14 Apr 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: What incident caused a mass evacuation in Sean MacDermott Street baths?

40.43 - 41.728 Terence

Where you so lazy?

0

42.336 - 45.938 Calvin

Me? You better speak up for me.

0

46.439 - 51.044 Terence

I came in, Calvin was here. Feet on the couch. I was. Very poor etiquette. Very poor etiquette.

0

51.224 - 54.448 Owen

This is my studio. I've set this studio up more times than anyone in the building.

0

54.488 - 64.198 Calvin

You're looking for trouble today. You came to the right spot. You came to the right spot, horse box. I'm here on business today. Oh no, don't do that. I was going to come in and say, listen, we should all be friends.

64.218 - 67.462 Owen

No, so was I. So was I, boys. I had a proposal.

67.842 - 72.968 Terence

How was it? I was trying to calm you down. What happened there? I was walking the kids over to the creche this morning.

72.948 - 77.44 Owen

Oh, here we go. I know you have kids. I have stuff to do. Oh, here we go. Shut the fuck up.

81.115 - 97.656 Terence

Pumped into an acquaintance of mine. Okay. He says, I was listening to the latest bonus episode ago. Yeah, I was listening to it as well. He says, they're having a right go at you, aren't they? Really? Over doing the work and being sick. And he says, and you weren't even there to defend yourself. I said, that's my point exactly. I'm going in to see them now.

Chapter 2: How did taxi drivers adapt during the tractor protests in Dublin?

217.597 - 231.86 Owen

I know. Do you ever see it? No, I don't think so. Someone sent it to me after the episode with the drums. And they were like, go here. You have old, do you know the old tellies with the big backs and all? You're just smashing them up with a hammer. It's great. We used to do that. Do you know when people were putting their old tellies in the flats?

0

231.88 - 234.163 Owen

Get them and just throw them off the balcony and all.

0

234.183 - 236.487 Calvin

No? Yeah. No, I hear you, bro.

0

237.665 - 240.971 Owen

Well, he's always quiet as if he has issues. But, like, Terence, you used to do it as well.

0

240.991 - 243.435 Calvin

Well, you have got issues, but that's not why we went quiet.

246.36 - 260.617 Owen

But anyways, how are you? What do you think of us putting to bed the accusations of him picking up a dead pigeon? The pigeon? Yeah. He did pick up a dead pigeon. They don't even put it into bed there. That's a bad one. No, he did. No, I was saying, like, there's no speculation. It's 100% confirmed. It's put to bed now.

261.157 - 282.642 Terence

The speculation, I suppose, will be, you know, with Ted Bundy. They often say... Hold on, hold on. Bear with me, bear with me. Don't start with Ted Bundy, bro. But, like, people always say, Ted Bundy killed eight women that we know of. Terry picked up one pigeon that we know of. Now people are like... I saw someone picking up a pigeon or a seagull. You haven't put a limit on it.

282.662 - 298.081 Terence

You haven't said it was one or two. So now it's going to roll. You know? I think it's the right thing to do. Oh, we have to give a shout out to a long time listener of the podcast. Who's this now? It might be the first time we've had a true fan of the podcast be nominated for EFL League One Player of the Year.

298.101 - 299.803 Calvin

Jack Moylan. Yeah.

Chapter 3: What updates are there on the car that was bought but never driven?

380.415 - 382.338 Calvin

No, we don't. No, but, like, you could.

0
0

384.14 - 388.126 Calvin

It's not how it works. You could be Brenna. I could.

0

388.146 - 404.713 Owen

If you're from town, you'll be Brenna. 100%. You and Emma. At what point does it change from Brenna to Brenna? No, it's not Brenna. I think it's when you come into Dublin One. Dublin One, which you referred to as Brenna. Yeah, out your neck of the woods. That's what I said. When you come to Dublin One, I think it drops to a different level. Because everything ends with an R, I feel.

0

404.693 - 414.777 Owen

Yeah Is it like region specific? I think it is actually Yeah can we actually put that out to the listeners? So Alan's second name is Brennan If Alan was from your area Would you call him Brenna or Brenno?

415.439 - 420.711 Calvin

Yeah I like that And just have a little talk Around some people in the area Do you get me?

421.484 - 438.202 Owen

I'll still never get over. No one has ever given me a definitive answer of what we call Christopher. Just makes no sense. Yeah. No one's ever given me that answer. But anyways, Owen. Yeah. How are you? We've got over the formalities now. Can we get on with the show? Oh, Terry, you have to.

