| 9/4/26 | "Foreign Born People Deserve Social Housing As Much As Those Born Here" | Reform UK say social housing should go to British-born workers first — and foreign nationals should be pushed down the list. So Adrian and Jeremy ask: should Ireland copy it? Should being Irish-born matter more than citizenship, tax paid, or years spent here? The calls are messy, heated and brutally honest. From “House the Irish First” and claims the system is being manipulated… to the Croatian/Polish examples of people who’ve worked here their whole lives and could still be treated as “blow-ins”. Is it common sense prioritising locals… or discrimination dressed up as housing policy? | — | ||||||
| 9/3/26 | Jaws Drop When Father Admits He Lets 6 Year Old Use Fireworks | Kids as young as 10 in Ballymun allegedly killed a bird with a firework — and a Dublin councillor is calling for a major clampdown on illegal fireworks.Adrian and Jeremy ask the big question: do we need tougher enforcement and more seizures… or should fireworks be legal here so responsible adults don’t have to “go up north” to buy them?Is this about banning fireworks… or banning scumbag behaviour? | — | ||||||
| 9/2/26 | Dublin Woman Says Ireland Is No Longer Safe for Women Because of Immigration | Do women feel safe in Ireland anymore? Regular listener Ciara joins Adrian and Jeremy after a string of incidents that have left her terrified — from a taxi driver changing the route mid-journey, to harassment on the street and on the beach.But the conversation quickly turns explosive when she says her bad experiences have involved foreign men, and she’s now wary of getting into taxis at all.Is she speaking from trauma and instinct… or is it racism, as one furious caller argues?With live callers split down the middle, the debate hits immigration, taxi regulation, “freedom of speech”, and why men and women experience fear so differently. | — | ||||||
| 9/1/26 | EXCLUSIVE - We Talk To Man Who Was Falsely Accused of "Gun Running Outside Tallaght Mosque" | “Citizen journalists” — are they exposing the truth… or doing serious damage?Adrian and Jeremy call out a viral clip shared by Daz News claiming “guns” were being taken from a boot outside a mosque in Tallaght. Problem is: it wasn’t a mosque, and they weren’t real guns.Hamza, the Dublin businessman in the video, joins the show to explain they were airsoft rifles on private property — and says the misinformation has put his family, staff and businesses at risk.With live callers divided, the debate turns to verification, defamation, anti-Muslim hysteria, and whether social media pages should be held to the same standards as mainstream media. | — | ||||||
| 8/31/26 | "My Two Kids Were Out of Control Teenagers...But There Was Nothing I Could Do" | Up to 1,000 children in Ireland have been flagged as “prolific offenders” — so what do we do with the parents? After the M9 tragedy, a Fianna Fáil TD says mums and dads should be fined for their teenagers’ crimes, with money taken straight from wages or the dole. Jeremy says it’s the only way to force responsibility. Adrian says it’s pointless — punish the offenders, not the parents, because some families are already begging Tusla and the system for help. With raw calls from Jackie, Mick, Grace and Joanne, the chat spirals into house arrest, boot camps, and even vigilante “punishment beatings”. Where do you draw the line? | — | ||||||
| 8/29/26 | Opinions Matter EXTRA – Get it Off Your Chest - Ep. 79 | It’s the weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” episode… which means Adrian and Jeremy (and Katie) go completely off the rails in the best way.Jeremy gets a free family brunch in Barry & Brown thanks to a mystery benefactor, and the lads immediately turn it into a full-on hunt.Then it’s war: King Crisps vs Tayto vs Manhattan cheese & onion, and whether a sausage is “just a sausage” (spoiler: Jeremy says yes and gets slaughtered).And Katie joins to admit she’s basically flirting with ChatGPT… and also reveals what gives her “the fear” — and the ultimate ick: mismatching underwear. | — | ||||||
