Micro Mickeys, Dodgy Devices and Musty Hotels Ep: 007

This week on Don’t Call Me Darling, Niall and Karen are back with another gloriously chaotic mix of marriage, relationships, holidays, strange news stories and the kind of conversations that probably shouldn’t leave the house.

We start with the soggy aftermath of Electric Picnic, including mud masks nobody asked for, questionable toilets, and the very important matter of Peequals.

There’s also Rio, the dog who travelled 1,000 miles, cat bites, tiny toy dogs, and the extraordinary claim that children were apparently left traumatised by the heat of the Irish summer.

Niall and Karen get into getting lost, the mysterious man in the white van, the nine year old boy who fell asleep in a library, and the curse of having little legs.

Then Karen unleashes her inner oul wan in the nightclub, the staff are rude, the drink costs a fortune and, worst of all, the DJ is shite.

This week’s listener dilemmas include a man who thinks he may be falling back in love with his ex wife, and another who discovered a mysterious ddo in his wife’s drawer** and now doesn’t know whether to confront her or pretend he never saw it.

There are musty hotel rooms, the fiancé who cancelled the wedding just seven days before the big day, Niall’s dramatic airport personality change, and the battle between the person who wants to arrive at the airport ridiculously early and the last minute man who thinks five minutes before boarding is perfectly acceptable.

We also get some wedding planning advice from an astrologer, discuss solar eclipses, Luna Lovegood, OnlyFans, and why Niall reckons the only subscription service he could make money from would involve people paying him to put more clothes on.

Plus, there’s a huge black panther apparently on the prowl, the micro Mickey struggle, and Borat’s ex wife revealing the things that gave her the ick.

It’s marriage, mayhem, bad decisions and far too much information.

Don’t Call Me Darling with Niall and Karen Boylan. Real marriage, real stories, real laughs and real truths.
