Our understanding of life with Tourette Syndrome has improved in recent years as more celebrities like Lewis Capaldi open up about their struggles as well as films like 'I Swear' showing the realities of the condition which can cause uncontrollable tics. This week, we wanted to hear a first hand account of life with the neurological condition so we spoke to Martin Sturman.
Martin had mild tics as a child but never paid any attention to them until he suffered a traumatic experience in 2022 and the severity increased. He went from blinking and random bursts of song to throwing sandwiches across the room and shouting curses. He told us about not knowing what was happening to him at first, what it feels like to try and suppress a tic, and the public reaction to Tourette's.
Martin has a good sense of humour about it all and told us about the times he's said something that he can't help but laugh at. And he's probably the only guest who can get away with shouting a curse directly at Terence...

Betrayal. Disgrace. Absolute heartbreak. That's how the episode starts and it only goes downhill from there as the Meta Glasses capture some truly poor reading comprehension and questionable pronunciation. Apologies in advance to anyone listening in from Brisbane.
Plans are made and quickly abandoned for a run, dip and sauna and despite the listeners diagnosing Terence he refuses to accept that he might need glasses.

Last Saturday we had probably the biggest guest we've ever had on the podcast - Katie Taylor. And we didn't just record an episode with her, we spent the full day together on her tour bus as she traveled around the country.
We debrief the full day and give you every detail from the numbers of wheels on the bus to the disasters with the Meta glasses. There's also drama from JD the night before and a review of the most shocking part of all - Terence's driving.
As ever, get in touch and let us know what you thought of Katie's episode by emailing TalkingBollox@GoLoudNow.com

Do you ever cry in the night and look at a street light? Specifically the orange ones... These are the important questions Terence is asking in this weeks bonus - And he's not too happy with the answers he gets.
Calvin debates the risk of bouncing on a pogo stick, and there are mathematical equations being done on the maximum number of pigeons that could be carried at any one time.
