  • Cool for cats, cool for caaaaaats & other tales
    Dec 6 2024

    Brace yourselves for a purr-fectly scandalous episode as Father Simon and the Confessional collective hear some truly cat-astrophic tales of sin and mischief.

    Reverend Timothy dealings with a parishioner may or may not have included a suspicious nudge towards an open grave (and a funeral plan that was less than divine). Babs recounts her chaotic stay in a fancy Singapore hotel where her toddler caused a five foot floral and water disaster. Dad's confession is equal parts heat warming and horrifying: keeping the family cat, in the fridge for a final farewell, while spinning an increasingly tangled web of lies about the feline's untimely demise. And Gez's golf holiday prank on his forgetful mate with a fictional Spanish romance, doesn't go too well with his wife. Plus the Not For Broadcast Section debates questionable brownies and special sauce. We also talk shame stain colour theory and Matt's perfect Christmas gift.

    It's a wild ride of redemption, laughs and the occasional feline wizard. Don't miss it!

  • Walk and talk & other tales
    Nov 29 2024

    Prepare yourself for a bumper batch of belly laughing inducing confessions as Father Simon and the Confessional collective open their ears to a new generation of sinners and mischief makers.

    Alastair shares the tale of his dad's ingenious flat security measures, which left an entire family hostage until a coat hanger and a helpful neighbour saves the day. Damien recalls his Christmas job in a catalogue shop, where his clever use of a Talkboy turned festive cheer into Christmas Eve chaos. Monty meanwhile shares the grim tale of a portaloo walkie-taklie rescue that went...unwashed! La Di Da Gunner Graham’s mischief turns a marching band into a marching disaster. Plus the 'Not For Broadcast' section features a floating fish and debates on what constitutes "very illegal". We also talk Christmas confession submissions. Oh and Simon may have rebranded a social media platform with a chocolate theme.