| 8/28/26 | Listeners Speechless When Mum Reveals Her Son Eats McDonalds 6 Times a Week | Rachael is at her absolute wit’s end: her 8-year-old is such a fussy eater he’ll only eat McDonald’s chicken nuggets and chips (and a bit of toast) — and she’s getting torn apart for it, online and even by her neighbours.Adrian and Jeremy ask the big question: if your child literally won’t eat, what are you supposed to do… let them starve, or feed them what they’ll actually swallow?Live callers go to war over “lazy parenting” vs sensory issues, autism/ARFID, “McDonald’s is poison”, and whether “hunger is the best sauce” is real life or just something people say when they’ve no kids. | — | ||||||
| 8/27/26 | "I'm Not Easy - I Just Like Sex"...Woman Shocks Listeners On First Dates Admission | Caroline (not her real name) says she’s sick of the judgement: four first dates in five months… and she slept with all four lads. She’s single, she likes sex, and she reckons it can build intimacy — so why is everyone calling her “easy” and claiming she’s wrecking her chances of a proper relationship? Adrian and Katie go to war over “self-respect”, double standards, and whether having sex on the first date instantly makes you “not girlfriend material”. With callers and messages ranging from fair, measured takes to absolutely brutal slut-shaming, plus a fiery row about misogyny, Andrew Tate vibes, and why Ireland still can’t talk about sex normally. | — | ||||||
| 8/26/26 | Caller Blasts Parents For Labelling Their Kids with ADHD | Channel 4 aired a documentary called The Great ADHD Myth… and it’s sparked absolute outrage, with charities accusing it of being biased and basically implying ADHD isn’t even real. Adrian and Jeremy dig into the claims: is ADHD a real neurodevelopmental disorder, or are we slapping labels on normal childhood behaviour because kids are glued to screens, eating shite and living a totally different life than 50 years ago? With live callers sharing raw, personal stories — parents battling schools, adults diagnosed years ago, and a massive row over medication, “zombie” kids, self-diagnosis, and whether ADHD is actually overdiagnosed. | — | ||||||
| 8/25/26 | Mother of Dublin Joyrider Tells Us: "TIKTOK is to Blame...it's Ruined His Life" | Five young men dead after a stolen car crash on the M9… and suddenly everyone’s asking the same question: is TikTok helping fuel “joyriding” for likes, fame and that dopamine rush? Adrian and Jeremy go head-to-head over whether social media platforms are simply hosting content… or are they complicit, enabling dangerous behaviour by letting these videos stay up. With live callers sharing everything from a car being recovered thanks to TikTok and Snapchat, to a former Facebook content moderator lifting the lid on what actually gets taken down. And then a message that stops the show: a mum admits her 18-year-old son is still out in stolen cars… and she blames TikTok. | — | ||||||

| 8/24/26 | War On Air When Dublin Mum Admits How She Disciplines Her Child | Was banning smacking in Ireland a massive mistake… or a sign we finally grew up as a society? Michael kicks off a full-on row by claiming “since they got rid of slapping kids, society has gone down the toilet” and that today’s teens have zero respect because there’s no fear anymore. From parents saying “a slap put manners on me” to others calling it straight-up abuse, Adrian and Jeremy get dragged into a chaotic, shouting match with callers Lisa, Natasha, Joanne, Chloe and more. | — | ||||||
| 8/22/26 | Opinions Matter EXTRA – Get it Off Your Chest - Ep. 78 | It’s the weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” episode… which basically means Adrian and Jeremy sitting in the studio talking the greatest load of shite before the proper show kicks off. From the random discovery that you can’t get a beef burger in McDonald’s India, to the age-old question of what you call two grannies (and why “nana” is apparently controversial), the lads bounce from topic to topic at warp speed. Plus: a full-blown row over blowing your nose into a cloth napkin in a restaurant, the weirdest place people listen to the podcast… and Jeremy’s confession that he brushed his teeth with hair removal cream while half asleep. | — | ||||||
