We Got Another Legal Threat… Are We About to Be Shut Down?

The Christian Brothers have officially come for the podcast again — and this time, they’ve issued a full legal warning. In today’s episode, the NSCB crew dive into the new solicitor’s letter, the history of being sued over podcast names, why they might have been targeted again, and how the lads feel about it all.

The episode begins with absolute chaos: Colm reveals — on mic, with zero warning — that the podcast has received a brand-new legal letter from the Irish Christian Brothers. Yes… again. The team read through the solicitor’s message, which threatens legal action if they don’t respond within 14 days. And immediately, the debate erupts:

– Why are they being targeted?

– Why Colm’s the one they always find?

– And what does this mean for the podcast’s name (for the second time in their history)?

As the crew unpack the bizarre déjà vu of being sued for their podcast identity, they veer into the complicated history of the Christian Brothers at their own school — a mix of humour, trauma, absurdity and gallows comedy that only NSCB can pull off.

From there, Rebecca drags the show back to sanity (briefly), before the team launch into the week’s biggest news story: Troy Parrott’s unbelievable comeback and the headlines that followed (“The Late Troy Show”). They break down his journey, the pressure he’s faced, the resilience it took, and why Ireland is buzzing again.

The conversation then spirals beautifully into:

– therapy (and why some avoid it),

– intrusive thoughts,

– controlling emotions,

– political leaders with “a screw loose,”

– how childhood shapes adulthood,

– and the importance of digging deep rather than avoiding the hard stuff.

It’s funny. It’s raw. It’s fast-moving. It’s NSCB at their best.

And yes — they promise to keep listeners updated if they get sued. Again!!
