I'm Grand Mam

The boys had their first author event this week and the imposter syndrome was going ninety but then they met Anne Doyle and she hugged and kissed them and all was okay in the world again. It's been a month since Kevin's tooth ordeal and though his smile might be back to normal he is yet to recover from the mental trauma (traama) of it all so he decides to unpack things in this weeks episode and they also read out other dental disaster stories.Preorder The I'm Grand Mamual from:Easons / Dubray / BookstationSign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

This week the boys announced that they are releasing their own book, The I'm Grand Mamual and they couldn't be more excited. They are well and truly in their author era and so it will come as no surprise to learn that they choose reading as the theme for the week. They talk about giving big main character energy when they were writing chapters of the book on their laptops in random cafés and reveal that when they came up with the iconic title for the book they put their pens down and took the rest of the day off to congratulate themselves on a job well done. They also make a promise to do something chaotic should the book become a bestseller.Preorder The I'm Grand Mamual from: Easons / Dubray / BookstationSign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

After a brief hiatus following the release of their 100th episode, the boys are back and they’re giddier and gayer than ever. Though he looks much younger than PJ, Kevin recently turned 30 and the pair use the opportunity to share twenty things they wish they knew in their twenties. From top-knot regret to learning to love carrot cake, the boys do a deep dive of their last decade in the hope that others can learn from their mistakes.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

To celebrate making it to their hundredth episode the lads decide to do a live recording in Dublin with a few of the nearest and dearest and some of the Patreon girlies. They discuss their antics on the Late Late and read out some of the chaotic tweets that have been hurled their way, speak to their mams and get roasted by a few of their funny friends. They also surprise each other to mark the special occasion.Special thanks to Feargh Curtis, Megan Curtis, Peter McGann, Fionnuala Jay, Shane Daniel Byrne and the team at The Mayson.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

PJ has just landed in London and reveals the ordeal he went through with a spoiled child in M&S. Meanwhile Kevin is still slightly traumatised from a recent dog walking venture with his new friend who he decides to call Clifford for the sake of identity protection.Inspired by Seachtain na Gaeilge the lads talk about their love of their native tongue after a rocky theme intro from PJ. They speak about Irish college, whether they think Irish should be compulsory in schools and mention some of their favourite Irish phrases, enlisting the help of some of their Gaeilgeoir friends for a bit more snas.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Míle buíochas,@lauralolslots@eoinkeane101@gaylgeoiri@muinteoirmeg@blathnaidruaPurchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The boys are recording together in Dublin as Kevin was over for an event that they were both asked to DJ at. As part of the set they did Rock The Boat and the lads reckon it was one of the hardest ab workouts they've done in ages. Also in the catchup, Kevin recounts a suspected crime he witnessed on the tube. The theme for the week is comfort food and they start off by ripping the food pyramid to shreds and deduce that it's not nutritionally sound and that it was all an inside job to get us to consume more dairy. PJ tells us how he was seduced by Jose's skills in the kitchen and Kevin shares that he's lucky to be alive having eaten the radioactive cupcakes from his sister's Easy-Bake Oven growing up. They then read out people's perfect hangover cures and rip the piss out of a girl who loves dried mango and dark chocolate because that's just notions.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The episode starts off with a mystery to solve. Kevin was accosted in the streets en route to the record and they need try and find out who the men in question were. PJ meanwhile is busy being boring making his own kombucha. It's giving snore. The theme for the week in flirting and the lads discuss the perennial problem of being a friendly Irish gay person in London; it's often mistaken for flirting. They talk about flirting in the early days by leaving a crush a litany of voicemails and they also test out their flirting techniques on each other to not much avail.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

PJ has given Kevin the ick because he keeps referring to the work they do together as 'content' and it makes Kevin feel like they live in a Tik Tok hype house. They then spend the rest of the catch-up fawning over a professional dancer they both had a crush on back in the day. The focus is then shifted towards the topic of nerves. Though they're quite calm and collected for the most part these days, when they were younger Kevin was up in a heap when he had to give a speech to the Lord Mayor and PJ recalls how his stomach once slipped out his ass when he was taking a dance class and someone whipped out a camera.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

