Stall It with Darren and Joe

Joe and Darren are on high alert! A certain rival podcast duo are wandering around outside ON THEIR PATCH and the boys are keeping a VERY watchful eye throughout this week's episode.

Speaking of keeping an eye out, Darren is parading a new pair of specs and he's delighted with himself. Although he is less delighted by the backhanded compliment Joe tries to pay him as a result.

Darren isn’t happy as he finds out he was left out of an invite only event that both Joe and Eoin attended. And it gets worse, as he finds out about some sneaking off between more friends of his.

We want you to get on a podcast we think you'll really be into. It's called Lines of Enquiry, a brand new GoLoud Original, and it’s proper Irish true crime. None of the mad Facebook theories, Janine from Tallaght trying to solve a 43 year old cold case in Alabama. This fella actu...

Is Joe as grumpy as he seems? Or has his daily meditation/astral projection practice calmed his mind?

You could nearly believe that he's a changed man until his tirade about ketchup being childish and immature.

We get a request to become the architects of a conspiracy theory, and end up going...

We hope you're sitting down for this week's bonus because something very weird occurs. People are in agreement with one of Joe's rants!
