Nilpod-Episode 51 |
Fallen Idols - Although not thinking of ourselves as idols we are reconciled with the idea that we will, one day, have a gradual slide from grace rather than a fall. More Phil Collins than Spector. Lets hope this is not the top of that slope.
|
 |
Nilpod - Episode 50 |
Growing Older - Due to our advancing journey toward the grave we get on subject in record time. Dave joins us to complete a hat-trick of appearances. Boobs, Botox, Ear Hair and Cheese. The mind really does drift the older we get. Nilpod remembers when all of this was fields. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 49 |
Superheroes. ZAP. POW. WHAP. DOINK. EXPLODE! The Dynamic Duo foil the baddies once again with their powerful waffle. When they take their glasses off powerful forces are not unleashed. About as fast as a bullet being thrown. Up. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 48 |
Would you rather - Hummus or Pizza? Vampire or Werewolf? Aliens or Lions? We tackle the big issues. And apparently there's a recession on. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 47 |
E to F - From Eggs to Extinction and from Freckles to Flight Volume 3 of the Encyclopedia Nilpodica is uncomfortably full after Christmas. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 46 |
Christmas. Ho Ho Ho. Bah Humbug. Delete as appropriate. In a Nilpod jam packed with festive cheer we talk about Jesus, his cousin Santa and the terrors of other Santas. Gifts abound. No Myrrh, but we both stink of Frankincense. Happy Christmas. |
 |

 |
Nilpod - Episode 45 |
The Internet - We're back. After an unfortunate postponement, we're joined by Adam Maguire, curator of the excellent technology site www.teic.ie to discuss all things interweb. From lolcatz to ego surfing, this one runs the gamut. Thanks for waiting! |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 44 |
Habits. We've lined everything up neatly and we're definitely wearing
our own underpants. Now, lets pick away at everything from farting to gaming,
smoking to space staring. And nuns. Scary nuns. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 43 |
What if...? From Man Babies to the Zombie Apocalypse, all bases are
covered. Eyes swapped with mouths, Black Midgets, Sentient Computers and the
little men inside us all. Hypothesize! |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 42 |
Space - The Final Frontier. Boldly going where no Nilpod has gone
before we contemplate the Galaxy. Probings, Aliens, Zero Gravity and which one of us would take a giant leap for mankind. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 41 |
Health - Back to the wiffle, after last weeks jam packed informofest.
We prescribe a healthy dose of nilpod, taken aurally. May cause drowsiness and no little nausea. Do not operate any heavy machinery. Ever again. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 40 |
Politics - Dave returns! Like any good politician making all kinds of
promises. Flesh was pressed. We've been gladhanded. In the longest Nilpod yet we
cover all the bases. Manifestos! Poverty! Blame! Facial Hair!
VOTE NILPOD. VOTE OFTEN. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 39 |
Halloween - Sorely delayed this week but we're back to help the
Halloween party. Inappropriate costumes, the liberation of a 6 foot strawberry,
door etiquette and monkey nuts. So many monkey nuts. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 38 |
Money - Let's get Fiscal! Once again our lack of knowledge in an area
has not been reason enough for us to avoid it. Pocket Money, Communion stashes,
the joy of saving and blowing it all on Groom. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 37 |
Privacy - Perhaps a little late in the day, Nilpod turns to a subject
that conflicts with the character of the show. Do we have any secrets any more? Googling, toilet matters and the stalking of Wil. Now brought to you with eight eyes. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 36 |
Religion Part 2 - We really love God here on Nilpod so use our second foray into his World to question his teachings. Testicle rulings, Jesus and his Asbo and how we'd rebrand the church. We are so getting smitten. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 35 |
The Truth about the Irish - Taking on a subject too big to fit, we do our best to cram as many Shenanigans as possible into this soul searching programme. How we're perceived abroad, our gratitude to busdrivers and just how un-Irish the two of us can be. To be sure, Ho HO! |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 34 |
Agony Uncles - Wil and Nicky test their mettle (and your patience)
with solutions to all of your problems. Fort building, relationships, work, nudity and what to do with left over hair.
(Also, Wil is right. I made a mistake about an author.) |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 33 |
C to D - From Cake to Death and all that fits between them we continue
with the Encyclopedia Nilpodia. The plight of the cow, the lure of cosmetic surgery, diaries and children who chase. This one is jam packed. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 32 |
Great Expectations. Both Wil & Nicky had some for today but were
perhaps a little overly confident. In one of the sleepiest Nilpods yet, Wil looks out for his siblings while Nicky sings to his, we read of hopes dashed and discuss whether we'd go visit an old woman. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 31 |
The Pursuit Of Happiness - This week Nilpod bring you their very own
Ode To Joy. We learn how marriage can be an early death sentence for one of the
sexes (although a solution is also offered), Nicky ponders gravity, we consider The
Little Book Of Nilpod, and we both exude an air of contentment by the end. No cigarettes were smoked afterwards though. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 30 |
Secondary School - Coghlan? Anseo! Mcdermott? Anseo! The Perils of the
School disco, teacher foibles and could we pass the Leaving were we to do it
today? I'd give todays show a C1. Honours, but just about. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 29 |
A to B - From Aardvarks to Baloobas the Encyclopedia Nilpodia is flung open. We're droppin' knowledge bombs in your laps and they will go off, so maybe you should stop, drop and roll. Or eat them quickly. Quickly! |

reversing time and Nicky gets attacked by a Socialite. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 27 |
The Sea The Sea - Avast Ye landlubbers! We take pirate radio to its logical extremes and answer all questions nautical. Scraping the bottom of Davy Jones Locker for you scurvy dogs we discuss mermaid permutations, the terror of sharks and how we'd cope stranded on a desert island. Arr! |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 26 |
The Idiot. Or IQs, Id and the super ego. (Wils is superest) From the
ineffable allure of wet paint on a wall to the stupidmaking of fan worship we plumb the depths of the idiothole and pull out some prize eejits. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 25 |
Sense and Sensibility. We made it to the Quarter century! This week we
debate how sensible we are to be doing such a confessional podcast at all. Plus sensitive types, which sense we'd sacrifice, and Nicky picks a fight with the
Gallaghers. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 24 |
Crime & Punishment. All societies ills are solved in this podcast.
Blue face or jail, intoxicating a fish, inciting a dog to bark and other topics

 |
Nilpod - Episode 23 |
Nilpod 23 - Hygiene. We make a big stink about stink, from our lofty positions of

The Road. This week welcomes an interesting sociological departure;
Travelling to each others roads. Literally,and figuratively too. Stalking the
Lowrahaun, sitting in the boot, pulling our ears and pegging our social
classifications. How's Wil's driving? Pretty cautious really. But smooth... |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 20b |
Nilpod 20b - Sports Part 2. After a stern team talk over the halftime oranges we're back to play the second half, and this time we gave it 110%.

 |
Nilpod - Episode 20 |
Sports. Goal! This is a Nilpod of two halves. Welcoming our first

ruin one.) |

 |
Nilpod - Episode 18
|
Sacred Cows - From the People's Princess to the Eurovision, Nicky and Wil untangle the mess of hurt pride and irate defensiveness that Sacred cows inspire. Wil vears dangerously close to alienating all of our listeners with holiday bragging.Nilpod in no way endorses his views. |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 17 |
Lies - Porkies. Though vegetarian, Nicky admits to telling some and Wil aint no
slouch either. White lies, the guilt, the triumphs and just how good we are at reading deceit.
(Wil=very good. Nicky=not so much.) |
 |
Nilpod - Episode 16 |
Madness - If you hear voices in your head other than ours, then this is the nilpod
