Feckology

On the latest episode of Feckology, we address listener feedback to the last few episodes and also discuss The Human Centipede that is the housing market in Ireland!

We discuss how people are listening to music through snippets, reviews, memes, and mimes. Do songs matter anymore? Does connection with the artist matter anymore? Is music on the decline, or is this weird shit just a natural evolution enabled by technology?

Traynor reflects on a recent run-in with an estate agent where he lost his temper and asks: am I the asshole? The Big Mouse shares a story from a recent football match where things also got heated. We both ponder: is it better to express anger in the moment, or to wait, and let cooler heads prevail?

We chat about how strong preferences in art and music dwindle as you get older. This can free you up to like things you previously would have despised. We also discuss running out of podcast material and the Golden Goose Model!

When will the CPCC ever let us be? When will be free? Can we just pop in for a metaphorical cuppa tea, or do we need to always listen intently? Join us as we attempt to answer these questions. Thank you, Listener!

On the latest episode of Feckology, Traynor and The Big Mouse discuss things that have occurred in society/technology/their personal lives in the last 20 - 30 years, that would have surprised younger versions of their selves. Featuring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Demolition Man, Jedward, and Dustin The Turkey!

We chat about "one-sided" social media relationships, and our experiences with how we present our personalities to others, online and offline.

In today's episode, the Big Mouse and @feckinmetalcast reflect on the Decline of Drinking Culture including changes in how we socialize, consume entertainment, pursue fringe hobbies, and of course, meet people of our chosen sexual orientation (less caution to the wind, more safety, more online dating). Are things better or worse for young people - we don't know, do you, Listener? Do write into us!

On this episode, Traynor and The Big Mouse reflect on growing up attending single-sex primary and secondary schools in Ireland, and how it affected their abilities to interact with the opposite sex.