| 8/21/26 | "My Husband Wouldn't Accept Our Trans Child... So I Left Him" | "My son was born male and is now transitioning to female... My husband won't accept it so i no longer want him around".... On this episode of Opinions Matter, we hear from a mother who has accepted her trans child... but her husband won't | — | ||||||
| 8/20/26 | *EXCLUSIVE* Mum Of M50 Crash Victim Speaks Out About "Lucky Dip" Joyriders | After the M9 “joyriding” tragedy, a Cork politician says anyone caught driving the wrong way up a motorway should face attempted murder charges. Caller Francis (who lost her daughter on the the M50 in an horrific crash) came on air and gave a powerful statment on the "Lucky Dip" joyriding gang | — | ||||||
| 8/19/26 | Callers Furious Over "Ignorant Pig" Who Slammed Online Grieving | Are TikTok tributes and AI “angel wings” a sincere way to grieve… or pure cringe and attention-seeking?Adrian and Jeremy dig into the big question: can you judge how someone mourns, especially when the person who died never consented to be “plastered” online?Callers go hard on both sides. Dave explains why his Facebook is a memorial to his late partner. Trevor says grief should stay private and tells how a graveside moment was filmed and posted without permission. Others argue those posts keep memories alive, while some draw the line at coffin photos and over-the-top edits. | — | ||||||
| 8/18/26 | "People Are Only Hating on 'TikTok Joyriders' Because Some Are Travellers" | This episode is a follow-on to our most listened-to show ever, as Adrian and Jeremy tackle the fallout from the M9 “joyriding” tragedy — and the argument that the online anger is “only because some were travellers”.After a listener sends in a Facebook post claiming the hate is racist, we ask: is this just deflection from what actually happened, or is anti-Traveller abuse genuinely adding fuel to the fire?With calls from Hughie Maughan, Joanne and Chloe (and plenty of rows), we debate sympathy, accountability, TikTok culture, and why the real focus should stay on the innocent family still in hospital. | — | ||||||
| 8/17/26 | **EXCLUSIVE** Woman Tells Us She Knew Lads Involved in Joyriding Motorway Massacre | A heartbreaking tragedy on the M9 sparks one of the most explosive debates we’ve had in a long time. Five teenagers are dead after a car was driven the wrong way up the motorway — and an innocent family on their way to Dublin Airport is still in serious condition in hospital.But the real row kicks off online: people should “have a heart” because they were still children with grieving families… or is it fair game to feel zero sympathy because of what they were doing?Callers go hard on parents, TikTok “joyriding” culture, Garda intervention, early warning signs, and the sickening comments flooding social media. | — | ||||||
| 8/15/26 | Opinions Matter EXTRA – Get it Off Your Chest - Ep. 77 | It’s the special weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” episode — the most random hour of Opinions Matter, where Adrian and Jeremy ditch the serious topics and just ramble.Jeremy returns from holidays with a confession: one of his kids ended up joyriding the baggage carousel in Dublin Airport… and the whole place had to be stopped.Then it’s onto time zones (Jeremy can’t cope with the fact it’s “tomorrow” in Australia), being judged online for drinking a pina colada served in an actual pineapple, and the eternal question: is it “manly” for men to drink cocktails?Plus: Sicilian cannoli, posh Dunnes vs Finglas Dunnes, and a shout-out to the legendary Bernie Beirne??? | — | ||||||
| 8/14/26 | Caller Claims Joyriders Are A Result of "Fatherless Families From Council Estates" | Shocking new footage of joyriders driving against the flow of traffic on the M50 has Adrian and Jeremy asking the question: should Gardaí even be giving chase when a stolen car takes off?With TikTok packed with “yup bros” filming themselves, live-streaming the madness, and soaking up the “legends” comments, callers debate whether pursuits only add to the buzz — and the danger. Others say Gardaí have no choice, and need spikes, road closures, helicopters, and a dedicated motorway task force. | — | ||||||
