    The Sardine Challenge, Lobster Escapes & What Really Happens in Abattoirs

    27/08/2026 | 30 mins.
    What happens when you eat nothing but canned sardines for three days straight? In this Thursday edition of the Not So Christian Brothers, Justin Caffrey, Colm Hayes, and Terry Tech dig into extreme dietary shifts, from pure carnivore living to vegetarianism, ketosis, and the sudden realization that sleeping in the spare room might be necessary after a seafood binge.
    The lads share unbelievable stories from past jobs, including Justin’s teenage experience training at an abattoir and Colm’s chaotic stint working with Christmas turkeys. They also recall a bizarre lobster rescue attempt in Puerto Banús, debate the ethics of seafood preparation, and tackle the ultimate question: how did humans ever decide to start eating eggs?

    Is modern complaining out of control, or are we just standing up for better standards?

    Are the Rose of Tralee & Modern Culture Getting Out of Hand?

    20/08/2026 | 29 mins.
    Has television entertainment lost its mind, or are we just watching the world change? In this week's episode of the Not So Christian Brothers, Colm Hayes and Justin Caffrey unpack the cultural phenomenon that is the Rose of Tralee. From Irish dancing fused with Somali culture to stage-made spice bags, the team debates whether the iconic pageant has truly evolved or if the format is as frivolous as ever.
    The conversation takes a dive into tech and global power as the brothers dissect Elon Musk’s plans to remake Homer’s Odyssey using full AI, the rise of tech narcissism, and space tourism. Plus, the team explores bizarre historical and global death rituals, from traditional Irish "keeners" or professional mourners to South American family traditions.

In this Sunday After-Show, Colm Hayes, Justin Caffrey, and Terry Tech react to the mind-boggling reality of modern 20-somethings attending upwards of 31 weddings in twelve months—complete with destination trips, pizza vans, and two-day celebrations.
