Fox Force Five Podcast episodes
- Episode 22We're back! And full of the joys of Autumn. First up this week we talk about getting energised and some simple steps you can take to achieve this. Then Nicola talks to us about Netflix's Squid Game, which sounds a bit harrowing but also very entertaining. Then we talk the woman of the moment, or more likely for many, many more moments, Adele aka our Fox of the Week. Nic's follow this week is @jaythechou simple yet fun. And we wrap up with revelations as to how the Beatlres really broke up and the sad news of the passing of an Irish music legend, Paddy Maloney.

47 min - Episode 21A mix bag of stories this week. Guaranteed you'll find out something you didn't know - honest. We talk about the shocking domestic abuse rates in Ireland to start. Then move on to some telly chat, primarily on Sex Education but Vigil, Help and Bake off get a look in too. Then we hear about about an amazing Irish woman, fondly known as 'Mother Jones' she stirred things right up out in the U.S OF A.
Nicola talks to us about a cringe-inducing and funny follow @textsfromyourex and we finish up this week's podcast celebrating the awesome, genre-busting, cultural icon that is Nevermind, Nirvana's seminal album which is 30 years old this week.
Rockin' or moshing actually!

39 min - Episode 20We are happy-go-lucky this week (well not to start but the content is!). We kick off with recommendations for musicals you can go see in the next few months - hooray. Then Nicola talks to us about gangland Dublin drama Kin. Our Fox of the Week, is the super-human Emma Raducanu, who just won the US Open tennis at the tender age of 18.
Nicola talks us through some of the more, ahem, notable styles of this year's Met Gala and Kelly gives us the lowdown on why we may be seeing friends in low places in September 2022 as Mr Brooks returns to Irish shores - or will he?

46 min - Episode 19This week's podcast has highs and lows, a bit like life really. We start with good news around momentum gathering around the introduction of gender quotes. The National Women's Council is backing a draft bill going before government to introduce the quotas.
Then, in our telly talk, we discuss Turning Point, a new 9/11 documentary and then go off on a massive tangent about 9/11 in general. 20 years on and it's still a source producing new stories.
Our Fox of the Week is Dolores O'Riordan in the week that would have been her 50th birthday had she lived. Find out more about this singular Limerick woman and how her old bandmates are commemorating the occasion.
Our follow this week is for the unexpected, slightly disturbing @siblingsordating honestly mind-boggling stuff.
We round off this week's show with a chat about the lovely Sarah Harding, R.I.P. and delight in some thoroughly delightful news that is the return of our beloved ABBA.

42 min - Episode 18It's all go here on the Fox Force Five Podcast. We've got five things you need to know - like every week. First up this week is 'things not to do at work' - behaviour wise that is. Then Nic takes us through the very reliable, very funny Grace and Frankie, we also chat Glow Up Ireland and BBC's Vigil. Our Fox of the Week hails from the Victorian era, Dr James Barry, whose story is rather unique and was a scandal of sorts at the time.
Nicola recommends what is potentially one of the best accounts on social media and will give you all the feels whenever you need them @humansofNYC.
We finish up with the good news on live music coming back but the sad news of the passing of some music legends this week, Charlie Watts and Lee Scratch Perry.
Let us be your easy listening entertainment and take us wherever you go!

51 min - Episode 17The break is over - we are back on it! Well, we're trying anyway.
This week we bond across the Irish Sea as Kelly takes up residency in Edinburgh. The first thing you need to know this week is about cleaning - or decluttering technically - and how 15mins a day will make all the difference.
Nicola tells us about the finale to Love Island and we wonder if it's had its day. She tells us about Memories of a Murderer: the Nilsen tapes - and how it's pretty chilling stuff.
Our Fox of the Week this week is a man, but not just any man - Keanu Reeves, WHO WE LOVE.
Jump on social media and simply search 'overheard on' and let the lols roll. Nic gives us her tips on a few easy laughs online - no matter where you are!
And finally - music news looks at the problems with the live music and events industry not being opened up fast enough.
Get on down peeps.

We're back! After an unexpected hiatus we return full of the joys!
This week's podcast kicks off with how you can finance an alternative way of living i.e. not working and retiring early. Be prepared, it's not for the faint-hearted.
Nicola talks us through some must-see TV that's not new but essential viewing including The Handmaid's Tale and Ted Lasso.
Our Fox of the Week, is, of course, Simone Biles, hear about her background and some of the challenges she's come up against and why we think she is an awesome role model.
Nicola takes us through some Olympic-themed social follows that are worth jumping on before it's too late. The Kiwi rugby player I mention is actually Ruby Tui - sorry about the mistake! Another inspiring woman - here's the link to that interview she gave;

On this week's podcast we bring you news from Norway to start - they're introducing new legislation which will make it illegal to post content on social media that has been edited or photoshopped unless it is marked as so.

Our Fox of the Week this week is the wonderful Rosemary Smith, rally driver and all round gorgeous woman. Nicola gets a bit nostalgic and talks to us about @OldIrelandincolour and we finish up with lots of music news on The Killers, Marvin Gaye and Bell X1.
