This week on Feckology, The Big Mouse and The A-Train dive head-first into the big, unanswerable questions of existence: topics people whisper about late at night and pretend not to believe in the next morning. From ghosts that linger in the corner of your eye to the uneasy mysteries of death, we explore what might (or might not) be waiting beyond the veil. Is Heaven a place, a feeling, or a story we tell ourselves? Is Hell a load of old codswallop? Of course, it wouldn’t be Feckology without a spirited detour, so we wander off the path and into the world of Irish folklore - the long-standing mystery of Fairy Rings, and crossing paths with the ominous Púca Dubh.    Let us know what you think by leaving us a voice message:   https://www.speakpipe.com/Feckology   Follow us on X:   https://x.com/feckology

In Episode 2 of Season 3, The Big Mouse and The A-Train attempt to tie in a conversation about not connecting to Irish Culture with a dilemma The Big Mouse is facing about which type of school to send his child to. Does this ham-fisted attempt to make a cohesive discussion about two semi-related points work? The Listener can decide.   Get in touch on X @feckology

Season 3 of Feckology kicks off with The Big Mouse and The A-Train (new season, new moniker) alleging to talk about people management - but mostly taking swipes at Gen Z and overgeneralising wildly. Business as usual.
