Mark Mehigan’s Weekly Roast

You people really are animals. Send in reccs here: https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

One of the more interesting conversations I've had. Really grateful to Loïc for this time. Trying to wrap your head around psychopathy is incredibly tough and at times I found myself taking an almost adversarial position without any reason other than my presumptions about what a psychopath thinks... Or something along those lines. Nevertheless, let us know below if you'd like Loïc to come back on...

TICKETS FOR THE ONCE OFF CHRISTMAS SPECIAL WILL BE AVAILABLE HERE: https://www.paviliontheatre.ie/ FRIDAY @ 10 AM. SET THE ALARMS. THIS SHOW WILL NEVER BE REPEATED.

DM me for any info on December 13th. Please set alarms for 10am on Friday. There will be no extra shows added, this is a once off event. I give you my word. The live roast of Mark Mehigan is only happening once and that is a guarantee. Happy Christmas. ALSO - ANY TIPS REGARDING TODAY'S EP? (FORGIVE THE PUN). What do we think?

Probably the most fun we've ever had with a guest. For somebody who takes nutrition very seriously, Sophie is an unbelievably good sport and well able to endure a bit of roasting without taking it to heart. She is an absolute legend. But somehow, doesn't know what a spice bag is! Her new book is available everywhere and part two of her new doc is out next Monday on Rte One at 9:35pm.

That's curtains I think. https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

Aside from possessing the title of mid 90s rag you'd find ignored in your local GP'S waiting room, this shocking story was sent into us by a listener last week. More people are leading double lives in Ireland and dating apps have bizarrely made it easier. Although, I would have thought the opposite tbh? Nevertheless.. let us know if you've encountered similar.

When Destiny Ayo Vaughan was five years old, she narrowly avoided a forced childhood marriage with a men in his twenties, only to be trafficked into Ireland from Nigeria. She was subsequently abused by her own biological mother before being taken into care. Her story is one of bravery in the face of abject cruelty. Destiny has since created Mind The Gap - a platform for SA survivors to support eac...

I feel fairly strongly about this. Interested to know what you all think. Some of the story has had to be removed in order to protect the identity of the caller and of course, the TD. The voice has been RADICALLY altered to avoid any accent detection. Any comments mentioning particular TDs or friends' identities will be sent into the abyss. Comments on the poo, more than welcome. https://www.insta...

This week is genuinely doing more for modern day insanity than those videos of people queueing to get into shopping centres on Black Friday. I can't decide which story is my favourite. Either way, all of the madness is forming a major part of the plans we have for December 13th... Any stories? Any suffering? Any roasts? Any thoughts? Hit me up: https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

Genuinely not for the faint hearted. And we will say no more than that.

From farm to table, meat to mouth. It's the story for the man himself. We are extremely grateful to whoever it was that persuaded him to come on. THANK YOU! I wonder should we try to get them on a date? https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

Nick Dunn was hired to accompany private ships on the most treacherous seas and protect them from Somali pirates. He never intended on becoming one of the the Chennai Six: a group of six men jailed in India for a crime they didn't commit. This episode may be triggering for those suffering with PTSD. I urge you to listen to the whole thing to fathom the enormity of Nick's pain and resilience.

Look, we've all ran into the arms of the nearest suitor to help quench the belly deep sadness and empty yearning for human connection after a break up. But these ones are particularly perverted. Share the show with a friend and don't forget to click follow for free eps every week!

Fancy a butchers? It's the perfect Meat Cute. I genuinely don't even know what to say about this one. Maybe it's a Dublin thing. Maybe it's a non meat for intercourse thing. I don't know... I just think it's totally insane.

Which of the new theme tunes is your favourite? Give us a shout with any interview requests. We've got some very exciting ones lined up for the Autumn... https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

Liam A Brady is Ireland's leading professional private investigator. He's been in business for 51 years. He joined us in the studio yesterday with his wife and business partner, Annette. Two nicer people you could not meet. I have to caveat that some of the themes in this episode are very serious and contain details of predatory behaviour which may be triggering for some listeners. Let me know wha...

The secondhand cringe is real. Not to be confused of course, with the first hand cringe, which is also very real. Today is the day we recall some of your greatest most perverse attempts at locking lips whilst regaling some of our own romantic crash outs too. We are truly grateful to Mystery Mick for his unwavering joy and insouciance on the show. https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

Katriona O'Sullivan is an inspirational powerhouse and the bestselling author of Poor and Hungry. In this interview, we spoke about recovery, ADHD and self-acceptance. Katriona will be joining us in the Roast Office week, so let us know if you have any questions for round two. https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

I wonder should we make this a reoccurring segment where we reunite a listener with a prized possession they lost over the years!? A full episode also may be needed on Road Rage incidents

Mikaila Cruz had just arrived into work in the World Trace Center, New York City on the 11th of September, 2001 when the first plane hit Tower One. She talks us through the details of what she witnessed that day and how she manages to live with the trauma. We are incredibly grateful to her for sharing her story with us.

Tenerife, elevenerife seemed too abstract for an episode title. Stay tuned for the news about December 13th. Give me a shout with any Qs. Really looking forward to it. What a year! https://www.instagram.com/mehiganmark/?hl=en

Rob Lipsett is a Youtuber / Fitness Coach and one of the first Irish creators to make over a million swidgoes from the platform. In this chat we covered lots of ground - con artists in the coaching world, the impact of positive thinking, the theory of cringe until it's successful and many other topics. Let us know who you'd like us to chat to next. Check out Rob's Youtube here: https://www.youtube...

A fascinating insight into the culture and community of swinging in Ireland. Really grateful to 'Maria' for sharing some of her story with us. To be honest, I had never even considered how much of an outlet it must be for people in challenging circumstances. I learnt a lot from our chat. Long live communities that entirely exist to serve and protect their members! Pun unintended, of course. Who wo...

Even rock bottom has a trap door. The things you have all endured at music festivals are quite something. We also welcome the return of the most talked about contributor we've ever had on the show - the woman who had a threesome with her boss and the boss's husband.