| 8/13/26 | Judge Nolan Locked Me Up For 2 Years On A Drugs Charge.. Even Though I Was Pregnant | A posh southside mum gets a one-year sentence for a vicious, unprovoked hotel assault… and she’s back out the door after just four weeks. So Adrian and Jeremy ask the question nobody wants to answer: should mothers with young kids ever be jailed at all?The row kicks off over Alison Chawke’s early release with TD Gary Gannon saying prison isn’t the place for women with children, and whether “low risk of reoffending” is a cop-out.Callers go hard on two-tier justice, overcrowded prisons, tagging, and the victims left living with the long-term effects — while one former inmate mum gives a brutally honest view from the inside. | — | ||||||
| 8/12/26 | Relative Of Teen Gang Member Involved in M50 Crash Says "They're Victims Too" | After the shocking M50 crash involving a suspected stolen car, Adrian and Jeremy tackle the question everyone’s arguing about: should juvenile offenders be named and shamed? A furious listener says if you’re “big and bold enough” to commit a crime, you’re big and bold enough to have your name in the papers — especially in cases like the Anna Kriegel murder, where Boy A and Boy B still can’t be identified. Callers clash over deterrence versus protection: do kids deserve anonymity to change their lives, or is it just another free pass? Plus, the row turns personal when a message claims to know one of the teens involved. | — | ||||||
| 8/11/26 | "Sulky Owners Don't Give a Shit About Their Animals. Ban Them!" | A petition backed by the NSPCA has racked up nearly 20,000 signatures calling on the Ministers for Transport and Agriculture to keep sulky horses off Irish public roads — not just racing, but any sulky activity at all. Adrian and Jeremy go head-to-head on whether horses and traps have any place in modern traffic, with Jeremy calling it outdated and dangerous, and Adrian arguing councils should provide proper tracks to get the racing off the roads. Callers weigh in on animal welfare, kids driving sulkies, horrific crashes, and the “culture and tradition” defence — with plenty of rows along the way. | — | ||||||
| 8/10/26 | Black Irish Woman Gets Trolled By Racists After She Appears In Advert | A listener called Killian gets in touch after his friend — a Dublin-born black Irish model — appears in an ad for a well-known Irish company… and the trolling that followed is absolutely vile. Adrian and Jeremy ask the question straight: why do some people get so triggered by a black person representing an Irish brand? Is it just plain racism, or is it being dressed up as “DEI” and “not representative”? | — | ||||||
| 8/8/26 | Opinions Matter EXTRA – Get it Off Your Chest - Ep. 76 | It’s the weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” episode, and Adrian and Katie are in full chaos mode from the White Sands Hotel in Portmarnock.It kicks off with Adrian arriving in like a hero with two 99s… only to discover Katie can’t stand ice cream. From there it turns into a full-on listener pile-on: curry haters, coffee haters, trifle slander, ghetto food rows, and all the weird stuff everyone else loves but you can’t.Then Angry Darren “boils my piss” over roundabouts, Katie admits to bus-lane behaviour, and the pair swap the biggest lies they’ve ever told… including a Garda escort to Fitzgibbon Street. | — | ||||||
| 8/7/26 | "I was Involved In Punch Up On Tenerife Flight.. But I'm Not To Blame"! | Michael O’Leary regularly calls for a two-drink limit in airports to tackle the rise in drunken disorder on flights. Adrian says it’s terrifying being trapped in the air with aggressive passengers… while Jeremy reckons if you “need” a few pints before boarding, you’ve got a problem.Then Terry rings in and detonates the whole debate: he says his holiday starts in the airport, he can put away 7 or 8 pints before take-off… and he even admits he threw punches mid-flight after a disgusting comment about his missus.Is a drink limit common sense, or punishment for normal people because of a few eejits? | — | ||||||
