WHY ARE YOU A DOSE?
Darren manages to gain access to McCooey's Fortress of Solitude to record the latest episode. We answer a few Instagram questions, and chat nonsense while Ollie the dog flashes his anus at us intermittently.
Good boy.
Good boy.

TOO SKIMPY FOR PATREON
Darren and Lianne wrongly think that 19 minutes constitute a viable offering as a Patreon episode, and given that 13 of those minutes are Lianne talking about Liberty X, that's a real cheek altogether.

RAW PANIC
The raw and unedited rebirth of the Panic Station Podcast - the choice of a New Generation....of Newry people. Darren and Lianne trade insults, early 2000 anecdotes, and offer up limited information about their future plans to Make Newry Great Again.
Stay tuned to see this whole thing unravel in front of your eyes/ears, but it'll get slicker every episode 🔥

The Tenth One - How to Make a Balls of Business, but Gain Wisdom Along the Way
McCooey is interviewed by Wayne Denner for the Zero Lives Left Podcast, and chats about the litany of mistakes and good fortune that led to the mess she's in today. A decent listen for anyone considering starting their own business in a small town in Northern Ireland.

The 8th One: Diamonds Are Forever
Possibly the most fun podcast I've done. Bronagh Diamond and I have the absolute craic whilst I get drunk

The 7th One: Wedding Bellends
A lovely chat with the Viral Sensation of NI - Mr Paddy Raff, sometimes known as Nigel. We talk about starting out in stand-up, creepy wedding songs; and I bookend the chat by talking shit about LuvBug, djing at a wedding myself, and why I resent being asked to weddings in the first place.

After seeing a discarded packet of nuts from 1992 in a ditch, McCooey decides to record what is essentially a load of tangents - with the help of Wikipedia and contributions from The Instasphere

The Fourth One: Suits you McCoo
McCooey (McCoo) chats to The Belfast Tailor about trance music, Creme Eggs in porridge, how to handle trolls and the most famous balls he's ever cupped. His favourite song ever follows the chat, so keep listening

The Third One: Little Pandemic Thoughts
Lianne chats to Annette Kelly via the medium of Facebook Messenger, hence the slightly erratic audio. Annette is an all-round banter merchant, proud Tyrone girl, content creator and wellness peddler. Check her out online where she's better known as one half of Little Penny Thoughts.

The Second One
What would you write in a letter to your 15 year old self? McCooey has a few ideas, but drinking a bottle of Pinot Grigio before recording makes monologues hard to follow.
