Stall It with Darren and Joe

Darren Conway and Joe McGucken present Stall It. Whether it’s a deep dive into mystery, a dose of nostalgia or a wander through the strange worlds of Darren and Joe, Stall It is silly about the serious stuff and serious about the silly.  It's the podcast that can go anywhere, with a conversation about an air fryer leaving you discussing your chances of survival in a zombie apocalypse, a childhood memory leading you to re-designing Dublin as a theme park, or a bit of historical trivia leading you down a mysterious rabbit hole. As Joe puts it, it’s “like falling asleep on the bus and waking up in Kimmage, you don't know how you got there."

    Ep 210: The Great Bat Hoax

    Joe is infuriated by people taking offense on behalf of sharks, and he (really) flies a plane. Darren remembers the scourge of pocket money jealousy and his many fleeting careers, from work experience in Dunnes to holding signs for furniture shops. Joe exploits a bat encounter for online kudos and somehow that leads us to learn of an ant apocalypse, while Darren stands up for trees and tree stumps. We also learn a genuinely life altering fact about the animal kingdom, and dispel a myth we had all believed until now. Darren’s colourful past in the world of music videos is revealed, and he continues his mission to fall out with everyone in the Irish music industry – while also continuing to try to track down Robert Sheehan.

    Bonus: Does He Care?

    Joe is all vibrating atoms and he is delighted to be so, One listener attempts to turn AI against Joe and one of his big claims, but does Joe looks like he cares? Darren doesn't think so and giddiness soon takes over. We consider the legacy of our time on stall it and how our children and generations of the future will view us. And, in a surprise to nobody, it turns out Darren’s brain is nothing but ads. Send all of your questions and comments to stallit@goloudnow.com

    Ep 209: Superstar Networking

    The entire Irish music scene is a target for Darren, as he airs some grievances at 4am, and contacts Fontaines DC to ask (maybe begging?) for a favour. But that’s not where the celeb name dropping ends, oh no. Darren has also been attracting new superstar followers, and is now considering bring a little glamour and star power to his newest ad (it’s for wheelbarrows). Joe has word of a fledgling theatre career in his family, and he’s got himself into a bit of a bind by accidentally ending up as a football pundit alongside a former Ireland manager – on live radio. Darren has been on the bus again, but his latest experience might scare him back to taxis – and Joe’s head is full of numbers, too many numbers. We also have a rare and overdue mention of the City Imp bus. Send all of your comments and questions to stallit@goloudnow.com

    Bonus: No Joe’s Go To Heaven

    Joe gets in a few tricky spots this week, and that’s before he ends up in a chokehold in the pub. He was up to his old tricks and got spotted by an eagle eyed Stall It listener, who was good enough to pass that information on to us. Let this become the start of a trend. We have more surreal examples of people being caught watching porn in public, and it’s changed the way Joe thinks about the oldest generation. There’s a scathing criticism of something Joe has done recently, from one listener who is outraged and promising McGucken has given up his hopes of making it to heaven. We hear dreams of robot back scratchers and a listener uncovers a long lost piece of cinema horror we've been waiting for. Send all of your tip offs about Joe’s activities to stallit@goloudnow.com

    Ep 208: High Brow Filth

    Is Mr Tayto in fact the alter ego of one of Ireland’s most famous broadcasters? James Joyce’s letters to his wife, which are not on TikTok and therefore brand new to Darren Conway. A content warning here, in case you needed one, but (thanks to James Joyce) there is some stuff in this episode that is absolutely not suitable for younger ears. Please, please don’t play this around the kids. A listener sends us his own news report on the previously imagined assassination of Darren and paints for us a picture of a community in mourning – while also freaking out Mr. Conway. Glitches in the matrix that Joe should have spotted, from an unseasonable stew to a bizarre party bear in the middle of the flats. A fact checking of Eoin causes hysterical giddiness, and we have a deluge of criticism for Joe coming from listeners, which we’re only too happy to encourage.

    Bonus: The Bubbaloo Two

    Is it better to have a perfect memory, or the ability to forget any moment we choose? Somehow this ends up with a reminiscence of rotisserie chickens and half pounds of brawn. We get an offer of an archaeological escapade that seems too good to turn down – but will probably be turned down. There’s word of a petition to bring classic ice creams back to the their former glory, and we have to be pulled back from falling down a deep hole of chat on crisps and ice creams. And ultimately we fall so far that Eoin wonders if this may be our worst episode ever, but Darren firmly believes it one of the best ever. Listen and decide for yourself.

    207: The Assassination of Darren Conway

    Would it make the news if Darren was assassinated in the studio? How big would his funeral be? Would al of Finglas weep for their loss? Would influencers take over the ceremony? Would Joe climbing Mount Everest make the news? Is oxygen while climbing the world’s tallest peak little more than modern day softness? The comments section on the podcast has taken off in popularity, and to reward that newfound engagement we’re going to field some of them. Darren takes great offence to one that comes after his driving skill. We wander into a cul de sac of researching cannibalism through the ages, from humans to animals – and Joe is accusing all animals of being guilty of the worst of behaviour. That leads us to hearing about the youngest rulers of empires throughout history, some tyrannical, some hysterical and (somehow) we end up fact checking if there were sharks in the colosseum. Joe has been delving into the deepest waters of trash reality TV once again, and once again brings us his personal review of his latest obsession – this time it’s on a boat, with ignorant millionaires berating a hard working crew. Darren announces his retirement from the vlogging circuit, to great public despair. And we wonder if it is illegal to watch porn in a pub, or just hugely frowned upon. Please send all of your comments, questions and deep dive suggestions to us at stallit@goloudnow.com

    Bonus: Farmyard Fools

    As usual, we get some questions that leave us exasperated and confused – thank you for them. Darren admits he’d love nothing more than lasers in his eyes and it emerges he has a strange fixation with punching walls – or having the ability to do it anyway. We field a question about a sunburned bullock and a flimsy excuse, and display a general ignorance of the farming life. Darren tries to use the podcast to finagle his way into a sponsorship deal with a very particular sponsor, and some that have us blackening the reputation of many animal species.
