Forgive, Forget, or F* Off? The Truth About Letting Go
From Olympic doping to divine forgiveness — Colm, Justin, and Rebecca tackle the messy truth behind moral hypocrisy, modern education, and why some wounds never heal.
Can you really forgive and forget?
This week on Not So Christian Brothers, Colm Hayes and Justin Caffrey go head-to-head on forgiveness — from global politics to personal betrayal. Is forgiveness a spiritual superpower or just psychological self-preservation?
Rebecca tries to keep the peace as the lads spiral from Olympic doping scandals to Viagra sponsorships, Panadol hypocrisy, and the dark days of Christian Brothers education. It’s raw, unfiltered, and painfully honest.
💬 Expect heated debates, unexpected wisdom, and the kind of laughter that comes from old wounds and too much truth.

If you’ve ever struggled to forgive someone — or wondered whether forgiveness is overrated — this episode will have you shouting “Amen” and “Absolutely not!” in the same breath.
Colm doesn’t buy the idea that we can truly forgive deep harm, while Justin argues that forgiveness is freedom itself.
From Nelson Mandela to Netanyahu, from classroom trauma to childhood fear, the conversation hits nerves — and nerves hit back.
It’s philosophical, it’s personal, it’s brutally Irish.
This isn’t your Sunday sermon — it’s Not So Christian Brothers.
