  • Episode 223 w/ Doireann Garrihy
    Jun 26 2025

    Doireann Garrihy was our guest this week and took us back to the start from her dad's flirting tactics that helped win over her mam, to her famous godfather. She also told us about her time studying drama, blowing up on Snapchat and more recently, her decision to walk away from a successful breakfast radio show on RTÉ.

    In between bleeps, Doireann told us who her favourite podcast guest was and how she found out she offended someone with an impression online.

    She also did her best to teach Terence to pronounce her name and reacted to the landmark case against Tattle Life.

  • Bonus TBX: The Quizmaster Strikes Back
    Jun 25 2025

    We’re bringing you a very special extra episode this week, and giving you a peek behind the curtain at what goes on over on TBX. For the very first time, and just this once, we are bringing a TBX episode to everyone for free.

    Last month we ran a couple of quizzes on TBX, this episode was the second and the most chaotic. Things got out of hand and the quizmaster (Terry) lost control. What followed was some of the most ridiculous, chaotic and competitive moments we’ve had in the studio.

    This is an episode TBX listeners loved and we’ve decided to share it with everyone, partly because Terry wants the world to agree he’s the premier quizmaster of his generation, and partly because Calvin wants to gain support for his claims he was robbed.

    For more of this (plus full video of the main episodes, and a lot more) you can sing up to TBX for just €4 a month. Go to GoLoudPlayer.com/thegaff for more info.

  • Bonus: Eat, Pray, Fear
    Jun 24 2025

    Would it be better to be feared or loved? Does it matter if you’re a podcast host at a live show, a football manager or a maniacal dictator?

    In a bout of curious historical trivia we get a brief chat about OJ Simpson and some fascinating and farcical insights into a little known element of 9/11.

    There’s questions about starting a business, pissing every minute of the day and a heated debate over what counts as a sauce.

    There are bad ideas about delivering ice creams and an unanswered question about the existence of one of Ireland’s most beloved ones.

  • Episode 222 w/ Killian Phillips
    Jun 19 2025

    Just weeks after his debut for the Irish senior squad, Killian Phillips joined us in studio. He told us what it means for him to play for his country and how he always told his late granddad that he would represent Ireland one day.

    Killian's road to professional football wasn't always straightforward and he took us through his career from Sunday league to playing against clubs like Liverpool and Manchester United. He also told us how he went from sitting on the bench in the Premier League to being searched on the bonnet of a Garda squad car within 24 hours.

    And Killian revealed a big secret and put an end to a mystery that has haunted Terence for years!

  • Bonus: Beeter Call Saul
    Jun 17 2025

    We get unverified news that dogs are evolving in an environmentally conscious way, and seagulls are eating fancy ice creams.

    We hear about some very strange, and shameful, food eating habits this week.

    Calvin wants to know what the hierarchy is on the bus, between man, woman, child and pet.

    He also makes a few dog jokes, and dad jokes, that cross the line.

    We’re very aware we’ve been conned into breaking our own ban on animal talk, and we can’t hold ourselves back from somehow talking about a bee in a neck brace taking a claim against Terry for assault by tea towel.

  • Episode 221 w/ Sabina Brennan Part 2
    Jun 12 2025

    In this week's episode , Sabina Brennan returns to discuss the fascinating connection between neuroscience and manifesting as well as her new book, "The Neuroscience of Manifesting: The Magical Science of Getting the Life You Want" which explores how our thoughts can shape our reality.

    They all join forces to take on the myths surrounding the law of attraction and reveal why it's about taking action, not just wishful thinking.

    Sabina also shares insights on self-compassion and discovering your true self, plus stories of her journey from acting to psychology.

    As ever with Sabina it's a very interesting and enlightening chat that might just change the way you think about achieving your dreams.

    ...just don't mention the 'law of attraction'!

  • Bonus: Trading Faces
    Jun 10 2025

    Sometimes it can be hard to describe what an episode of Talking More Bollox is like. This one of those weeks.

    We go from Leitrim’s first traffic late (surprisingly late), to Calvin’s fear of the ruthless elderly women down the local, and on to confusion and hostility over the definition of a second cousin.

    We take up the challenge of creating carnage in the Ilac, ponder Terry’s ongoing Argos mystery, try to explain why there was no “first” human being, teleport through time, and doubt the existence of dinosaurs (not all of us).

    And to wrap it all up, we work on a proposal for a potentially malicious and certainly hilarious body swap between Terence and Eoin.

    Please send questions to help us make more sense next week, to talkingbollox@goloudnow.com

  • Episode 220 w/ Helen Hall
    Jun 5 2025

    We've spoken so much on this podcast about our experiences with the Guards, but it's hard to know who to go to if you want to have your voice heard by someone who can make actual change.

    The Policing and Community Safety Authority sit down with the Commissioner and with senior gardaí on a regular basis to discuss how policing resources are being used and their CEO Helen Hall joined us this week.

    Helen spoke about why it's so important that the there is oversight watching what the Guards are doing, and what the difference is between a police force and a police service.

    If you want to take part in the survey Helen mentioned and have your voice heard, here's the link: https://pcsa.prioritysimulator.com/
