Potholes & Penguins

Like Prince Akeem of Zamunda in Coming to America, Ireland needed to go to Murrayfield today and find themselves. And like Eddie Murphy in that film, if Tadhg Furlong could have played every position himself today we’d have hammered them. We shallow end flop into the weekend of 6 nations, discuss slagging etiquette and put our hands up for specialist coaching of the Irish team.

On this week's show Trimby compares being an ulster fan to that of Nirvana's MTV Unplugged in New York. It starts with creative genius, continues with inspirational hope and ultimately finishes with shooting yourself in the face. Barry joins us in the middle of his 4x4x48 challenge run where he hopes to grow a moustache as powerful as Donal Lenihan's and have similar width of hip.

Today’s show is all about instinct. How instinctive is a tweet or French refs bias or Italy being shite and loads more.

On today’s show Alan Queeny tries to get us cancelled but instead we renounce the Monarch & will only take things seriously if it involves getting into nightclubs for free. Trimby looks at Craig Casey like a plastic bag in the wind and we commit to running 50 miles in as many hours for some unknown reason. 🕳🐧🚀

Wales are Red, France are Blue, Ireland or Italy for the wooden spoon. We dissect Ireland’s narrow loss to France and where we go from here. Its a heartbreaking Valentine’s Day for Irish rugby but sure we can at least take comfort in knowing crucifixions are completely out of fashion

In the year of our lord 2021 Penguins of Scotland, starving and outnumbered, waddled the fields of Twickenham. They fought like Barry on yokes, they fought like Scotsman and won their freedom forever. Or until next week when they get beaten by Wales. In other news Paul O’Connell has Billy Burns Hung drawn and quartered while Peter O’Mahony now lives in a tower like Robert the Bruce’s ould lad who had leprosy.

On today’s show God visits Barry and offers him a €4 pint in the Galwegians Club house if he keeps his shit together for 2 more months. Trimby may have beat the All Blacks but can he build a Patio? The answer is no. We have Darragh Fanning on to tell us why Mary’s are sound and Dermie sorts through all the latest correspondence.

On today’s show we discuss the difference between snow day in Munster & snow day in Leinster, the striking similarities between the lives of Britney Spears & Johnny Sexton & how a visit to A&E makes Barry very unhorny

On today’s show we predict roaring 20’s levels of craic when all this ends. Barry and Trimby take on Richard Harris and Peter O’Toole as mentors while Dermy takes to expressive painting in a field with a bodhrán and the sounds of frolicking foxes. We have Garryowen stalwart Paul Nevil on to talk AIL Rugby and how he made an Oscar winning actor cry.

On today’s show Dermy the shamanic bodhrań boy helps us visualise the Lions 3rd test in Croke park thanks to the new President of Ireland Paul O’Connell single handedly vaccinating the entire island. Trimby tackles Trump, Twitter and hair bands while Barry bores us to death with his latest hot tips on how to last lockdown
