  • Episode 239 w/ Willa White and Darren Conway
    Oct 23 2025

    This week Calvin is joined/invaded by the dastardly due of Willa White and Darren Conway and needless to say madness ensues.

    Willa gives us an insight into his run ins with Roches Stores back in the day during his previous incarnation as, how shall we say, purveyor of items .

    They all take a trip down memory lane to Mosney and the 'mooning' pool in the pub and we hear about some of the school tours they took including a trip on a 747 plane!

    Calvin recounts his bunking into Oasis exploits and everyone is in agreement that the Scots are ALWAYS up for a bit of skullduggery.

  • Episode 238 w/ Shane Todd - Part 2
    Oct 16 2025

    No one can replace Terence while he's on hiatus, but the podcast must go on. So, we asked friend of the pod Shane Todd to spin down for a bonus episode, although we probably only got to ask about one question.

    Shane takes us on tangents about celebrity football matches, the definition of the word 'ambiguous' and the differences between deli's North and South of the Border.

    Tickets for Shane's tour are available now on his website here: www.shanetoddcomedy.com/

  • A Message from Terence
    Oct 11 2025

    You’ve probably noticed our absence for the last week. Thank you all for your patience while we got back to you.

    Terence has a message for you that can explain where we’ve been and let you know about a break he’s taking because of some upcoming surgery, which is going to mean he’ll have to skip the studio for a bit.

    It’s best to let Terry explain it in his own words, so please take a listen. We’ll be back next week – still Talking Bollox, but missing our mate. We will be keeping the show on the road and we’ll share those plans with you on our next episode, which will be with you very soon.

    Thank you for all of your support – for every message, listen, live show and everything else over the last few years. You’re all legends.

  • Episode 237 w/ Miriam Hussey
    Oct 2 2025

    Miriam Hussey worked as a qualified pharmacist for 10 years, but she always had a passion for holistic health and wellness. She spoke to us about the importance of your mind and your soul in healing your body and how our lifestyle impacts our health.

    She explained why it's good to cry sometimes and what you can do in your day to help you on the right path.

    Miriam is a leading health and wellness figure in Ireland and a founder of Soul Space with her husband Gerry, but she's had to step back and turn down huge opportunities in order to focus on her own priorities and her family. She spoke to us about that decision and how even now she's still not sure what's next for her.

    She's incredibly inspiring and we think you'll take a lot from this interview.

    Miriam's book Light Up is available now.

  • Bonus: You're Gonna Need A Bigger Boat
    Sep 30 2025

    The lads switch things up and convince Eoin to unleash messages from the TBX phone with predictably wild results.

    We hear from a listener who has a whale phobia and we discover sharks are coming for Ireland. Great!

    Thinking of getting those 'Turkey teeth', well Terry has some reassuring advice.

    One messager mispronounces himself into a mortifying situation in Poland and they absolutely catch one of the builders in Marconi House out rapid in the middle of the recording.

  • Episode 236 w/ New Machine
    Sep 25 2025

    From Jorja Smith and Aitch, to Plan B and Maverick Sabre, New Machine (a.k.a. Adam Jordan) has worked with some of the biggest names in music. He told us how he got introduced to music, his first time in the studio and how he didn't and still doesn't know what's next in his career.

    Adam grew up between London and Wexford and he explained how that affected his music tastes and made him aware of the importance of listening to different voices and influences.

    He also gave us his advice for aspiring Irish musicians and explained the big shift in the UK scene that made it blow up.

  • Bonus: The Perfection Paradox
    Sep 23 2025

    There’s a rebellion against perfectionism in the studio this week, as Terry calls for everyone to just drop the standards a little bit.

    Terry goes all in to make the case for eating food on the train or bus, while talking on your phone on loud speaker. He also reveals he’s a big sandwich type of man.

    Is there anything worse than a bragger? Is it torture to be stuck with a real Elevenerife type, or is being trapped with a constant complainer an even worse fate?

    Calvin makes some big, sweeping statements about the relationship between sporting greatness and abusive fathers – and Terry is having to decide between kisses and condiments.

    We get around to wondering when everything in life got so black and white for so many people, and realise that talking to people just isn’t what it used to be.

    And to top it all off, we get a brilliant and very touching story from a listener, about a few friends and a lifesaving transplant.

  • Episode 235 - Reconfigured
    Sep 18 2025

    This week, we wanted to show you everything you're missing if you're not listening to the bonus episode or TBX.

    There's the madness of listener questions on everything from body swaps to eating food off the floor. Terence realises there's no roundabouts in town and Calvin wonders if his old school is trying to lure him back in.

    We introduce you to some of our regular contributors to TBX - both culchies and Dub's. There's insight into the life of bus drivers and there's even people getting called out for straightners.
