It's really a searing Vice style documentary. We're like Louis Theroux so it's OK that we were rubbing shoulders with literal fascists at an event sponsored by a racist news site. Oh god! We're Louis Theroux! We're Louis Theroux!

Comedian Mark Moloney on mic today as well. Check out his monthly alternative comedy night Test Tube Babies in Coughlan's, Cork!

NOTE:
None of the Patreon money was spent on this s**te and this month's Patreon money (along with an additional 150 from James because he felt that guilty) is going to be sent to Trans Harm Reduction. https://transharmreduction.org

In the second half over on www.patreon.com/celticligers

Jack Chambers further positions himself to be the Irish Damien Thorn.

Gar and Enda discuss the latest episode of Disney Plus era Doctor Who, "The Legend of Ruby Sunday". The first of a two part series finale where... not that much happens.

The Doctor and Ruby go to UNIT HQ and faff around for a bit before some big reveal.

Before all that they talk about the possible outcome of the middling ratings, Doctor Who spin-offs and the first Russell T Davies attempt to bring the show to America.

No reactionary s**thead takes this week as they've either stopped watching or were too transphobic!

Only on www.patreon.com/celticligers

12/06/2024

Wholistic - Episode 05 - Historians Will Say They Were Just Good Friends

Gar and Enda discuss the latest episode of Disney Plus era Doctor Who, "Rogue" which is Bridgerton with shapeshifting bird people and The Doctor comes out as not just suggestively q***r.

EP034 i don't know what i expected

The Ligers go through the immediate debris of the locals and euros 2024 on the day of the count, then talk about the complete freak Thomas Hand and also some Brit general election stuff as the Labour Right continues to stick the knife in.

THEN over on second half on www.patreon.com/celticligers

They talk about the most unfortunate multiple Spar owner on Earth who keeps getting shoplifted to the tune of a quarter mill (ouch!).

This however pales in comparison to the maddest bit of audio the Ligers have ever listened to (provided by Rob Gale). A new millennial girlo podcast "Can I Just Ask" interviews Barry Cowen about the difference between Fianna Fail and Fine Gael and he could not be more furious to be there. Essential listening.

06/06/2024

EP033 local + euro election spectacular 2024.

The Ligers start off trying to talk about local election 2024 candidates but there are far too many so they just talk about dumbo Nick Delehanty who is dominating the demographic of anti-migrant doggo lovers.

then it's time to go through all of the Euro candidates and stop at the ones they know or the ones who look stupid.

Wholistic - Episode 04 - It's like a metaphor!

The Ligers (incl. Enda) talk about the latest Disney Plus Doctor Who episode, "Dot and Bubble" which is about the kids not looking up from their bloody phones and getting eaten by bloody slug things but after the twist ending you won't feel bad about it at all.

But that's not all! They also talk about Doctor Who in Ireland and listen to the bad reviews from headbangers and then that's all!

Wholistic - Episode 03 - R.I.P Mad James

Gar and Enda discuss "73 Yards".

A classic Doctor Who episode from the Russell T Davies genre of "what if some weird spooky s**t happened?"

They begin by talking about the state of the series at the half way point, the squiggly ratings and haters coming to all sorts of conclusions.

Then they delve in what is probably the best episode of the Disney Plus era so far, in granular detail without James to course correct or make fun of the show.

Finally, they close out on some bad reviews from bad faith idiots. This time they are really bad!

Only on www.patreon.com/celticligers

23/05/2024

20/05/2024

Wholistic - Episode 02 - War is hell (which doesn't exist).

The Ligers (inc. Enda) discuss Steven Moffat's triumphant return to Doctor Who with his latest episode "Boom". After a brief talk about the space EU and The Fugitive Doctor, we break down the quirks and particularities of Moffat's writing which are all on full display in this latest offering. Then we listen to some sicko Youtubers get very upset about a show they haven't watched and do not understand.

Only on www.patreon.com/celticligers

17/05/2024

EP030 We did it!

The Ligers talk about memes for an astoundingly long time. In the middle of that Gar gives a brief history of O'Devaney Gardens. Then they close out the hour talking about a disastrous Eurovision which they crucially did not watch.

The whole hour is taken up talking about a series of talks organised by The Ditch called: "This is the Left" which are to be released in podcast form soon. In particular, they talk about a panel featuring People Before Profit's Paul Murphy, Sinn Féin's Mairéad Farrell and Social Democrats' Gary Gannon. It was really something for the complete sickos!

10/05/2024

EP028 cead míle failure.

The Ligers talk about Star Trek for the last time as James has forbidden it.

The Social Democrats' Israeli candidate (who has since been deselected but only after recording so freaking deal with it),

27/04/2024

EP027 that's very interesting i have to go.

The Ligers talk about their new favourite racist Gar Kelly out of the burgeoning far right headbanger Kontent Kreator Kommunity. Then speaking of that, dumbo shock jock Niall Boylan has entered the European elections so they talked about that too. Also, Eamon Ryan's latest evil gobs**tery which includes going after grannies!

Get your links over on www.celticligers.com

Then in the rest of the episode on Patreon: Some funny stuff and some incredibly tough stuff. Bambie Thug, Tadhg Hickey on Novara Media, the Stardust verdict, the tragic murder of Croatian man Josip Strok. Just depressing. I'm done writing this.
