Con Air - The Banter Box

Janine McCourt and Daniel McGlinley join The Banter Box — two friends who’ve known each other for over 20 years and somehow still haven’t run out of stories… or insults. After becoming friends of mine through TikTok years ago, it was only right to finally get them both in the studio — and it quickly turns into exactly what you’d expect: mates absolutely roasting each other. From wild party stories and soiled tights, to nights involving the Giant’s Causeway Hospital, coming out moments, arguments, and nonstop slagging, this one feels like sitting in with friends who have far too much history together. Unfiltered stories, real friendship, and plenty of laughs from start to finish. ⸻ 🔥 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more episodes every week.

Episode #55 of The Banter Box is a pre-drinks special with Shona and Sarah Quinn before heading to the Stand By Me Ball. We get into formal disasters, behind-the-scenes influencer drama, getting ready chaos, and the kind of conversations that only happen before a big night out. It’s light, unfiltered, and full of craic before the glam kicks in. The Stand By Me Ball supports West Wellbeing, an incredible charity doing vital work in the community.

Episode #54 of The Banter Box is a Valentine’s Special, joined by Shona Quinn and Amy Braniff for a chat full of spicy banter, laughs, and real talk. We get into everything from TikTok Shop, content creation, and modern online culture, to lingering sets, relationships, and the chaos that comes with mixing work, socials, and real life. Light-hearted, honest, and very on-brand for Valentine’s — this one’s all about good craic and good conversation. Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be the same gifts every year. In this episode, we chat about trying something a bit different instead of the usual flowers and panic buys. Lovehoney currently have up to 50% off for Valentine’s Day, and you can use my code BANTERBOX for an extra 15% off on top. Discreet delivery and giftable options if you’re looking to try something new together. 👉 Shop here: https://lovehoney.co/conair_pc #ad #Lovehoney #ValentinesDay #Podcast

In Episode 53, we sit down with Darragh Ennis, better known to millions as The Menace — the brilliant quizzer from The Chase. But there’s far more to Darragh than elite general knowledge. We dive into his journey from contestant to Chaser, and how his scientific life at University of Oxford, researching insect brains, intersects with his TV persona. Expect laughs, fascinating insights, and plenty of quirky stories — covering his work with insects, how he remembers so much random information, his love of escape rooms, thoughts on AI and the youth of today, and what it’s really like juggling cutting-edge research with blockbuster TV fame. Whether you’re a Chase fan, a science nerd, or just love big brains and big laughs — this one’s for you.

The Banter Box Christmas Special – Christmas With the Quinns 🎄 For the Christmas special, it’s just me and my sisters — Shona and Sarah Quinn — settling in for the most nostalgic episode of the year. We chat about our favourite Christmas memories, the pyjamas that went way too far, and the moment we realised we all somehow shared the same childhood dream without ever knowing it. There’s the stuff we love, the stuff we can’t stand, and all the usual Quinn-family chaos in between. A cosy, funny, festive episode to wrap up the year — Christmas with the Quinns. ❤️✨ #TheBanterBox #ChristmasSpecial #QuinnFamily #ShonaQuinn #SarahQuinn #ConorQuinn #Podcast #ChristmasMemories #NorthernIreland

Our Derry girl is back in the seat after Big Brother — and this one feels special. ❤️

Jenny opens up properly about her time in the house: the real friendships, the fall outs, the pressure, the bits that never made the edit, and what the whole experience was actually like behind the cameras.

It’s mad hearing the highs, the lows and everything in between, and we’re genuinely buzzing we could play even the tiniest part in showing people the real Jenny — funny, sharp, grounded and genuinely one of the best.

One of the most honest chats we’ve had on the podcast yet. 🎙️✨

Episode #44 of The Banter Box welcomes travel content creator Dean McCrudden (Tick The Bucket).

In this episode, we dive into his craziest travel experiences, moments on the road, rave stories, and the lessons he’s learned along the way.
