    Episode 12: Putting The Agony in Agony Aunt with Fionnuala Jay

    Following hot in the heels of Queen Linda Martin, Pádraig had big boots to fill and so pulled out the big guns and is joined by fellow Cork icon, reality TV expert and podcast hoe Fionnuala Jay for her inaugural episode of The Voicenote and to begin her role as resident Agony Aunt!
    After catching up on Fionnuala's recent travelling escapades, chatting about the return of Fionnuala's first podcast, Bandwagons with best pal, Bríd and reminiscing on a recent chaotic night out, the pair sit down to go full on Agony Aunties.
    A call was put out for chaotic dilemmas and that’s exactly what was received. Pádraig and Fionnuala discuss friendship, fellas and freaky fantasies as they try to solve listeners problems and give the best advice the indecisive pair can muster up.
    They are truly giving the Irish answer to Holly and Phil (pre alleged feud of course!)
    You can hear more from Fionnuala on her podcasts Flop Culture and Bandwagons and over on Instagram.
    As ever, you can follow Pádraig on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok.

Just listened to Linda’s episode…..weak for you to go for drinks 🍾🥂🍸

No to cows milk

If cows milk is in then so is global warming cause animal agriculture is the leading cause of climate change according to the experts. Also it’s supposed to grow a baby cow into a full sized heifer- it’s not for humans! Not to mention all of the forcible impregnating and slaughter of baby male cows cause they don’t produce milk. The dairy industry is sad and I don’t think we need to be promoting it. Love the podcast though!
