This week on The Houli’s Hooley…

Paddy opens the show with a dream so vivid, so strange, it might require a sequel. Picture this: his ex-wife’s best friend’s father, a lake house barbecue, and a sudden tsunami that whisks the smug patriarch out to sea. There’s a Terry Bradshaw lookalike, some passive-aggressive banter about dental work, and a final demand to throw boat shoes into the surf—which Paddy flatly refuses.

All of it is proudly sponsored by the dream team: Fox’s Pizza, Flood Brothers Disposal, and Madden Funds—investing in dreams, even the weird ones.

From surreal to corporate satire, Paddy and Bill shift gears into the latest in LinkedIn lunacy—breaking down terms like “return on emotion” and “human cloud”. They explore whether today’s job market is more about storytelling than skills and ask the big question: is your LinkedIn profile just your one-man show?

Bill recounts his recent Cinco de Mayo pub crawl adventures, featuring multiple bars, one dramatic game of Uno, and a lot of questionable small talk. He also shares his recent trip to a Chicago Hounds rugby game, where the real spectacle happens after the final whistle—when both teams hit the town together in the name of sportsmanship and strong pours.

Finally, the lads close out with a reflection on Pope Leo XIII—a newly elected Chicago native. Could we be looking at the first pontiff with a beef sandwich in one hand and the catechism in the other?

Dream analysis, corporate jargon, pub crawls, rugby, and a Chicago Pope—just another glorious mix on The Houli’s Hooley Radio Hour.
