Bedroom Antics & The Coming Recession: Why You Need Cash NOW
Manscaping mishaps, Colm’s survivor guilt, and Justin’s grim warning for white-collar workers.
This week on the Not So Christian Brothers Aftershow, the conversation goes from the bedroom to the bank in record time.
We kick things off with the "sexy stuff" as Rebecca asks the lads about manscaping and the realities of keeping the spark alive in long-term marriages. We also roast Justin’s confusing "Capitalist Mountain Man" fashion sense—is he a stockbroker or is he hiking the Wicklow Way?.
Things get raw as Colm opens up about the "survivor’s guilt" of grief and the stark difference between a partner travelling and the permanence of turning off the light in an empty room.
Then, Justin drops a bombshell. He warns that we are 16 years into a cycle that usually ends in 10, predicting a recession that could hit real people by late summer next year. He explains why white-collar workers and graduates are in the firing line this time, why AI is about to replace professional services, and why he believes the "Singularity" has already happened.
Plus, why Terry and Rebecca are quitting the podcast to become plumbers called "Farrah Faucet".