PJ has noticed a few changes in Kevin from having spent the last few days with him in London. He's very impressed with his cooking abilities which have come a long way since his Linda McCartney sausage days and he also thinks that Kevin has elevated his outfits. A change that Kevin has not welcomed is the fact that he is now in his klutz era; he took a hopper in his most recent Crossfit class and was mortified. Did Kevin mention he does Crossfit now?The theme is gambling and despite the fact that the lads aren't massive risk-takers themselves they suggest what forms of gambling they could be allured by and offer interior-design advice for the bookies to get more gay punters through the door because currently the decor is not giving.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

PJ just arrived in London and tells us how triggered he is from all the chaotic people he encountered in Dublin Airport before his flight and Kevin is still traumatised from an accident he had at the weekend which nearly gave him a sexy scar. The theme for the week is bullying and the lads start off by discussing the fact that when they were in school a new anti-bullying campaign was shoved in their face every week but they're not sure how effective the campaigns were. They talk about the ridiculous insults people used in their teens, Kevin buying McDonald's for a girl who had her phone screen smashed by bullies and they reveal why they refuse to stop using the term 'hetty'.

Kevin is back in London but his return wasn't all plain sailing as he tells us of the ordeal he went through with his suitcase at Heathrow Airport. In celebrity news, Molly Mae and Tommy Fury have just called their newborn baby Bambi and the lads reckon people shouldn't worry about the girl having to apply for a mortgage with that name because her mam is minted. The theme for the week is money management and Kevin and PJ discuss their spending habits and question whether they need to start being more sensible when it comes to budgeting now that they're approaching their thirties. They then read chaotic submissions from listeners who have spent their money on ridiculous bits including a mad thing who spent €180 on two mugs from Germany.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

Well, Kevin has finally finished with Sleeping Beauty and is slightly hungover for the record as he was out late for the wrap party. He’s also slightly h word which PJ takes issue with. Though his contract has come to an end he is still carrying the weight of being a 'role model' for the next generation of performers, a title he takes quite seriously and is kind of obsessed with. The boys then dissect Spare, the new memoir from Prince Harry, though they already know an awful lot about the contents of the book by seeing things online and against their own will. They take a look at the most chaotic aspects of the book and question why a man of his age uses words like todger and gan gan. No need for it. They also have great difficulty in ascertaining the difference between the North and South Pole but at least they’re both pretty.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The boys are recording in PJ's house in Dublin and Kevin expresses his concern that the cats have taken over the gaff since his last visit. The boys are mortified because they have slowly come to the realisation that sea swims are a small bit stunning but were taking the piss out of sea swimmers for ages so now they're eating their words.Then, because the boys are still on an engagement buzz, they go through listeners' submissions of chaotic wedding moments; from brides getting their toes sucked to a nan having their wrist broken in the bouquet toss, some of the stories are absolutely bananas!Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

It's the first episode of 2023 and Kevin is still using the term chillaxing but we move. The lads have a quick catch-up on what they got up to over Christmas and New Year's and both come to the conclusion that they detest Snuggies (sorry Lindsey). But the big news is that Jose got down on one knee on New Year's eve and popped the question and PJ felt like he was having an out-of-body experience and said yes so now they've a wedding to save for and Kevin is obviously weak for them but is also weak for the fact that this means loads of extra content for the podcast. Also PJ shares details of his stunning engagement ring and Kevin reveals how he was tempted to leak a photo of the ring to the press.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

It's the last episode of 2022 and what better way to kick things off than pondering over the dilemma of whether you would shag Tom Hardy or not if he was your first cousin. 2022 has been all over the gaff but the boys do their best to try and reflect on the nicer moments of the last 12 months. Kevin and PJ also give some chaotic predictions for the year ahead and question whether peplum will ever have the resurgence it so rightly deserves.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

Kevin had his opening night of the pantomime but the first show didn't go as smoothly as he would have liked and he was a small bit traumatised. PJ is also a small bit traumatised this week as he has developed a lisp since he started wearing his new retainer. Then because they had a load of submissions that they never got to last time they read out some more mortifying moments. There's a story about a waitress assaulting a customer who she believed to be her friend with a menu, a woman having a really awkward encounter with a mirror in a shop in Dublin and an altar server who took their role at the church a little too seriously and the lads are left squealing at the chaos of it all.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

PJ has once again gotten the train down to Cork to see Kevin as the lads agree that the vibes are always immaculate when they’re recording in person together but one thing they’re not happy about is the fact that the sweet trolley hasn’t yet made a return to Iarnród Éireann. PJ was Christmas decoration shopping at the weekend and is feeling all kinds of festive and the lads discuss chaotic gifts they asked Santa for in the past.They then turn their attention to embarrassing moments prompted by a mortifying encounter Kevin had in London with a tote-bearing girl he presumed to be a fan of the pod. They talk about the fact that they don’t really get too embarrassed themselves and that it’s more-so the little things that send them spiralling. But one thing they both agree on is the fact that David Beckham should definitely be mortified for himself. They then read some listener submissions of embarrassing stories.  Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The episode begins with PJ having a bone to pick with Kevin regarding a hidden hairdryer in his house.The theme for the week is beauty pageants and to kick things off they play the incomparable 2007 Miss Teen USA quote regarding Americans' inability to locate the US on a world map before moving on to discuss the chaos and short-comings of the Rose of Tralee contest and its unhinged predecessor Calor Housewife of the Year. And of course how could the world of pageantry be explored without speaking about the stunning work of Sandra Bullock in the camp cult classic, Miss Congeniality.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The episode begins with an unprovoked attack against the layout of PJ's kitchen, though really the only person at fault is the sadistic cowboy builder who left the Kirby household with three fake drawers and a shortage of sockets. The boys also share their disdain of personalised mugs with photos and cursive fonts and Kevin reckons PJ's sister Lindsey should know better. Then, prompted by the similarity between PJ and the picture of Bono on the front of his new book the boys put their U2 discography knowledge to the test. The theme this week is astrology and the lads are fairly sceptical of the whole stars and crystals thing but find a stunning website which kind of convinces them that there's some truth and accuracy to it.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The episode starts with the lads announcing that Kevin is appearing in the Cork Opera House pantomime this year (oh yes he is etc etc) and how he already has a romanticised vision of his Christmas in Cork. The pair then move on to the theme for this week which is accents and ponder whether the podcast would be as successful as it is if it wasn’t for their Cork accents. They also have very little faith in the suggestion that Irish people have the sexiest accent in the world (surely not like?) and put their acting skills to the test by taking famous movie quotes and giving them a Leeside spin.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The lads recently went on a trip to the Royal Albert Hall to see Sam Smith with Universal Music Ireland and came to the realisation that they do in fact like concerts as long as it’s seated and the setting is glamour. They then turn their attention towards the theme this week ‘dreams’ and because they’re pretty clueless on the topic, even when it comes to their own chaotic dreams, they call on the help of expert and author Delphi Ellis to help explore the subject further. She helps the lads debunk some dream myths, helps Kevin analyse the phrase ‘It’s Chico time’ and speaks of a new phenomenon whereby people are so stressed about getting 8 hours sleep a night that they can’t cope and their sleep is inhibited further.Delphi’s book Answers in the Dark: Grief, Sleep and How Dreams Can Help You Heal can be purchased on Amazon or HiveSign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

There’s not much time to have a catch up on the weeks’ antics in this episode as a long-anticipated guest is in PJ’s kitchen and is an eager beaver and buzzing to record. Despite a hectic school schedule, Pádraig has finally managed to make it in front of the mic and he wastes no time in divulging dating app interactions, his very first impressions of Kevin way back in primary school and just how mad he is about his own mam. The episode also features chaotic questions from supposed friends of Padraig’s and PJ and Pádraig go head to head in a bid to be Kevin’s best man.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

After a few weeks off following the passing of Kevin’s Dad Jerry, the boys are back and are picking up where they left off. They talk about Jerry and how he was one of the podcast’s biggest supporters and how much of a legend he was in general. The lads know he’s going to be watching over them and keeping a close eye on their future projects.Kevin shares that because it’s been a whirlwind of a year he has recently started therapy and though he’s loving it he’s worried he’s too hung up on having his therapist like him. PJ has two new cats Happy and Sailor and he speaks about finding the balance now that he’s a working mam. They then talk about what they miss about each other now than they’re no longer living together and what they don’t miss as much and Kevin reveals what term PJ likes to use in lieu of 'excuse me' when he passes wind.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmam ✨RIP Jerry Twomey 1958 - 2022 🤍Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

It’s been a hectic few days for the boys as PJ tells us of his ordeal sorting out flights to Oz for his mam and Kevin shares the details of a new foxy friend who has decided to pay him a visit at his house in London. Then prompted by the talk of someone bringing their dog on a first date they discuss icks; things that are instant turn-offs, making your skin crawl and killing your boner. The boys soon realise however that they’re kind of into a lot of the icks that the girlies have, especially Kevin when it concerns anything relating to the male foot.Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmamPurchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The lads are are still recovering after Dublin Pride having hosted the main stage at Mother but still have the energy to divulge the details of the weekends’ antics. Kevin also finds the energy to have a go at the PR companies for being cheapskates and only sending bits to PJ because he lives in Dublin.They then go from reality to the world of fiction and discuss everything to do with telling lies. Growing up gay they had to lie about who they were in order to protect themselves which makes them question if it is okay to lie sometimes. They also dress Kevin’s lying compulsion and he comes clean about his condition and read out chaotic lies submitted by listeners which makes them feel better about their lie-telling tendencies.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

And just like that the boys are back into the swing of things. They’re on a high off the back of the official release of the single and are slightly raging that Beyoncé dropped her bop in the same week. Also in the same week Harry styles was spotted sea swimming in Dublin and it made the lads h word.Prompted by the pandemonium taking place within airports across the globe, Kevin and PJ tackle catching flights and not feelings as the theme for the week. They discuss airport pet peeves, the unmistakable energy exuded by cabin crew and their thoughts around joining the mile high club.Sign up to the Patreon for more stunning content: https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmamPurchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

Amongst other things, PJ’s now based in Dublin, they’ve a new jingle for the podcast and everyone wants to shag Kevin. They speak about how obsessed they were with seeing ABBA Voyage but were petrified at the same time because it’s all a bit Black Mirror. They then debut their new single, the gay anthem of the summer, Fast Lane. Prompted by their new-found vocations as pop stars they discuss faking it until you make it and not having a notion about something but giving off the energy that you do. Donate to LGBT Ireland's Key Support Worker Fund 🏳️‍🌈: https://gofund.me/bb4a33ed Stream Fast Lane 🏁: https://open.spotify.com/track/3sgShMJBa9Uw7NfHgfwAoC?si=23e3710ac0c5412cPurchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

This weeks episode very nearly didn’t happen as Kevin’s voice is virtually non-existent having attended a Britney-themed night out at the weekend and then having taught two spin classes back to back the next morning but being the professional he is, he soldiers on. They talk about the latest addition to PJ’s tattoo collection and wish a happy birthday to a special man in their lives.They then speak to their friend Lauren Mahon (IG: @Iamlaurenmahon) otherwise known as GirlVsCancer and talk about her inspiring story of building a community of support and raising thousands of pounds for charity following her breast cancer diagnosis in 2016.

The boys are feeling rested and refreshed as PJ spent the week with the boyf in Dublin and Kevin had the gaff to himself so he was in his element. They talk about the fact that Rihanna has become a billionaire which means that if we’re to eat the rich then we’re going to have to hide her down in West Cork somewhere as she’s one of the good ones.The theme for this week is fights and feuds even though Kevin couldn’t punch his way out of a paper bag. They recall physical altercations they’ve had in the past, discuss iconic celebrity fall-outs and name people they reckon they could take in a fight (so Niall Horan watch out babe).Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The episode starts off with Kevin taking the piss out of PJ for purchasing a rose gold fan because PJ has always been so vocal about the fact that he despises anything in that colour. And because Kevin’s hairdryer blew up just before the record they put out an appeal to Dyson to send them a fan and new hairdryer. Pretty please?Confessions are back due to popular demand and of course they’re as chaotic as ever. From faking Leaving Cert results to a stunning life hack on how to quickly get rid of a tricky number two, the girlies do not disappoint with their disclosures.

