Ep 218 - Heat the Street
•
Kevin and PJ are unpacking the single life this week, all sparked by that viral Vogue piece asking, 'Is having a boyfriend embarrassing now?'. They debate whether being single is now a flex, question the awkwardness of posting your partner online, and reflect on how much our self-worth really depends on relationship status. Along the way, they share their own dating faux pas, the pressure (or relief) of staying solo and whether Kevin only craves a relationship on a Sunday evening so he can halve the cost of the Deliveroo.

Ep 226 - But Who Are We To Judge?
59:38|This week PJ reveals his new dream of becoming a DJ, while Kevin reflects on his time in dance college and the surprising amount of it spent battling vertigo after endless pirouettes. For the theme, the lads turn their attention to major world religions and ask the big question: if you were not born into your religion, would you actually choose it? With thousands of religions practiced around the world, and both of them raised in the Christian faith with plenty of Catholic guilt to show for it, Kevin and PJ explore different belief systems to see if any of them might tickle their fancy.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨

Kevin and PJ also run around meeting some of the volunteers and big personalities who keep everything ticking and even get involved in a Christmas singalong.To support the work being done by Cork Penny Dinners, Kevin and PJ donated €1,000 to the charity.

Ep 223 - On The Shoots We Serve Glamour
55:31|This week Kevin and PJ are chatting about letting hobbies stay as hobbies and not turning every interest into a side hustle. They also admit that just because something is homemade does not automatically mean it is good. While they may host a comedy podcast, the lads are keen to remind everyone that when it comes to shoots, they do in fact serve glamour.For the theme, they run through their Tops of the Year, covering everything from internet searches and music to Grindr tags and share what stood out to them most. They would also like to apologise to Kingfishr and their fans and would like to invite the boys to come on the podcast if they're not too busy.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨
Ep 222 - Kevinezer Scrooge
01:04:22|This week Kevin announces that he will not be putting up a Christmas tree in London, insisting he is done being the one who returns home first in January only to face the depressing task of taking down all the decorations alone. PJ immediately brands him a Scrooge, though Kevin maintains it is simply self-preservation. He also has a gripe to air about retail websites that promise ten percent off if you sign up to their newsletter, only to withhold the discount code for a full twenty-four hours, long after the impulse to buy has died.Because the lads feel there is far too much pressure to have a picture-perfect Christmas, they invite listeners to send in their own festive disasters. From uncooked turkeys to festive infidelity, they want to remind everyone that no one’s Christmas is flawless and we can all take comfort in the chaos together.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨
Ep 221 - Claddaghs, Cailíní and the Celtic Revival
42:10|PJ rants about the devastation he experiences living in an apartment block and coming home to a mountain of parcels and getting all excited only to discover none are for him. The lads also share their thoughts on Wicked: For Good, with Kevin unable to move past Elphaba wearing an Anthropologie knit cardigan during the only sex scene in the whole film.For the theme, Kevin and PJ dive into the current Celtic revival, chatting about the surge in love for CMAT, Fontaines D.C., claddagh motifs and the sudden obsession with “splitting the G.” While they adore seeing people embrace their Irishness, they cannot help but worry that the hype might be more trend than tradition.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨
Ep 220 - Pop That Spot, Pop That Puss
55:03|This week Kevin and PJ are feeling fragile as PJ’s back is in bits after a yoga class and the lads realise it is probably a blessing they do not have periods because they would absolutely never shut up about it. For the theme they dive into GLP 1s, prompted by the rise of Ozempic and Mounjaro. They chat about their own relationships with their bodies, the way fat people are treated in society and how Irish mothers are far more likely to compliment you on losing five pounds than saving a life.For support around body image, eating disorders, or related concerns, visit BodyWhysSign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨
Ep 219 - Zoe was Late for the Canon
01:04:14|This week PJ has a few bones to pick with Kevin, starting with the fact that Kevin apparently does not shower.

PJ also discovers that Kevin secretly sold the television they went halves on and forgot to tell him entirely.For the theme, the lads dive into Karen submission stories. One standout tale involves a girl who was meant to mind her friends cat for two weeks, but months later she still has it, her boyfriend is allergic and she has ended up with a vet bill of two thousand euro.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨
