Before the days of Grindr, The Gay Cork Classifieds was where the young queer people of Cork tried to arrange discreet meets with other likeminded folk and Kevin details a drunken experience he had with a fella from Tralee. The theme for the week is gastronationalism which is the use of food and its history as a means of promoting national identity and basically it was picked for the theme because, you guessed it, PJ saw a TikTok about it and wanted to know more. They talk through all the different culinary delights of different countries but Kevin reveals he has no desire to visit Italy because a lad in primary school was going on about boiling eggs in the sand and he has also met a load of rude Italians (but has never had any issues with the French).

Kevin is back in Cork and had a beach day with his niece who he still won't reveal the name of but shares some of the nicknames he has for her including, but not limited to, missy, dolly and baba. The lads speak about the chaos that was The Biggest Loser and Kevin reveals why he had a fear of soy sauce. The Olympics is happening in Paris and though the lads are obsessed with the Mary J Blige knockoff logo with the cunty bob, they feel conflicted about watching the games due to Israel's participation and so explore the dark side of the Olympics and the controversy that has plagues the event since it's inception. Who needs to watch the Olympics anyway when you can watch Tess do her nastics routine in the kitchen.

The lads have just finished their last show of the UK tour and they are absolutely hanging out their hoops but the vibes are still immaculate and they are finding everything funny. This week they read out scam submissions and the girlies do not disappoint. Kevin also recollects an encounter with a girl from dance college who was a bit tapped and had an awful habit of stealing things and blaming it on someone else whenever she got nabbed.

The lads start off with a special shoutout to those who are into findom as they reckon they'd be raging if they were into it. Kevin also shares details of an absolute ordeal he had at the library that made him wish printers were no longer in existence. The theme for the week is scams and the boys take a look into some of the high profile hustles that have taken place in recent years like Fyre Festival and Anna Delvey. They also talk about things that aren't exactly scams but feel like a scam like Zara sizing and hotel check-out times.

PJ has flown to England for their show in London so of course he has a stressful airport story to tell. Meanwhile Kevin has been brushing shoulders with celebs but is mortified at the fact that he was roaring Charli XCX’s name at the top of his lungs in the thickest Cork accent ever when he was standing right in front of her during her DJ set. The lads take a look at Irish mythology and revisit all the old magical tales we were told in our school days like The Children of Lir, Tír na nÓg and The Salmon of Knowledge. Their retelling of some of the stories is definitely questionable but luckily they have Sadhbh’s notes to hand to clear up any grey areas such as whether Cú Chulainn was into pup play.

Kevin is on an absolute rager for two reasons; he was gaslit by his taxi driver and had his coffee confiscated from him after only two sips and his landlord is after putting up the rent again. The theme for the week is the class system and the boys discuss Ireland having less rigid class structures than the UK, how primary school lunches were a good indicator of a students economic background and how they wish the Celtic Tiger, the most glam pussy to ever enter Ireland, would make a comeback.

The lads talk about the joy of having no plans at the weekend but then discuss the absolute trauma of thinking you're the loneliest person in the world when it comes to the weekend and you do nothing. PJ shares his story about his chaotic trip to the post office to send his wedding invites which Kevin thinks look like notes kids used to pass to each other in school. The theme for the week is etiquette and of course, Kevin is loving life because he's weak for all things etiquette and of course PJ is allergic. They talk about etiquette in different countries and how they think that despite England priding themselves on their manners, everyone there is pure rude.
