The Brass Neck Podcast

No Mean Radio

If you’re a Glaswegian, you either have a brass neck or you know someone who does. On The Brass Neck Podcast, I’m reclaiming the phrase as the badge of honour it should be, sitting down each week with artists, grafters, and bold characters who’ve had the nerve to chase something bigger than themselves. We talk about where it all started, the fight it took to keep going, and what happens when you’re brave enough to give it a go.

    The Brass Neck Podcast: Episode 14 With Kevin Brannigan - The Anaphylactic Shock Factor.

    The Brass Neck Podcast: Episode 14 With Kevin Brannigan "The Anaphylactic Shock Factor". “Glasgow has a reputation for being rough, dangerous and intimidating, all of which can be true. What isn’t spoken about enough is the heart that runs through the city and the people who live there. Our humour can be harsh and we laugh at things that shock other people but that all comes from growing up in a place that hasn’t always been easy to live in. Nothing great ever came from taking the easy road and my next guest knows all about that. He took every experience good, bad and ugly and instead of letting it define HIM used it to inspire HER and out came Big Angie. A power house from the East End of a Glasgow who who fights with her tongue and takes no prisoners. Would this have been possible without Barrowfield? That’s not for me to say so I asked the man himself. I’m Jack Jester This is The Brass Neck Podcast and my next guest is… Kevin Brannigan!” Summary 00:00 ~ 00:40 - Introduction to the Brass Neck Podcast 00:40 ~ 05:12 - A Personal Story and Barrowfield Memories 05:12 ~ 06:42 - Humor as a Defense and Life Lessons 06:42 ~ 08:11 - The Macho Culture and Its Impact 08:11 ~ 11:43 - Barrowfield's Unique Characters 11:43 ~ 13:33 - Creative Spark and Personal Growth 13:33 ~ 14:44 - The Journey of Writing and Early Recognition 14:44 ~ 17:07 - Navigating Social Expectations and Personal Identity 17:07 ~ 20:40 - Confrontations and Clever Comebacks 20:40 ~ 22:37 - A Humorous Encounter and Creative Inspiration 22:37 ~ 26:49 - The Birth of Big Angie 26:49 ~ 27:32 - Character Development and Personal Connection 27:32 ~ 28:15 - The Complexity Behind Big Angie's Persona 28:15 ~ 31:16 - Career Challenges and Personal Loss 31:16 ~ 35:23 - Finding Strength and Creativity Amidst Grief 35:23 ~ 36:23 - Personal Reflections and Writing Journey 36:23 ~ 37:32 - Balancing Personal Success and Community Responsibility 37:32 ~ 41:27 - Family Influence and Personal Identity 41:27 ~ 43:07 - Unexpected Health Crisis 43:07 ~ 43:39 - Recovery and Family Support 43:39 ~ 47:05 - A Disturbing Encounter 47:05 ~ 48:19 - A Chaotic Bus Incident 48:19 ~ 49:32 - Police Involvement and Family Reactions 49:32 ~ 50:55 - Podcast Conclusion and a Song STAY BRASS NECKED & FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA Insta: https://www.instagram.com/glasgowjester69/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL835ICVt5Lt3QzZEWdTwirjdWxjoabEkw Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GlasgowJester CONTACT US Web: brassneckpodcast.com Email: hello@brassneckpodcast.com
