Talking Bollox Podcast

Ryan Caldwell talks about his book White Lines and the life behind it, from Belfast rugby dreams to Ulster, Ireland and the Premiership. The episode follows the physical and mental cost of that journey, and how he found a way back after depression, addiction and prison.

This episode dives into a listener beef that has escalated into a diss track, with Eoin asked to decide whether it counts as art or all-out war. From coffee froth frustration to tipping culture, taxi-driver tutting, and oddball debates, it sounds loose, chaotic, and very funny.

Relationships are the focus here, as Louise Carroll joins Terence and Calvin to unpack red flags, gaslighting, recurring couple patterns, and the pursuer/distancer dynamic. The episode also weaves in Louise’s own path from Navan to Jigsaw, music with the Blizzards, and a reset in Costa Rica.

Ireland international footballers, a fantasy five-a-side, and a campaign to lure Terence back on stage drive this bonus episode. It mixes listener questions with playful arguments about embarrassment, fear, odd public habits, and whose mind would be the worst place to get stuck in.

Casper Walsh returns in a very different phase of life, reflecting on the highs of Versatile and the crash that followed. He talks about getting sober, finding faith, building a solo career, and landing his first major lead acting role.
