Stall It with Darren and Joe

The lads are feeling a little out of place this week in their new studio and Joe soon storms out over the building rules about his (inappropriate) parking of his (surprisingly large) scooter.    Joe asks what would be the one big thing that would give away that you're not Irish, and gives a fiery defence of why he can't get the bus or train when floods block his route to work.   The...

Scootergate rumbles on into the bonus as much like said scooter, Joe cannot park this outrageous injustice. Even poor Imelda May gets dragged into it. A question of who they could handle being stuck in a lift with causes further ructions and they get to plot their escape in a Dublin version of The Running Man.

The lads are in mad mystical form this week as Joe has introduced Darren to the power of crystals and he's already seeing the benefits. Ed is not convinced. Darren describes a mind bending experience with Keith Barry which allows Joe to showcase his own brain hacking skills. They also get to reignite an ancient fued with Ryan Tubridy. And don’t forget to join us for our live show at Vicar Street o...

A listener/teacher has been kind enough to send in the lads a fully formed quiz at a 4th class levbel to see how the boys get on with it. We'll let you decide. They also get a definitive answer on the 'cinema door' conundrum and they get to discuss was it worth it for Judas to rat out his pal.

It's awards season and the lads are off to the Oscars AGAIN (in their heads) and they debate who to bring, who to burn in the speech and wetting themselves on the red carpet. Benjamin Franklin makes his fist appearance on the pod and they discuss how shite kite flying is and their ability to survive a bow and arrow attack. With Grok in the news we get to enjoy what image Joe would rustle up of Dar...

Some excellent listener questions this week for the lads to chew on...literally as they get to discuss the sounds that drive them up the walls. Things take a spiritual turn as a listener asks if they could cut it as a priest and needless to say Joe thinks it would be a walk in the park (or at least the church grounds). And the great Scatman John gets his rightful dues. Send all of your questions a...

Eoin is back in the house to try and put manners on the lads with middling success it must be said. He's noticed a change in Darren's attire recently and Joe's recent rants get the boss's assessment. Inspired by a very questionable 1970's social experiment, a thought experiment ensues and we get to hear what they'd do to drive eachother pure mad. Things get a bit Shakespearean when Joe gets outrag...

It may be a new year but don't think the listener's have forgotten #BEANJUICEGATE as it rears it's controversial head once again. The lads get asked to design mancaves for the stars (we're not sure poor old Brendan O'Connor will be best pleased with his outcome) and they're soon incorporating the legendary Jumbo Breakfast Roll. With Eoin away they get brave and get to see if he does indeed look li...

The boys are BACK for the first chat of 2026 and rundown of how their collective Christmas and New Years went. Joe does his his family dynamic no favours but going in on his mother in law's Christmas dinner offering whilst Darren impresses nobody with his fancy steak and half-zip combo. Joe's entrepreneurial spirit is on point as ever as they discuss setting up a sauna business with added smoking...

The boys are back in pod town and easing themselves into matters with a shared rant about music in pubs and poor ol' Christy Moore catches a few strays in the process. Darren shuts down ANY discussion of his most embarassing moment with Amy and things all a bit Freudian when they get into it about their fever dreams.

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the studio, nothing was stirring apart from Darren and Joe. Ahead of the arrival of the 26 fella, the boys take a whistful look back on some of their more memorable moments of the rolloercoaster that was 2025. From Joe's hottest takes/hardest facts involving Brazilian aliens and the infamous bean juice shout to Darren's stratospheric climb up the gre...

There's QUITE the cast of characters this week's listener fuelled ramblings from Elmo negotiating contracts to the Unabomber being forced to ride shotgun on a road trip across Ireland. Joe gets triggered into another rant about the existence of chicken soup, Darren proclaims his hatred of raisins and they get to 'enjoy' Ed's near psychotic disdain of seagulls. Send all of your questions and commen...

Joe and Darren meet at a Christmas convention but more on that later... This week the boys bemoan the lack of options in Dublin for entertaining the kids and it seems bringing them to a graveyard isn't going to cut it and we're all in agreement that Christmas markets suck. The conversation naturally turns to which A.I assistant would be the soundest to hang out with and Grok comes out very badly....

