The Kangaroo Court of Tommy Scullion
from Its a Scullion Thing
The Scullion house doesn’t do "disagreements." We do full-blown judicial inquiries.Welcome to the first episode of It’s a Scullion Thing, a podcast where craziness, chaos, and craic collide in a deeply dysfunctional dance through the trauma soaked, gravy drenched halls of West Belfast family life.The CrimeSet in the heart of Andersonstown in the mid-to-late 70s, we dive headfirst into one of the greatest culinary injustices in Northern Ireland's domestic history: The mysterious disappearance of a sacred Sunday Roast.A tale so dramatic, the neighbours gathered like it was the Last Supper... except with more shouting, more side eyes, and significantly less food.The Courtroom CastWhen Bridie’s lovingly prepared roast vanished, the house transformed into a high stakes courtroom. Think Judge Judy meets Shameless:The Defendant: Rudy the dog. Thrown under the bus (and the dinner table) as the primary suspect.The Judge: Margaret Scullion. Presiding over the kitchen table in a medical head-dressing that looked suspiciously like a powdered wig.The Defense: Tommy Scullion. The eldest sibling, self-appointed head of house, and a man who could give both Columbo and a cornered badger a run for their money.The Prosecution: A terrified neighbor roped in against their will.The Star Witness: Michelle “The Rat” Scullion. The tomboy truth teller with the confidence of a girl who knows exactly when someone is full of shite.What to ExpectTrue Crime Energy: But make it Sunday dinner.Family Politics: The kind that would make Machiavelli blush.Suspicious "Accidents": Involving Monica Scullion (the "nice" one, allegedly) and a very sharp knife.Generational Trauma: Emotional damage disguised as world-class humor.Our family doesn’t just have drama, we weaponize it, pass it down like heirlooms, and make sure it’s loud enough for the neighbours to hear.This isn’t just nostalgia, it’s a warning: Never leave a roast unattended near a hungry Scullion.Like, share, and subscribe... or we’ll send Tommy round. 🤣🤣It’s a Scullion Thing.
