    From Texas to Tarmacking. From sourdough to Sligo. It’s Istanbullocks. You’ve been warnedRay’s lost in a fairy ring somewhere west of Galway, Morgan Freeman’s reads a tennis poem ''Balls'' and segues into Sue Barker fantasies, while Liam Neeson is pitching Breaking Bread — a Ballymena crime drama about a sick chemistry teacher who illegally peddles gluten-free soda farls - any similarities with Breaking Bad are purely coincidental. Aye right!Jorma holds the fort in Crete with tales of Greek bureaucracy, how his singing could lead to a Welsh Bafta, and an Irish DJ argues with a Jack Russell about WB Yeats. Plus music from Gorilla Radio and a restraining order from a woman in Ballina, who's been the victim of lingerie theft.#ComedyPodcast #IrishComedy #Britishcomedy #Comedypodcast #SurrealHumour #LiamNeeson #MorganFreeman #SueBarker #Wimbledon2025 #BreakingBadSpoof #LibertyHillTexas #PodcastRecommendations #IndiePodcast

  • 93. Paul Bastard: Welsh Baftas, Obituaries & Prize Cocks

    50:08||Ep. 93
    In the latest episode of Talking Istanbullocks, things spiral from the valleys of Wales to the poultry pens of Lickey End. Jorma belts out “The Rambler”, a Kenny Rogers-style ballad advising Welsh village pub-goers about Brexit, inbreeding and sheep-related shame.True or False starts with Norm from Cheers and somehow ends with Irish wakes and obituaries, Welsh Baftas, and Paul Bastard — Torquay United’s fan liaison officer turned internet legend. In Lickey End, Norma’s standing for Reform UK but forgets politics the moment she sees her black, poultry-farming Tory rival. Love (or something like it) blossoms over his prize cock.Ray praises actress Joan O’Ruairc for her role as long-suffering Betty and launches an unofficial campaign for her Welsh Bastard BAFTA — and no, that’s not a typo.Packed with satire, innuendo, and the sort of nonsense that’d turn your uncle off and make your auntie want it all the harder#TalkingIstanbullocks #PaulBastardTorquay #ComedyPodcast #SketchComedy #WelshBaftas #KennyRogersParody #LickeyEnd #ReformUK #BritishComedy #IrishComedy #PoliticalSatire #PrizeCock #FanLiaisonLegend #ObituariesAndBaftas #CultComedy

  • 91. Taken: Liam Neeson's Unauthorised Anthology

    01:01:51||Ep. 91
    He's back. He’s brooding. He’s possibly plagiarising. And he's forgotten his sandwiches.This Liam Neeson Special features five of our most beloved (and ridiculous) parody interviews from the past three years — plus two raunchy sketches involving a sultry American MILF named Vagella Rick-Rocks, who may or may not be trying to seduce Liam in increasingly absurd scenarios.Along the way, Liam overshares about romance, attempts to rebrand himself as a serious creative artist, and pitches original ideas such as:A romantic comedy glove-based ensemble film (Glove Actually)A mob drama about therapy (The Carusos)A masked vigilante with Wilfred the butler and Boy Wonder, Robbie. (That Man)While giving us first-hand insight into his bizarre world of:Showing old ladies his 'Hamlet'African prostitutesLaughing at elephantsPeeing in men's handsHis short-lived career as SantaDoggingEach sketch is followed by commentary from Jorma and Ray, who try (and mostly fail) to make sense of Liam’s creative process, real-life zoo visits and late night video games with celebrity friends like Carol Vorderman, Bill Nighy and Gerry Adams - and suspiciously familiar plotlines.It’s part tribute, part chaos, part forgotten sandwiches – with extra lashings of filth.
