   From Texas to Tarmacking: Breaking Bread in Ballymena and Searching for Sausage in Sligo

   From Texas to Tarmacking. From sourdough to Sligo. It’s Istanbullocks. You’ve been warned Ray’s lost in a fairy ring somewhere west of Galway, Morgan Freeman’s reads a tennis poem ''Balls'' and segues into Sue Barker fantasies, while Liam Neeson is pitching Breaking Bread — a Ballymena crime drama about a sick chemistry teacher who illegally peddles gluten-free soda farls - any similarities with Breaking Bad are purely coincidental. Aye right! Jorma holds the fort in Crete with tales of Greek bureaucracy, how his singing could lead to a Welsh Bafta, and an Irish DJ argues with a Jack Russell about WB Yeats. Plus music from Gorilla Radio and a restraining order from a woman in Ballina, who's been the victim of lingerie theft. #ComedyPodcast #IrishComedy #Britishcomedy #Comedypodcast #SurrealHumour #LiamNeeson #MorganFreeman #SueBarker #Wimbledon2025 #BreakingBadSpoof #LibertyHillTexas #PodcastRecommendations #IndiePodcast Hosted on Acast.
