• The Shrinking Spire - A Science Week Special

  Does the Spire get taller in the summer? Is buttered toast more likely to fall butter side down? Terence comes prepared for this special episode of Talking Bollox with thanks to Science Week, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.Science week is a national celebration of science with hundreds of events for people of all ages taking place across the country from the 9th – 16th November. This year it’s all about “Then, Today, Tomorrow" and the unexpected experiments that brought about progress, and it's safe to say having a professor come in and answer Terence's questions was an experiment of it's own!Associate Professor in Science Education at UCD, Shane Bergin was our guest and he explained how science is all around us and why we should nurture our natural curiosity in it. If you feel inspired after hearing Shane’s passion for science why not get involved in one of the many Science Week events taking place across the country!

• Episode 240 w/ Andrew Ryan

  We kick this episode off with an update on Terence's health, after he convinced himself, through listening to a previous episode, that he will have to play the ukulele during his surgery. Honestly, we're not surprised by it at all. Our guest co-host comedian Andrew Ryan tells us his own experience with surgery, how grief is a gateway to getting a tattoo and how he ended up in Belfast. He tells Calvin about how much he's enjoyed his first month of marriage and almost has Calvin convinced to get engaged... Almost.
