What starts as a simple catch-up quickly turns into the usual chaos, from nights out and running into old friends to stories that could’ve gone very differently if things escalated. There’s a bit of everything: awkward encounters, questionable decisions, and the kind of situations where you’re thinking this could turn at any second.


In between all that, the conversation drifts (as always) into random debates, side stories, and the everyday madness of life. From money stress and talk of loans to the small things that somehow turn into full-blown arguments.


It’s messy, it’s funny, and it goes completely off track more than once… but that’s exactly what makes it a Confession Box episode.

Just Julie and Nana P this week, and it doesn’t take long before things go completely off the rails.


What starts as a simple catch-up around Mother’s Day, gifts, and day-to-day life quickly turns into one of Julie’s most mortifying moments yet… when her landlord and a painter arrive at the house and the kids decide it’s the perfect time to start saying everything they shouldn’t. Safe to say, she nearly didn’t recover.


From there, the conversation drifts into the reality of juggling home life, money stress, and trying to figure out what’s next, all while raising kids who have absolutely no filter. There’s plenty of throwbacks, a few questionable parenting takes, and the kind of honest chats that somehow swing between heartfelt and chaotic in seconds.


It’s funny, a bit mad, and painfully relatable, another classic Confession Box episode.

This episode contains discussion of suicide, death, drug use, and grief involving young people. Some listeners may find parts of this conversation distressing. Listener discretion is advised.


Yvonne opens up about the first tragedy that struck when she was just three years old, after her 13-year-old brother Roy passed away. She reflects on the few memories she holds from that morning and the incredible strength her mother showed in protecting the rest of the children during an unthinkable moment.


Years later, the family was devastated again when her brother Killian died at just 16 after collapsing in Dublin following a cardiac arrest. Yvonne shares what it was like hearing the news, the shock that spread through their small town, and the complicated grief that followed.


But heartbreak struck the family once more. The episode also begins the story of Yvonne’s younger sister Molly, whose tragic death would become another life-changing moment for the family.


Through it all, one thing remains constant: the strength of a mother raising a large family through loss, grief, and unimaginable hardship.


This episode is raw, emotional, and deeply honest, a story about family, resilience, and the lasting impact of love even in the darkest moments.

After five years of being told no, single mum, self-employed, rejection after rejection, she walks into her own house for the first time… and immediately realises she owns absolutely nothing to put in it.


The excitement quickly turns into “where do I even start?” as the reality of an empty shell hits. No furniture. No sofa. Just a kettle, a toaster, and an air fryer on the way.


They break down the bidding war, the panic over new builds, the small €2k jumps that decide your future, and why saving consistently in the credit union actually mattered more than anything else.


And just when things get sentimental…


Julie gets charged bus fare at a toll booth and becomes convinced she was weighed.

Proud moments, financial chaos, a little vindication, and one very confused toll operator.

Julie finally gets the text she’s been waiting for, but before she can celebrate properly, trolls manage to dig up her new house listing and post it online.


Meanwhile, outside the studio, a man casually cuts an electric bike free with an angle grinder in broad daylight... no panic, no rush, just vibes. Scrambler bikes are flying up one-way streets like it’s a video game, and McDonald’s is making announcements about “we do not accept abuse” mid-ice cream order.


As if that wasn’t enough, the conversation somehow ends up in America, where 56 fraternity pledges stand covered in ketchup and vodka refusing to move for police.


Add in gym delusions, Dwayne “The Rock” comparisons, and a baby shower booking thrown into the madness, and you’ve got another week where the only real question is…

Julie wakes from a dream about her dad to a doorbell ringing at 5AM… but convinces herself she imagined it. The next morning there are bits scattered on the driveway, missed calls from an unknown number, and by that evening there’s a Garda at the door holding the twins’ school bags.

Yes. The school bags.


From a car break-in no one realised was happening, to passports going missing, to the slow realisation that the guards were the ones ringing at dawn — it’s a weekend Julie won’t forget in a hurry.