438.322 - 446.291 Terence

Also in that bonus to you, what do we do? Calvin, stop saying what do we do.

446.311 - 448.253 Owen

It was a bit worrying when it happened two weeks in a row, Owen.

Chapter 4: What accusations arise among the hosts during the episode?

566.979 - 574.147 Calvin

Yeah. I need to fight with Jim. Probably offer. Yeah. It's a real fight. Yeah.

0

574.167 - 588.506 Owen

He rang me the other night and he goes, do you remember this, this and this? And I goes, oh yeah. He goes, I have to fight with Owen over this now. Yeah. We need to have a fight. He put it on his to-do list. Yeah. I have to fight what I want. I was like, text **** what I want.

0

588.526 - 595.937 Terence

Yeah. Give me the top line over there and we'll see if we can carry on. Three years ago. Here we go. Come on now.

0

595.957 - 619.986 Calvin

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Three years ago, we wanted an exorcist on the podcast, right? Yeah. And you said no, because Starla had a line up. And you were like, oh, look, you two years have them on in two weeks apart and all this shit. Like... And they didn't even end up having the person on. And we could have had them. Me and you had a fight that day, a big fight.

0

620.006 - 621.307 Calvin

You were calling me a prick and all.

621.367 - 625.831 Terence

Oh, was I? It's probably the other way around.

625.851 - 636.941 Calvin

But you guys never even had them. There's not many in Ireland. So my point is, can you get back in contact with that person? Yeah, sure. So there's no fight? Fuck off, you're in a very agreeable, you know. Give us a pay rise.

636.961 - 665.652 Owen

Here's the thing about the Exorcist town. The further away from October is, the better. I want that in the middle of May when it's sunny outside, when it's bright when we come in and bright when we leave. I'm not having this where it's fucking, oh, it's Halloween season. No, you can wee. Yeah. I'm not going home being like, there's definitely no one in my attic, so where did that noise come from?

672.112 - 692.356 Terence

Right, let's see. I don't have a name on this. I was chatting to my friends about what I'd do if I won the cash machine. I got unmercifully slagged for saying that rather than replace my perfectly good 2015 Volkswagen Polo, I'd just hire a personal driver for the year to spin me around. I stand by it. Which is better? An okay car which you never drive or a nice car that you have to drive around?

Chapter 5: What humorous stories are shared about being a tour guide in Dublin?

765.867 - 777.086 Calvin

Did I buy that a year ago? Oh, yeah, give or take, yeah. For a seat. Siobhan, have you ever had a finish? Broke up final tickets. Will you bleep the numbers, please? Broke up final tickets.

0

780.351 - 782.334 Unknown

Yeah.

0

782.755 - 785.699 Calvin

Yeah, down to the number. Just reference what it would be.

0

785.92 - 790.427 Owen

Yeah. He could have flown first class multiple times on that race.

0

791.789 - 797.357 Terence

McGinty. McGinty. This could be interesting. What was your favourite moment so far today?

797.698 - 797.918

Haha.

798.353 - 821.203 Owen

No. No, no, no. Calvin, can you set the studio up? That's exactly what I meant. He knows him not well. Yeah, actually, because I come up, Owen Brennan mentioned you on WhatsApp and I was like, what's this? And he was like, will you set the studio up?

821.223 - 831.195 Terence

Because you're always talking about setting the studio up. Because you always have to set the studio up. See, it's become a big thing for you. I think you're compensating because you're doing fuck all setting up at home. Everyone else is doing all the work, all the lifting. Compensating.

831.215 - 852.971 Owen

And you're in here going, I'm leaving here now, I'm going to have a word with Chris Doyle, Ruth and Eamon about your behaviour. Yeah, but after you have a conversation about your fucking extension. It's all my fault, people always ask. I'm not going to lie on. See when you put that message in. I pulled the handbrake up and done a U-turn and got a coffee. I was like, I'm not going over there.

Chapter 6: How do the hosts discuss their favorite places in Dublin?

955.882 - 958.206 Terence

Boy or a girl? What? Girl I believe.

0

958.286 - 970.648 Calvin

J-E-A-N. Yeah, that could be a boy. From? Where? Montpellier. James Silver from the UFC. He's Brazilian. How do you know he's not Brazilian? Brazilians pull me in the gym all the time. Said he liked the podcast. Remember the Brazilians?

0

970.668 - 972.511 Owen

Terence was going to be like, obrigado.

