Bonus: Posh Words & Ballers

This week on Talking Bollox, Terence and Calvin are joined by psychologist and relational life therapy practitioner Louise Carroll for a proper deep dive into relationships - from red flags, gaslighting and “kitchen sinking”, to why most couples end up stuck in the same loops.Louise chats about growing up in Navan, working in Jigsaw for years, leaving it all to chase music with the Blizzards, and even managing a ranch in Costa Rica to get her head right.They break down the classic pursuer/distancer dynamic, why “never go to bed on an argument” can be a myth, and how phones and social media quietly wreck connection.Louise also explains her 12-week programme, Wisely Attached, and the “wounded, wild and wise” parts we all carry.This episode was sponsored by Rightstyle Furniture.

We have praise for the Ireland international footballers who are listeners of the podcast - but Terence quickly turns that praise into confrontation. We try to pick a Talking Bollox five-a-side team and have to accept our chances of getting a game aren’t great.We got a big response from listeners to last week’s attempt to get Terence back on the stage for a live show, and this week we offer every bribe we can think of, from goal celebrations on his behalf at the Aviva Stadium, to the release of top-secret information he’s long demanded to know.Terence shows his disgust for a very normal word that he finds disgustingly posh and he shows a surprisingly relaxed attitude to walking around in public with toothpaste on his face.Your questions also have us weighing up if it’s better to be too scared or too embarrassed, and the prospect of getting inside the mind of someone from your phonebook. That brings Calvin to the thought of being caught inside the mind of one particular former guest – a fate he’d consider worse than time in prison.Send all of your questions and comments to [email protected]

Irish rapper Casey Walsh joined the lads this week, four years on from his last appearance and in a very different place in life.The last time Casey was here he was part of Versatile, but this time he returns as a solo artist with new music, a tour on the way, and a whole new outlook on life. He talked about the madness that came with the band’s rise, from selling out the 3Arena to touring with Snoop Dogg, and how being that young with that much attention, money and momentum sent him down a path he eventually had to step away from.Casey opened up about getting sober, finding faith, meeting his wife Kim, and how his life has changed since making those decisions. There is also a new chapter opening up for him, with his first major lead acting role in the new RTÉ and BBC series Tall Tales and Murder. He told us about getting the call, breaking down when he landed the part, and why acting was always the dream before music ever took over.We also got into creative hate comments, going viral overseas and how Coolio became more than just a childhood hero, but a close friend.This episode was sponsored by Rightstyle Furniture.