The lease on the lads’ gaff is nearly up and they’re contemplating moving elsewhere but Kevin has grown too attached to having a bedroom on the ground floor and reckons he would fare well in a bungalow. They also discuss a wedding they’re both due to attend and because Kevin won't know anyone there he's planning to adopt a different persona for the duration of the event.They then have a chat about starting a family as a queer person and speak with Ranae von Meding (IG: @ranaevonmeding), the CEO and co-founder of Equality For Children, an organisation who are doing stunning work fighting for the rights of children of LGBTQ+ families.ResourcesEquality for ChildrenWebsite: https://equalityforchildren.ieIG: @equalityforchildrenSome Families PodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2V1wyqzWMA1obU90Z85dkp?si=bobmE3lNTZivwyjkplsElw&dl_branch=1SeahorseWebsite: https://seahorsefilm.com/watchPurchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The lads starts off by issuing a public apology to their fave Roy Keane after Kevin’s brother informed them that he did not in fact throw a boot at Mick McCarthy. Mortified. The pair then discuss a theme that’s a combination of two of their favourite things; summer and camp - summer camp! They discuss their experiences of summer camps in their youth, the struggle to make friends whilst there, teaching kids at camps and the iconic Irish drink known simply as Rasa.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The boys have one question and one question only; when are the Euros over? They can’t stand all the football lads being loud and causing a raucous but are both in agreement that Roy Keane is a ride. Prompted by having the word ‘gay’ shouted at them this week by a stranger and because Pride month has just come to a close they talk about the importance of being proud 365 days a year and being visibly and unashamedly queer and all the work that is still left to be done to make the world a better place for the LGBTQ+ community. Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

It’s been a week of makeovers girlies and the lads are only itching to tell all about their new looks. It appears the new aesthetics have been perfectly timed as Kevin and PJ also reveal that they’ve landed a new tv gig talking all things Love Island on The 6 O’ Clock Show and they are absolutely weak for themselves but are up in a heap because they’ve no nice clothes. Excitement aside, they turn their attention to conspiracy theories but in true I’m Grand Mam style it’s a bit of a struggle as they can’t wrap their heads around some of the more difficult concepts (still don’t have a clue what the Mandela Effect is). They also talk about The Illuminati, Shakespeare being a pure snake, celebs ordering kids on their pizza and Avril Lavigne dying a death. They also talk about some of their own conspiracy theories and share their plans of starting a new versh of the Feis Maitiú competition.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

Most of the catch-up this week consists of PJ dragging Kevin for his choice of shirt which is completely deserved as it is quite tragic and reeks of a nan. Kevin also details a recent near death experience on his bike which left him completely traumatised because he feared he’d die with helmet hair.The lads then turn their attention to the world of plastic surgery and body augmentation. They talk about bits they’d like to have done, the chaotic noughties TV show 'The Swan' and also read out some body-mod submissions made by listeners who share the good, the bad and the completely chaotic.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The lads spent the weekend on an inflatable boat and though the world knows all about it because of Instagram they both felt obliged to mention it on the podcast too because it was so unreal. Also, their best friend Paul won a BAFTA and this also gets a mention in the catchup. For this weeks episode Kevin and PJ answer questions submitted by the listeners and though he's spoken about working on board a cruise ship a million times before Kevin spills the tea on one of the most chaotic moments he had whilst on board the 'giant shopping centre on water'.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

It’s Pride month and the weather is stunning and corporations are jumping on the performative allyship bandwagon once again and saying they love the gays and are calling us queens which leads the lads to deliver a v important PSA; stop calling gay people 'queen' immediately.The lads also talk about their tv debut and Kevin discloses his iconic skincare hack for a glowing complexion and then the pair turn their attention to the theme for this week which is toxic masculinity. From lads shadowboxing in the gym in between sets to not being able to open up about how they’re feeling, PJ and Kevin discuss just how chaotic (and damaging) this behaviour can be.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

TW // deathNature is healing as the lads celebrate their first proper hangover in what feels like forever. And because they were dying all day Sunday the lads thought it was only fitting to choose death as the theme this week. From planning their own funerals to writing their own wills and choosing what they’d like to be reincarnated as, the pair are well and truly ready for when the grim reaper pays a visit in her cinched black corset and thigh high boots.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The lads are still on a high from their first episode back and their week was made all the more enjoyable by the talented piano player next door. The joy didn’t last long however as they discovered that J*mes C*rdon would be part of the much anticipated Friends reunion. The theme this week is queer nightlife and the lads talk about the significance of queer spaces for LGBTQ people, their fave gay clubs to frequent and etiquette for cis-hetero people who want in on the fun including a lengthy list of songs you should never under any circumstances request from a DJ at a gay bar. Or any bar for that matter.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The lads are back with season 5 and they promise it's going to be the biggest skittybang of a season to date. They catch up on what they got up to during their break; Kevin turned 28 and got a 'no junkmail' sign for the letterbox and PJ died his hair green and got a new personality. Then prompted by their iconic new season promo video in which they skydive from a plane at 11,500 feet in the air they talk about other items on their bucket list. From slapping childhood bullies to being taught how to salsa by a sexy fella in South America, the boys want to do it all (except run a marathon because like what a trek).Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