0

972.932 - 983.391 Calvin

Yeah. Remember the Brazilians said he learned to have to speak English over the podcast? Did he? Yeah. Poor fella. Yeah, I said, we can't even speak here, Matty. Yeah.

0

983.742 - 1002.696 Terence

Gene says, I was walking through town the other morning. I saw a tour guide waiting to get on his bus on College Green. It was a high-end bus, definitely one for rich American tourists. I've no idea why, but for some reason it made me laugh thinking of if Terry was a tour guide giving a guided tour of town to rich Americans.

1002.676 - 1020.364 Owen

Where would he go And what would he say Sorry Could I just interrupt you I seen a tour Happening on O'Connor Street Just there Yeah And it was a small group It was only like four people And the man was giving them To where he goes I think that's called a spoil I think that's called a spoil On my man's life He said I think that's called a spoil And I was like Mate What the fuck is going on here

1020.344 - 1023.609 Calvin

Calvin would be better at a tour guide through town than me.

1023.629 - 1024.711 Terence

I think that's why Jean wants.

1025.172 - 1026.735 Calvin

Okay. Okay.

Chapter 7: What are the challenges faced with the swimming pool renovations?

1107.514 - 1118.189 Calvin

And I was like, your toilet's just ticks. If you's got the toilet fixed, my toe would be intact. You know them bats, Owen. The whole pool got evacuated. How many are they?

0

1118.73 - 1131.709 Terence

That story had, like, so many interesting details, but clearly so many missing parts to it. Yeah, missing toil. I cut my toe, got the whole place evacuated, and all the D1 tried to pat her.

0

1131.729 - 1144.612 Calvin

Yeah, they were all like, are you for fucking real and all? I was like, what do you want me to do with your toils? Like, who's that from here? Do you get me? We're responsible for the maintenance of the pill. Yeah, put a word in. Say, mister, there's a fucking broken toilet down there.

0

1144.632 - 1150.038 Terence

So this will be part of your tour. You'll be retelling this story to the Americans then. Yeah. I'll tell them that. You have to tell them that story.

0

1150.198 - 1155.364 Owen

Yeah. Have you seen The Bats lately? You know The Bats. Everyone knows The Bats and Sean McDermott Street. I know what you're referring to.

1155.384 - 1156.505 Calvin

I've heard a little laden revamp.

1156.525 - 1161.01 Owen

Yeah, a couple of times. You've got so many revamps, they close it to the public. It was private sessions only.

1161.611 - 1165.515 Calvin

I'm telling you. That was a good spot, but it was a dangerous old spot.

1165.916 - 1176.264 Owen

What was always wrong was every time it was getting a revamp, that you were going to put slides in it. How are you going to put slides in there? It takes about four foot deep. We're going to push the loads. Like the aquatic centre.

Chapter 8: What funny anecdotes are shared about the Jervis shopping center?

1272.287 - 1291.519 Calvin

I'll never forget when you said that's gone a year. And I was like, I was in there two weeks ago. Because I know I was in there. So I tell them about Argus. Right, and you've one more. I've one more spot to go to. Yeah. The Jervis. And what would you say about the Jervis? Would you not just cross over? You can't finish on a second chopper set.

0

1291.539 - 1300.232 Terence

Are you not? It's built on a hospital. Yeah. I didn't know that part. Now I was going to tell them about JD. No, it's the only saving grace, I suppose, the Jervis. Allegedly. The potential hauntings.

0

1300.252 - 1307.543 Owen

Yes, allegedly people that walk in the stock rooms in there have had some dodgy stories. In the Jervis? Yeah. We've talked about this before, no? Yeah, I think we have, yeah.

0

1308.62 - 1312.704 Calvin

Right, so we'll skip the Jervis then. There were a tonne down. There were a tonne there.

0

1312.724 - 1312.884 Terence

Yeah.

1313.164 - 1321.272 Calvin

See, my cowhouse used to work there. Yeah. My uncle was born here. My uncle was born here. I think all of our kids were born there, weren't they? What was number four again? The Oillac. The Oillac, brother.

1321.612 - 1323.214 Owen

Sorry. It's like the pyramids.

1323.254 - 1334.004 Terence

No one knows how they got here. He's walking with Sean McDermott Street. He crosses to the Oillac, crosses Parnell Square. The Americans are looking at all the statues down O'Connell Street.

1335.025 - 1338.548 Owen

Don't mind all that stuff. The GPO. Argos, bro.
