    Ep 230 - Find the Fixer Upper

    This week the lads are pondering the benefits of taking on a bit of fixer upper when dating; the return on investment is tenfold, girls! They also discuss PJ’s grooming habits, and Kevin sings “boots, that’s my ego boost” approximately 704 times.  Then for the theme, the boys are covering something near and dear to their hearts: the TV talent show. They reminisce on everything from Cher Lloyd’s iconic Halloween cover of Stay, to Ireland’s best talent show, You’re A Star. They also make some pretty big claims, including that Girls Aloud’s discography is better than the Spice Girls. Fight amongst yourselves in the comments, girlies.

    Ep 229 - Chilli on the Willy

    Kevin’s feeling a bit under the weather this week, and PJ’s advice isn’t going down too well. This week, the lads talk all about pretentious London yoga classes, hot instructors and PJ’s recent D.I.Y. successes, before unpacking the perils of cooking with chillies. Just an average day at I’m Grand Mam HQ! For the theme, inspired slightly by Heated Rivalry, they dive into double lives. Covering everything from Hannah Montana to spy Mata Hari and actor Rock Hudson, they realise that queer people can particularly relate to the idea of having a double life. They then read some listener stories and take one main thing away from them: having a double life would have them wrecked.

    Ep 228 - By Hook or By Crook

    This week Kevin and PJ recount a tasting menu experience in Lisbon. While they fully respect the ethos of zero-waste restaurants, the lads admit that tackling fermented everything while severely hungover was not their finest moment and the very modest portion sizes did little to lift spirits. For the theme, they dive into the Brooklyn Beckham drama, sharing their thoughts, giving their two cents, and discussing how intimidating it must be to find yourself in a feud where your nemesis is, quite literally, a Spice Girl.

    Ep 227 - I Think in Pink

    The boys are in Lisbon and as gorgeous as the city is Kevin takes a moment to criticise all the hills and cobbled roads that resulted in him falling off a Lime scooter en route to a Crossfit class. PJ reminisces on his chaotic 18th birthday party where fake IDs and stray fists were in plentiful supply. Prompted by this episode coming out on Blue Monday the lads have a discussion about made up holidays and ask why January is such a depressing month and Kevin puts forward a bid for dry January to be changed to a dry November going forward because the month is already horrendous enough as it is. They also make plans for celebrating I'm Grand Mam day which is happening on the 16th of February when the podcast celebrates 7 years in production.

    Ep 226 - But Who Are We To Judge?

    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.

    Ep 225 - Rally The Troops

    This week PJ discovers that his mam has her priest’s personal number and has been quietly organising communion drop offs via Whatsapp while she’s been unable to attend mass with her leg, which raises several questions for the lads. There is also a live tasting of José’s homemade biscuits in studio and Kevin recalls the antics of his Crossfit Christmas night out. For the theme the lads share their ins and outs for the year. PJ declares contradicting yourself firmly in and WHOOPS officially out, while Kevin predicts that 2026 will be a big year for corn and but he says he'd like to see the end of the focaccia sandwich.

    Ep 224 - We Don't Judge, We Serve

    This Christmas Kevin and PJ are back home in Cork for a very special charity episode recorded with Cork Penny Dinners. They sit down with General Manager Sharon Murphy to chat about the history of the charity and the incredible work it does not just at Christmas, but 365 days of the year. From providing hot meals to those who need them most, to expanding into a full community hub on James Street where people can learn IT skills and take part in social inclusion programmes, Cork Penny Dinners is at the heart of the city. 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. If you enjoy the episode and are in a position to do so, they would love for you to consider making a donation too and help support Cork Penny Dinners, which receives no government funding and relies entirely on generosity and community spirit.

    Ep 223 - On The Shoots We Serve Glamour

    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.