In a follow-up to last week's unwrapping of the pod's uber listeners we hear some more startling stats from the 1% and the lads just about work out how much of their years are spent listening. A listener question leads to a wholesome discussion of who's pee would be the best to drink should the situation arise and the rancid nature of dog farts gets an airing...so to speak. Send all of your questi...

Darren is a bit under weather, but it can’t hold us back for long. Joe has had a far more serious dose, and tells us how he had to make an emergency exit from a Saw Doctors gig. There is suspicion cast on Joe’s latest tale of woe, and it’s leading to big questions about the truth of his entire back catalogue of curious misfortune. We explore the world of forgotten school lunch sandwiches and hear...

This week the lads hear a cautionary tale from listener who made a mortifying discovery as a child whilst searching for presents in her parents bedroom and the 2nd hand embarrasment leads to some extreme awkwardness in studio. In more comfortable territory, Joe and Darren get to swap their pet people peeves and with the recent release of listener's Spotify Wrapped stats the boys are blown away by...

In big news/a warning to road users Darren reveals the impressive results of his Driver Theory Test and in typical form, he managed to somehow wrangle a free eye test out of it. It's Christmas party season and a glimspe of Pat Kenny in the wild soon descends into imaginary conversations with the great man at the work do and naturally, Christopher Walken presenting the Toy Show. Joe has seen ANOTHE...

As regular listeners will know, our Joe has some pretty wild opinions and there's little more in life he loves more than using his platform to spout them out. Thankfully you lot are on hand to show him the error of his ways but the unthinkable happens this week...it turns out he's RIGHT about something. Yes one kind listenere with even more time on their hands finally settles the 'bean juice is ke...

It's pod award season and whilst the lads came away empty handed, Joe won gongs for 'Most Underdressed' and 'Worst Prepared For The Free Bar' so that's something. Joe's winning streak continues with a spectacular return on a Troy Parrott punt and he also gets to recount one of the great 'knew them before they were 'Ireland's national hero' stories in the process and poor Darren and reveals he was...

Joe's preparing for the worst ahead of a parent teacher meeting and we hear about the creative use of a Frube to get sent home sick from school. A question from a listener has them raiding the infamous RTE canteen for some regulars and in what must be a first for this podcast, Joe shows some humilty and asks for a joke to be bleeped. It doesn't last long though as he gets rumbled causing absolute...

Joe and Darren are on high alert! A certain rival podcast duo are wandering around outside ON THEIR PATCH and the boys are keeping a VERY watchful eye throughout this week's episode. Speaking of keeping an eye out, Darren is parading a new pair of specs and he's delighted with himself. Although he is less delighted by the backhanded compliment Joe tries to pay him as a result. Hollywood heartthrob...

With our regular producer absent this week, Darren puts the reading glasses on and takes over the duties of asking your questions, and he’s enjoying the change of roles. The demands for the live show are coming in, but Joe wants some limitations on the requests, pointing out he can only break one world record per night. And we have one request for listeners to be allowed take the time to raise som...

Darren isn’t happy as he finds out he was left out of an invite only event that both Joe and Eoin attended. And it gets worse, as he finds out about some sneaking off between more friends of his. Overall he’s feeling very left out, but it’s OK because he has a new robot friend to keep him company now. We enter uncharted territory as Darren talks about seduction for the very first time, and Joe pit...

Welcome to the top 100 club, where nothing goes according to plan and apparently corruption is literally on the table. We get a singing introduction to this episode and we talk for the first time about our recently announced live show (Vicar Street, Feb 12th – stall it!). One listener question has us wondering who would be the good cop and who would be the bad cop in a Darren and Joe partnership....

The lads are the victims of police profiling and, at the exact same time, meet a legend of Irish music – and we wonder what would happen if Darren was arrested and taken into custody. We return to Joe's idea he has a chance of attracting Lily Allen - but many remain to be convinced. Joe brings footage of us an Irish UFO sighting, and he’s not buying any debunking. We hear about an encounter with a...
