Soooo... We're actually back on the pod, for real this time! Liam and Kevin have finally come back together to give out episode no. 30 and to be honest, who'd have thought we would've stuck with it this long [not us].

These topics can and will range on anything from 'would you rather' to 'high thoughts' and end up on anything down the lines of useless 5 minute hacks and 'how to waste your time effectivly'. So as always, listen and laugh along to what is now a Comic Jocks threesome of fun and laughs.

#26 ADH Evie

Sat, 05 Oct 2024 04:15:16 GMT

We've done it, we've finally found another guest to pop on. Everyone, meet Evie. Today's guest is a work mate of Liam's, but is an absolute character in her own right. Eva would have no problem in calling out the two lads on their shit and keeping them in line. We said last week that we were going to keep it a little more PG, but that went straight out the window as Kev says the 'W' word within the first 8 minutes. With the help of Evie, the two guys create a new section, ''Under The Bus'' where we have no issue in calling out any RATS that have been at us during the week gone. As always lads, listen and laugh along to the CARNAGE of this episode as the three podcasters chat us through their weird and wonderful minds. We also decide that everyone should have Go/Run Away Bag incase they shit themselves...

#25 Hot & Bothered

Sat, 28 Sep 2024 17:10:39 GMT

No explaining needed on this one, apart the fact that our favourite listener gifted us a New speaker to record on. We drove through a pretty comprehensive episode here and lets be honest, our minds were only on one thing throughout this episode... our manhoods hahahah. We chat through our week last week and how we got through it witrh our food and our lives (for once we didn't actully chat through much training)> As the episdoe moves on, touch on our mental health a bit. We don't go into major detail, however we do give one of Liam's little saying that get him through a depressing time of year in Ireland. We also find oiut a big reason as to why Kevin could be tapped in the head a little bit. As always, listen and laugh along to our madness, and as per usual... Enjoy!

Tue, 17 Sep 2024 04:00:00 GMT

Soooo, just to start off, we forgot to introuse the episode because we were so excited about setting up the new microphones that we forgot to introduce the episode and we got very flustered and went proper off track at times... For some reason, when we go off track things seem to get sexual in nature, so be prepared. As always, listen and laugh along to our weird and wonderful minds as we track back on our weeks training, diet and everyday lives throughout this episode. Both the guys bring us through how they trained and they talk food and diet also and try to keep eachother on track as they do. As the episode progresses the two guys get more comfortable and try to test the limits of the podcast.
