More daft Shenanigans, if ya know ya know -thanks for listening
-
Tender Hearted Machine
Flight Into Culfadda Pt. 8 is a week behind, so here's one of the daily wotsits I puke out on social media -hard to tell a story in sixty seconds, so I cut out the important bits and left the unnecessary details ...well over a thousand of these floating about for good, bad or irrelevance. More...

Flight Into Culfadda - Chapter 7
More adventures, this time from robo-city

-
Chapter 5 of Flight Into Culfadda Promo
Standby for chapter 5, or words to that effect
-
Flight Into Culfadda - Chapter 4
Chapter 4 ...not sure if I should be putting a description here, there are about three or four of ye listening I think, so ye probably already know the score (in other words more outer space-ish madness as the routine Irish internal flight descends into trippy madness, and First Officer Flod…

The Timmy Tornan Show
Spoof of the Irish TV chat show ...featuring the Irish low budget answer to Elon Musk (prob only works if ya know 'The Tommy Tiernan Show')
-
Flight Into Culfadda - Chapter 3
The plot thickens, or something -had only an hour to get this one done so it's short and erm., well, it furthers the plot. Chat to ye, Brian
-
Flight Into Culfadda - Chapter 2
Part two of the story. Tis hard to know if anyone is following but if you are, and are human, then the tale will run the course. I don't really have a plan for how long it will go. It was meant to be a script for a live show with some local comics, but reality means that will never happen so I...
-
John the Witless
More messing to camera -a riffed tale about one of the characters in 'Flight into Culfadda' ...part 2 of which is out in three days from, well, the time of typing ...which is Monday the 11th of May 2026 on a calm dry slightly cloudy west Irish summer evening.
-
Two minutes of Sci-Fi style mesing to camera
🐨🔥😮😢🔥🎷EMPEROR Nalbert Hokenlaunt ...AGAIN!!! This far NORTH!!! ONSCRONTABLE!!! Some daft filler in place of Ep.2 of 'Flight into Culfadda' -had to push it back a few days. (sort of proud of the way these fall flat on the socials, it's probably the best mark of quality ya can get in this day...
-
The Origin of Gemini Man
A quick tale in the car on the way home -no time to do a full story this week so this'll have to do instead
-
It is Okay to be Wrong
I write and publish a joke a day (following Spike Milligan's advice). I stick them up on the Irish Science Fiction social accounts -there is well over a thousand of them. Some are awful. Some derivative. Most are average. But every so often one does the job ...keeps universal, punches up, and…

Flight Into Culfadda, Chapter/ Episode 1
Chapter 1 of a new long form story. A regional passenger airliner gets notions above the county of Sligo. Apologies, am rusty so the first ten mins is a bit crap but it picks up, and hopefully that's the groove for the next ten or so chapters. Thanks for listening, Brian
-
Human V Machine(AI) Storytelling
More filler ...'Flight into Cúlfadda' should be about next week, like most/all writers this is a hobby and has to go to the bottom of the list of stuff to do -anyhows, this skit is aimed at the AI generated storytelling nonsense, because to my mind the idea of AI creativity is stone mad. It works...
-
The Ballad of Billy the Hatchet
Two min rant to camera/ story.
-
Good night, Michael Knight
The last of the summer wine for a former TV star apologies ...been delayed starting 'black socks'. Writing is about as usefull as a handbrake in a canoe so need to push the adventure back to when I can give it time. Thank you if you're checking this stream out. BTW -have a plan for filming…

The Dreaded Writer's Block
A three minute story. If you are tuning in and got a kick from this there are daily jokes on the Irish Science Fiction YouTube that ya might get a giggle from. I try to keep them under a minute ...and there are currently 800+ uploaded (with over half sitting on zero views, which is either an...
-

-
The Clock at Dunsoggany Station (2 min tale)
A not so funny tale about burnout. On the plus side it's quick. A modern day SF adventure will be out in a fortnight -a self contained tale about a Martian Cephalod, a Socially Engineered girl and a TV show host (prob be a run time of twenty to thirty mins). Thanks for tuning in, Brian
-
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean nobody is watching (90 sec gag)
More joke filler ...alt comedy -so ya know, user experience may vary
-
Was Darwin Wrong? (90 second gag)
Just a 90 sec gag in the car to the phone. I think there are three or four watching/ listening to these so ...hello, hope all's good with you -if you tuned in to Nancy G there'll be another long tale starting next month (Nov '25), with a few short bits of stories/ messing in between. Enjoy Oíche...

Midlife Crisis (Five Min Story)
Recorded this on the phone (and the phone has seen better days) so the quality is not great, but might give ya a snigger.

Competitive Dad Joke
Part of a self imposed joke a day thing I'm doing for social media. Some are not bad, but mostly just variations of old school generic standup gags. I think ya can add a comment below -I've hundreds of these so if it's something ya could play then add a message and I'll clip them into some sort…

Sketch for another show ...tis starting to bug me when folk say they found out on ChatGPT and it's somehow fine, but when I say 'I made it up' or 'it's just something I feel like could be true' then it's unreliable
-
