Seaniebee likes to think of his Woody-Allen-esque friend, John Devlin, as ‘the soul’ of Dublin: witty, opinionated and a great believer in fighting to protect society, the city and the little guy. John was made redundant at 40; decided to head off to see the world for three months, and didn’t return for three years. He joins the pod to share the stories, wisdom and life-lessons gleaned from the trip, including:
Why it’s never a good idea to say you are an expert scuba diver when in fact you’ve never done it before…and can’t even swim.
The correct way to put on a wetsuit.
The incorrect way to feed parrotfish.
How to woo a Brazilian wife.
Why those of us in the developed world should stop whining about our first world problems and be more thankful for the hand we’ve been dealt.
How children’s habitats are shrinking and why that matters.
The clear signs that show humanity and creativity are in decline.
The rise of kids being molly-coddled by their mammies into adulthood.
How to poke a dead fox with a stick.
And the importance of knowing the difference between a grasshopper and a lizard.
