This aftershow turns from bizarre to deeply emotional in minutes — starting with Justin’s wild story about a man who spent 40 years secretly digging underground temples because a vision told him to. Police walked in ready to arrest him… and instead ended up crying in front of a glowing mural. Justin even describes being choked by the “spirit of the future” the night COVID hit.
But quickly, the conversation shifts into one of the most raw and honest discussions the NSCB crew have ever had.

Colm opens up about the shock, numbness and early days after losing his wife — and why therapy hasn’t felt possible yet. Justin challenges him gently, digging into what healing actually requires. Rebecca mediates with compassion and clarity.

From there, the aftershow dives into:
✔️ The “tin-can theory” — how unresolved trauma drags behind us until we finally stop and face it
✔️ Whether therapy really works or just circles around the same pain
✔️ Parenting and the myth of the “perfect childhood”
✔️ Why every family has something — no matter how good they look from the outside
✔️ How to raise resilient kids without crushing them
✔️ Rebecca’s powerful story of her daughter’s confidence breakthrough
✔️ Colm’s school-talk message about bravery and emotional language

It’s emotional, vulnerable, hilarious, chaotic and beautifully human — everything that makes Not So Christian Brothers what it is.
