This week’s Not So Christian Brothers Aftershow looks a little different… with Colm away and Terry missing in action, Rebecca and Beatrice take over the mic — with Justin looking on nervously in the corner.
Following Beatrice’s special episode, the Aftershow dives into:
- 20 years of marriage — what really makes it work
- Respect, independence, and why couples don’t need to do everything together
- The “mental load” and how women often carry the invisible weight at home
- Letting go of perfection vs. letting resentment fester
- Why laughter, communication, and even scheduled sex keep a relationship alive
💡 This one blends honesty and humour — from shoes left on the stairs to Hoover wars, household roles, and why communication beats resentment every time.
🎧 Out now on YouTube, Spotify Video, Apple Podcasts & all major platforms.

Highlights
“You’re not the same person you were 20 years ago — respect that evolution.”
“The mental load is like running a corporation — except there’s no shares and no money.”
“I used to get annoyed about the bins and the dishwasher. Now I just let it go.”
“If resentment festers too long, it’s generally over.”
“Laughter and respect keep a marriage alive — not the dishwasher.”
