Ferg and the Big Mouse return with Season 4, Episode 2 of Feckology to rant about cultural institutions that have lost their proverbial spark. They make a perverse attempt to link declining chocolate and Easter egg quality, with the fading buzz of cinema, fragmented music culture, and sport becoming over-analysed and formulaic. Is this just part of the changing wind? Is it written in the stars? And how should old farts cope with this perverse new world?

The Big Mouse and his co-host (under a new moniker, as is tradition) return with Season 4 of Feckology! On this episode we discuss turning 40, a topic which was touched upon and danced around quite a lot during Season 3.
We examine how we both felt in the lead up to our respective 40th birthdays late last year, talk about the events themselves and associated celebrations, and reflect on how we feel now that it is in the proverbial rear-view mirror.
A lot of quite personal discussion in this one!
We would love to hear from The Listener about this topic.

The Big Mouse and A-train reflect on the never-ending nature of household chores! These chores never end - did you realise that would happen when you were a child? The Big Mouse finds it hard to accept - one of the world's great injustices! We also wrap up the season and reflect on what went well. See you for season 4! Merry Christmas, Listener!

This week on Feckology, The Big Mouse and The A-Train dive head-first into the big, unanswerable questions of existence: topics people whisper about late at night and pretend not to believe in the next morning. From ghosts that linger in the corner of your eye to the uneasy mysteries of death, we explore what might (or might not) be waiting beyond the veil. Is Heaven a place, a feeling, or a story we tell ourselves? Is Hell a load of old codswallop?
Of course, it wouldn’t be Feckology without a spirited detour, so we wander off the path and into the world of Irish folklore - the long-standing mystery of Fairy Rings, and crossing paths with the ominous Púca Dubh.

The Big Mouse and A-Train discuss the perverse relationship that Irish people have with money, covering topics such as the taboo of discussing salary, social awkwardness over paying for things, and the strong urge to avoid thinking about investing money, pensions and all that stuff!
