About this listen
In this episode, Shaun and Imran return with a conversation that ranges from the oddly personal to the surprisingly profound. What begins as a light discussion about chat show hosting quickly unravels into a whirlwind of childhood quirks, musical grievances, and a thoughtful reflection on national identity.
We start by assessing Shaun’s potential as a talk show host—think less Graham Norton, more controlled chaos—before delving into the strange phases we went through growing up. Imran had a piercing stage, Shaun was deep in his Oasis era (a fact he now deeply regrets), and somehow we both made it out the other side.
From there, we tackle the music genres that just don’t work for us. Imran takes aim at Westerns and country, while Shaun makes a solid case against rap. No one is safe, including our younger selves.
The core of the episode, though, revolves around Shaun’s big question: “Reasons Why I Wouldn’t Leave Ireland.” What starts off sounding simple turns into a nuanced discussion about home, nostalgia, and why certain places stick with us—even when we think we want out.
It’s thoughtful, a bit ridiculous, and hopefully the kind of chat that makes you laugh and think. Tune in.
