaos. Fake tans, sore feet, rented suits that never fit quite right. If you survived your Debs without a wardrobe malfunction or mild emotional breakdown, teach us your ways.

    We also ask the important question: where have all the white girl music nights gone? You know the ones—screaming "Mr. Brightside" with a pint in your hand, living your best emotional crisis. Secretly, lads loved them just as much as anyone else. Bring them back.

    Then we shout out our favourite gig venues in Dublin—the ones with dodgy acoustics but brilliant vibes, sticky floors, and that one bar staff who always gives you the look when you order something too fancy.

    And finally, Shaun gets deep with a chat about perception and self-perception—how we think we’re coming across vs. how we actually are. Spoiler: it’s not always matching up. It’s real, a bit reflective, and yeah… maybe just a tiny bit existential.

    Basically, it’s classic us—a bit all over the place, but always a good time. Stick it on and pretend you’re third-wheeling a very loud, very Irish catch-up.

  • Things I Don't Miss About Ireland
    2025/05/19

    In this episode, Shaun and Imran are taking a stroll down memory lane—10 years of friendship, laughter, and a surprising number of questionable experiences. It’s a wholesome one, but don’t worry, the chaos still finds its way in.

    We kick things off celebrating some of our biggest friendship wins over the last decade. Somehow that leads to us talking about how much we both love cooking for people—whether it’s a full-on feast or just showing off that one dish we’ve nailed. If you’ve ever been to either of our houses, you’ve probably been fed way too much and handed a drink before you could even sit down.

    Then things get a bit cultural as we break down the mystery of tipping in Ireland—how it actually works (or doesn’t) and why it's completely different from the tipping minefield in America.

    Also, can we all agree that getting into a car that’s been baking in the sun is a form of modern torture? We go in on that shared hatred—and yes, we have solutions.

    We also take a minute to reflect on Imran’s journey in content creation—how far he’s come, what he’s learned, and the stuff he’s proud of (even if Imran still doesn’t fully understand TikTok).

    And finally, Imran brings this week’s topic to the table: Things he doesn’t miss about Ireland. It’s honest, it’s a bit spicy, and it might just trigger a national debate.

    Basically: this episode’s got heart, heat, and a whole lot of laughs. Tune in—you’ll feel like you’re just hanging with two mates who’ve been through it all.
