This is so difficult to listen to without feeling his feeling as a terrified child. Unless you feel that, you’ll never know how it goes. I pray you get everything good the world has for you Silence is NEVER GOLDEN

Great to see Joey interviewed and I commend the lads for giving him air time. After hearing the podcast I was concerned for Joeys safety and felt a need to maybe reach out to him if there would be any help I could give, it’s so important that he have a circle of protection now. But hearing toward the end that he does in fact have others, is great to hear. Even the two males here showing concern is a step in itself, showing Joey that he’s not alone. He’s Irish and we all look out for one another. Secondly Nicola came across as professional, level headed, competent and clearly volunteered a lot of her time and her life to this cause. So thank you Nicola, a great representative to Irish journalism.

Journalism at its very best lads well done, I don't think anyone else could have gotten the story like that. I think #127 will go down as my favourite and boy has it some strong competition. Nicola you are some woman and have no doubt had a major role in the turnaround that I so badly hoped for Joey. Finally Joey, Stay Strong, I hung on your every word, no doubt you will save may lives by sharing your story and putting it out there. It is so cruel you had such a bad start to your life but please God all that is behind you and a life full of hope, good health and happiness is ahead. Best wishes 🦋

Absolutely blown away. So grateful for Joey’s strength and Nicola’s immense empathy and support. Powerful stuff as always, lads - your ability to relate to your incredible guests and create an atmosphere of comfort and safety that allows them to not only tell their stories, but have a bit of craic while doing so, is unmatched. Vital, important, and often heavy topics - but always with hope, optimism, and guidance for those who might be struggling themselves. Immensely moved by each and every podcast. Can’t thank ye enough.

What a podcast and what a fella joe is / my god this fella was groomed at a very young age god bless him!! I usually go tru KZfaq some times very quickly and when I read this about joe I just was gobsmacked to be very honest about it!! He didn’t have a life until he walked away from the vermin who treated him like dirt and I hope that fella suffers every day in jail and stop and think what he has done to this fella This is one of the best podcasts I’ve watched in a very long time and these fellas doing the interview are the most understanding people ever seen in a very long time FairPlay to them and they should be very proud of themselves for this podcast And of course our one and only Nichola talent god bless her for all the stuff she has done over the years for people like joe but this one really stands out from all the rest of them Joe I really wish you all the best of luck for the future you are an amazing dude and I wouldn’t blame you at all to do what was right in that part of your life joe !! Again a outstanding podcast with outstanding people I really enjoyed watching it!! Best of luck to all of you in it
