Talking Bollox Podcast

It's our 100th episode so we're having a bit of party. Dublin rappers Versatile - Casper Walsh and Eskimo Supreme - join us for their first ever in-depth interview.

They tell their story for the first time, from breaking new ground in Irish music with the incredible heights of their 3 Arena show, to dark days when they faced calls for their cancellation amid allegations of racism and misogyny.

And of course we couldn't have our 100th episode without the legend that is Willa White. He drops in and adds to the chaos the way only he can.

Maverick Sabre is one of the most talented and successful Irish artists of recent years and he joins the lads to talk about his rise in the music industry, struggling with identity between his Irish and English roots, and how sage advice and making the right moves at the right times helped him avoid potential pitfalls on the road to fame.

This week the lads answer your questions. Everything from how to set up your own podcast; the one musical artist they could listen to forever, and what would be your death row meal?

Neil Delamare is one of Ireland's best known and most successful stand up comedians and he joined us for what turned out to be a hilarious, interesting chat that covered everything from Ireland's greatest moments, to mysteries around the pyramids, Terence's obsession with JFK, and a very tricky zinger about time travel.

Missed the lads at EP?? No bother as in this episode we hear Talking Bollox live from Electric Picnic. Listen as the lads talk all about being backstage, the artists, the energy and a special guest makes an appearance too.

This week on the podcast, the lads are joined by the stars of The Two Norries Podcast, James Leonard & Timmy Long. They discuss what it was like growing up in Cork City, addiction, crime, mental health and how their podcast is their way of releasing stress and getting things off their chest.

With the week that’s in it, after selling out two nights at Vicar St faster than any other podcast in history, we’re putting out our most recent live show at the iconic venue. What a night this was! Recorded in front of a capacity crowd in August 19, 2022, the place was electric as always! We want to say a huge thanks to our guests on the night Marc O'Neill, John Connors, Dylan Moran and Ciaran Moran.

In a sold out live show at Vicar St the lads chat to Tallafornia's Marc O'Neil, Love/Hate star John Connors, boxing champion, Dylan Moran and some live music performed on the night by Ciaran Moran. They chat about life in Dublin growing up, boxing, reality TV and loads more.

This week the lads are joined by Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist Enda Murphy. His firsthand experience of having ADHD has given Enda a unique insight into the difficulties children and adolescence face in growing up. This insight has enabled him to translate complex psychodynamics into easily understood programmes for parents, teachers and health professionals. His understanding and ability to communicate is astounding and we learn a few things about Calvin and Terence too.

One of Ireland's greatest songwriters and one of Dublin's finest ambassadors joins us this week. Damo talks to us about everything from growing up in Donaghmede to making his break into music, his outlook and philosophy on life, his legendary gigs and cult following - and he has a zinger that leaves the lads completely stumped.

And, of course, Damo plays a few tunes for us - and he nearly takes the roof off the place.