The lads decide to finish off the season in the most wholesome way possible by having the iconic duo Nuala and Phil on for the chats and they do not disappoint. The conversation starts off with the mammies talking about their love for the podcast and becoming accidental influencers and how they’d love a few free bits from Lancôme and Dermalogica 👀They are then tested on their knowledge of gay slang and the lads are gooped and gagged by how much their mams know....Yasss Qweens!If you’re craving more content then check out the Patreon https://www.patreon.com/imgrandmamPurchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

January isn’t even over and we’ve already received one of the hottest headlines to ever grace a tabloid paper; ‘PJ Kirby Is Growing The Gruaig’ and of course Kevin doesn’t waste the opportunity to rip the piss out of him for it. And then because the lads are admittedly ‘scraping the barrel’ they open up the episode to questions submitted by listeners. It turns out to be an incredibly candid episode with the boys telling us about some of the major fights they’ve had, stealing granola from landladies and a detailed description of a chaotic anniversary tarpaulin. Also Joe Wicks’ fart gets a mention.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

2021 is off to a chaotic start and in Kevin’s words has almost felt like a ‘fever dream’. From right-wing terrorists storming The Capitol to white gays sinking a cruise ship in Puerto Vallarta, it seems like 2021 has simply switched wigs with 2020 and the lads can't cope. The theme for this week is beauty and grooming and the boys finally drop that skin-care regime because we know you’ve been gagging to know the secret behind the glow. They talk about the pressure of being well-groomed as gay men and how some hetero Irish lads get away with murder and they also read out some horror stories in a section they’ve aptly named Beautiful Disasters.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.

2020 is finally over and the lads couldn’t be more obsessed. But what exactly have they learned about themselves in the most chaotic year they’ve ever lived through? The boys start by reflecting on their resolutions from last year which are all laughable really but there is something to be said for Kevin’s prediction that it wasn’t going to be his year. They then recount the most implicitly queer moments of 2020; instances you didn’t know were très gay at first glance, but upon further reflection were actually as gay as a bottle of Super Rush in a young twink's spray-on Topman skinny jeans' pocket or PJ choosing a Prada clutch as his luxury item in a zombie apocalypse.

It’s the Christmas special nobody asked for but you’re getting anyway and what better way to spread some festive cheer than with some minimalist metallic nails that PJ got done in a fancy nail gaf in Soho. The lads waste no time and get straight into discussing iconic Christmas movies, gay gifts they wish they’d have had the courage to ask for when they were younger and the origins of Santa Claus, who we learn came from very humble beginnings in the country that is now Turkey but God knows what it was called at the time as PJ only watched snippets of a 15 minute video on Youtube.

It’s been an eventful week in the girlie’s gaf with Kevin ordering an antenna for the tv which means he can finally catch up on watching Tipping Point and The Chase, though PJ argues that The Cube is actually superior to both. Then they tackle the theme for this week which is unpopular opinions, prompted by PJ disclosing earlier in the week that he thinks some babies are ugly, a sentiment which Kevin disagrees with vehemently. They share their own unpopular opinions (which results in a fight over the name Finbarr) and give their take on some of the chaotic unpopular opinions sent in by listeners. One listener chimed in to say they think the phrase chaotic is overused which we think is chaotic.

2020 has been a year of unexpected events but one thing we never could have predicted was Kevin going viral over a Percy Pig tweet. The lads discuss the pig pandemonium and the hype of last week’s toy show before addressing the theme for this week which is money. They talk money troubles, being poor paupers when first moving to London and panicking every time they had to pay for their grocery shopping, chaotic money splurges and the supposed greatest investment made by any child born in the 90's; the infamous Beanie Baby.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here 🎟️Sign up to the I'm Grand Mam Patreon for more stunning content ✨ Hosted on Acast.
