In this episode, The Big Mouse and The A-Train discuss their relationships with their neighbours, including sub-topics, such as: - Experiences with growing up in the 1980s and 1990s - Relationships with current neighbours - Quarrels with neighbours and how to resolve them - Community WhatsApp goups This one should be relatable to everyone!

How is your relationship with your ego? How much is too much? Do you take pride in your accomplishments? What about receiving compliments? Egos are running wild on this week's Feckology, brother!

In Episode 2 of Season 3, The Big Mouse and The A-Train attempt to tie in a conversation about not connecting to Irish Culture with a dilemma The Big Mouse is facing about which type of school to send his child to. Does this ham-fisted attempt to make a cohesive discussion about two semi-related points work? The Listener can decide.   Get in touch on X @feckology

Season 3 of Feckology kicks off with The Big Mouse and The A-Train (new season, new moniker) alleging to talk about people management - but mostly taking swipes at Gen Z and overgeneralising wildly. Business as usual.

Join the BM and Prof T for the ultimate episode of season 2. In this bonanza special, we reflect on the highs and lows of season two, a mysterious and important revelation from the BM, and we respond to the fabulous feedback from the listening community. Thank you, listener. That's a proverbial wrap for Season 2!

In the penultimate episode of Season 2, The Big Mouse and Professor T share their own cautionary tales of mentorship gone horribly wrong. From misguided professional guidance, to brotherly-figures living dangerously, to academic mentors who seemed more interested in their own research than their students' success, they reveal how their own experiences as mentees turned into unforgettable disasters. Get ready for a rollercoaster of misadventures, as The Big Mouse and Professor T offer laughs, lessons, and the hard truths they learned the hard way.

Based on listener suggestions, we discuss St Paddy's Day, Play, Seasons and other topical claptrap! Thank you, listener - this made us "giddy" (in-joke that you will only get if you listen to the proverbial episode).

This week, The Big Mouse and Professor T discuss the theme of the popular television show "Severance", where one's workplace memories are separated from one's primary, external memories. Your hosts apply this concept to their own professional and personal lives and examine how the balance has shifted over the tears.   For people who haven't watched Severance, there are no spoilers here that you wouldn't find in a couple of sentences online that explain the show.

Prof T helps the Big Mouse get over his (overly) negative narrative of his heavy drinking days - by leading an exploration of the good times we had whilst drinking! We also reflect on our personal journeys with drinking and where we are today with it. Absolutely!

On this episode, The Big Mouse and Professor T pick up where they left off with Boyzone at the height of their success. Cracks, however, were starting to form within the structure of the band, and their greatest collective tragedy was about to befall them.    We also reflect on The Goose Model™, which we employed on our previous podcast, The Feckin' Checkin', as a means to grow in popularity. Will The Goose Model™ make a return in 2025? That remains to be seen.

In this episode, The Big Mouse and Professor T address quite a bit of listener feedback on the "Tipping" episode, then delve into this weeks topic: the recently-released and much spoken-about Boyzone documentary, No Matter What. We discuss the early parts of the band's career, with a particular focus on the role of manager Louis Walsh, and his ruthless approach to the music business.

We discuss the extreme awkwardness of tipping for services in a mostly cashless society, citing various personal examples from the Big Mouse and Prof T!

The Big Mouse and Professor T dial back the years to 1990, as they present their real origin story. 

Join us for a chat about the fake origin stories behind EMDR Therapy, Volkswagen, & Nike. We also chat briefly about the non-fake origins of Feckology and reflect on recent listener interactions. Absolutely!

On this week's Feckology, The Big Mouse and Professor T address some listener feedback, then delve into the topic of people who walk around in public places while looking at their phones. As a semi-regular jogger, The Big Mouse finds this practice quite irritating, and feel the offenders act like NPCs from Grand Theft Auto. As an offender himself, Professor T examines why he is the way he is. Join in the chat on Twitter @feckology 

Join the proverbial Big Mouse and Professor T for an analysis of the declining quality of Netflix, and the accompanying rise of the Typical Netflix Movie. All based on the below excellent article by @wtavlin https://www.nplusonemag.com/issue-49/essays/casual-viewing/  Let us know what you think, dear listener. Are you content with Netflix's substandard content? 

Does travel narrow the mind? Do you always take yourself with you on holidays? Wherever you go, there we are. Professor T and The Big Mouse discuss "The Case Against Travel". https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-weekend-essay/the-case-against-travel

Join the Big Mouse and Prof T for an analysis of two popular love songs - from the perspective of the creeped-out recipient of the lyrics.

Traynor, now reverting to his previous persona of "Professor T" (we'll have to change the theme song), and The Big Mouse, return for Season 2 of Feckology. Discussing new year's resolutions, losing the ability to read books, lacking enthusiasm for podcasting, different types of creative fulfilment, and Gen Z phrases. This one is as loose and rusty as you might expect after a long hiatus!

Sorry Listener, we could not do an episode as intended due to Life - Again. Instead, please enjoy this new song by the Big Mouse using an AI created beat. See you soon!