And because this is The Confession Box, the episode somehow also takes a hard turn into childhood fears of the Bermuda Triangle, irrational worries about quicksand, and a full in-studio science experiment that proves your own hand can’t decide if it’s hot or cold.


Guards, panic, nostalgia, and accidental education.

Between pregnancy sciatica, deep heat fumes filling the studio, and Sean somehow managing to sit comfortably through it all, things kick off in a typical chaotic fashion. Julie opens up about a recent situation that spiralled online, the ripple effect of podcast comments, and how quickly trolls can latch on — especially when you’re seven months pregnant and already in pain.


Just when things get heavy, the episode takes a sharp left turn into pure Confession Box madness: Sean reveals a brand new tattoo that raises more questions than answers (yes, it involves a dinosaur… or a drunk chicken), Nana P has thoughts, and suddenly we’re deep into Disney films, parenting without iPads, physio visits, swimming pools, and whether kids should ever hit back when they’re being bullied.


It’s one of those episodes that swings between real talk and ridiculousness - raw, funny, frustrating, and very us.

Julie reveals how a year of obsessive bottle collecting turned into nearly €300 in vouchers, which somehow funded two full Christmas dinners… but still left everyone wondering where all the food went. That spirals into post-Christmas shopping chaos, Nana P navigating Dunnes on a broken leg, and Sean sending a “simple” shopping list that nearly causes a full aisle meltdown (granola, yoghurt and rice are all up for debate).

Julie, Nana P and Sean kick off with pure slagging (Sean’s outfit gets absolutely dragged), before the chat turns into a Cork city struggle: disastrous parking, a wall bump, a wing mirror hanging off, and Sean walking straight into a pole… while recording.


There’s ice skating at Marina Market, Christmas present negotiations, family throwbacks (Dettol baths, saxo salt, and ringing your mam in work), and then Julie drops a proper update — they spotted the “sale agreed” sign on the house and she’s flying through the legal side with a specialist property solicitor.


A festive catch-up packed with chaos, nostalgia, and a little property progress — Happy Christmas, and be careful out there. 🎄

She kicks things off having a full meltdown over recording an ad, spending nearly an hour trying to pronounce fancy wine names (Château what now?) and turning one poor bottle into champagne, red wine and everything in between. That spirals into a chat about zero-zero pints, whether you’d still be done for drink-driving if the barman gave you the wrong thing, and an experiment that proves mind-over-matter might actually be a bit too real.

Then Julie drops the bombshell: she hasn’t just viewed a house… she’s put an offer on two of them. She’s in a bidding war, she’s 100k short on paper. Come find out how she plans to make this one work.

But even though she didn’t win overall, being on the programme has opened up a worldwide audience to the Glanmire native. 


In this conversation Stephanie shared with Brenda and Julie what it was like growing up in Cork, the real life tragedy that inspired her viral song Please Don’t Go and accidentally lying to Sofia Vergara about her age.

But even though she didn’t win overall, being on the programme has opened up a worldwide audience to the Glanmire native. 


In this conversation Stephanie shared with Brenda and Julie what it was like growing up in Cork, the real life tragedy that inspired her viral song Please Don’t Go and accidentally lying to Sofia Vergara about her age.

In the Opera House, he went by his stripper name Frankie but strip away his stage name and there’s a very real person underneath. 


In this interview Liam shares what it was like growing up on a council estate in Ballybeg in County Waterford and getting into trouble from a young age. Between the ages of 17 and 28 Liam was in and out of prison and detention amassing 89 convictions in total. He was caught in a seemingly endless cycle of addiction and bad choices until one day, Liam decided to change his life. Far from living a quiet life though, Liam has continued to live out loud and has stories that would make your hair curl - from swinging, to wild encounters on the job, this man has lived! We hope you enjoy.


P.S Headphones in for this one - it’s strictly over 18s only!
