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.

A cynical and disdainful critique of the "living in the moment" life coaches and their kernels of truth.

We discuss our relationships with advice, including unsolicited advice, and our good and bad experiences with advice. We advise you to listen, and if you take our advice, you won't think twice about biting your tongue or something else that finishes this sentence...

What is a shit friendship? When is it time to call it quits/pull the plug/put it out of its misery? We discuss a couple of examples of shit friendships from our lives, and how they eventually played out.

On Episode 3 of Feckology, we discuss the concept of over-friendly waiting staff, who in their efforts to make you feel at ease, can conversely make you feel ill-at-ease. We also cover off other ostensibly customer-friendly measures introduced in recent years in Irish pubs, which only detract from the customer experience.

How do you feel when someone in a pub/cafe/food court/saloon asks you to watch their coat/bag/seats/anvil while they disappear for an indeterminate amount of time?

Placing importance on the unimportant, your hosts Traynor and The Big Mouse chew the fat over this frustrating situation.
