Guys, this is just a quick one apologising to you the listeners for another audio mishap today. It has all been rectified now, I am so sorry to have once again messed up on the audio front, which ps is kind of the whole point of a podcast.

If it's any consolation, I look forward to another long night self-flagellating and listing off all the ways I have sabotaged any semblance of success I might have enjoyed over the last few years....punctuated only by calpol and mutliple trips to the loo thanks to my pelvic floor being about as good as my editing skills (very weak).

If you did try to listen to the earlier episode, I am so sorry for wasting your time. It's been rectified now but Joanne and Vogue I am not, and I know I can't expect people to keep tuning in and hoping for the best.

Thanks for being here, I love doing it, if that counts for anything, and you having been here at all means the world. Love yas! A very tired J x

'When I told him I was getting a lotus flower because it blooms in muddy waters, I could feel the audible eye-roll.'

I discuss the controversy surrounding Jacob Elordi being cast as our numero uno forbidden fruit Heathcliff in Emerald Fennell's adaption of 'Wuthering Heights', Pamela Anderson dishing the dirt on her dalliance with Liam Neeson and Katie Price's new husband.

I also touch upon the latest solution to the housing crisis as per Ray Cooke who let's face it has no skin in the game and how i will be approaching parent teacher meetings going forward.

'It's hard to come back from saying your mother was trying to shift you.'

I'm chatting Brooklyn Beckham's explosive statements on Instagram telling the world that his mother was gyrating against him at his wedding like a drunk auntie and dissect what he meant by 'inappropriate dancing.' Was she doing the Siege of Ennis? If so, I'm Team Brooklyn all the way. I also talk about how attractive it is when men stand by their women and why you should never marry a family member.

But the big news of the hour is Dingle winning the All Ireland. I talk about my love of this small fishing town and how pride I am of the Dingle men who, despite a tiny population in the scheme of things, have proved themselves to be the best in the land. We never doubted ye.

If ye have enjoyed the pod I would just love if you could rate or review us wherever you get your episodes, as it really helps with keeping the podcast alive. Thanks so much for being here, J x

'You will always find me under an electric blanket at parties.'

I'm talking about being back in counselling, which I'm sure will be welcomed news for anyone who has ever listened to this podcast.

I dissect Jessie Buckley's Golden Globe win and what it means for me, reveal my latest comedy disaster and why my dabbling in hypnotism all those months ago didn't work.

I chat about an Ghaeltacht's stunning All Ireland win and mention musical icon Cormac Begley going viral for his version of the Irish Haka (an Ghaeltacht abú baby!) . In an exciting twist I then recall him once ending up as a hostage at one of my earlier terrible gigs (as opposed to my more recent terrible gigs) when a late night coffee shop metamorphosised into a guerrilla-style open-mic attack. I also review at least 25 minutes of Pluribus, the new Apple TV show and debate when old people are a little too independent.

If you have enjoyed this pod, I would be ever so thrilled if you could rate or review the show wherever you get your podcasts.

Thanks so much for listening guys! Love yas, J x

'Timothéé Chalamet is never going to be playing a technology teacher.'

I'm chatting about Timothée Chalamet doing the unthinkable and thanking his girlfriend for her support, discuss America's takeover of Venezuela and marvel at an RTE vox pop on the streets of Copenhagen where Danish people use words like 'archetype' with alarming confidence. I also touch upon the ownership of Greenland (spoiler alert, I don't think it's Denmark).

I am still banging on about the West Kerry housing market and talk about Dingle's recent warrior performance which has seen them reach the All Ireland Final - an unbelievable feat for a small town and something which gets me so excited I almost want to buy a notebook.

If you have listened to the episode I would be so so grateful if you could rate or review wherever you listen to podcasts, as it helps massively with spreading the word.

Thanks a million for listening, J x

'Everyday that goes by I understand more and more why Britney shaved her head.'

I'm discussing Nick Cannon's many, many family photoshoots for Christmas whilst also secretly envious of their part-time relationship status (honestly, if a sister-wife situation allows me a few nights a week to watch Real Housewives and Below Deck in peace, sign me up!)

I also discuss my perennial Blow-In status in Dingle and how I am convinced I am currently the target of a runaway knock campaign. I also confess to having a para-social affair with Chat GBT who is currently indulging my delusions by making a printable PDF ducment out of my ten point plan of how to move to China.

For anyone who's listened to Venting during 2025, thank you so much, and thank you for still being here. I truly cannot tell you how much it means to me, and I'm so sorry for the lack of consistency this year. 2026 is the year I get my shit together and have this pod out every week on the same day at the crack of dawn always.

Happy new year to each and everyone of you, love yas! J x

'The Christmas Tree experience has bonded myself and my students in a way only people who went through trench warfare together will understand.'

I discuss attending Kneecap in the INEC, being the most hated teacher in town and how I am absolutely not in any way miffed at not getting a rake of gifts from the students in my charge. I also discuss my birthday, our closing tally on the Christmas Tree pyramid scheme and touch upon big anniversaries.

I make a shocking confession about stolen school uniforms which could land me in jail (I'm very brave) and talk about my big raffle winnings this week.

Finally I risk everything by making an absolutely insane comparision between Josef Fritzl and the commonwealth games that will surely have listeners switching off FOREVER.

Thank you so much for listening, it means so much. Love yas! J x

"Has your parking ever been so bad that multiple members of your family are contacted?"

This week I'm chatting getting embroiled in Christmas tree pyramid schemes and why extra curricular activities are always a terrible idea, as any doctor will tell you.

I also talk about the new most embarrassing moment of my life which involves guards, multiple family members, and managing to make an absolute holy show of myself on what is probably both a local and national level. I also talk Other Voices and my exciting rendezvous with Michael D Higgins (did this happen or did it not, listen to the pod to find out!)

Thanks so much for listening to me guys. Love, J x
