Fair play lads. You invited her on and you had a great conversation that was educational, edifying and entertaining.

Nicola is brilliant 🤩. 🇬🇧

Well done great podcast

[@annied9864]

Really enjoyed this hour ❤

[@gavinwatters1293]

Excellent podcast, lads. I didn't know a great deal about Nicola but I will be sure to check out her podcast. It would be interesting to get an ex-Guard on to touch on some of the issues in society at the moment. You have a broad variety of guests and I haven't seen a cop so it would be interesting to get their take on some contemporary events.

Nicola is great. Not sure why she gets so much hate

[@plats6741]

She's a bit of a,Paul Williams....that should explain alot.

​ Yep, in it for the money, fxxxk the truth!!

[@seamusburke9101]

If you go around telling the truth you're going to get hate. I get it all the time and I'm nobody important. The truth don't go down too well. Up the Barr's.

I grew up in Cork and hung around the pubs and what not in the mid 80s Never been in trouble and listening to you guys is a reality check. I think it's time for coke to be legal. People are going to be doing it in the toilet in a pub either way. Would it get rid of the debt that families owe? I live in CA now and I make great money legally but I think you guys have such an important insight into where things are heading. People like myself have plenty money and kids. Scares the shit out of me when I hear these stories of families having to pay up. This is everyone's problem, not just a problem for the north side anymore. Keep up the good work and great guest. Cheers for CA.

She talks about crime she is making enough money of the backs of it .

[@patti4785]

That's the truth!

[@matthewdelaney9861]

So what? There will always be crime. If it's not her talking about it, it would be someone else.

Nicola looks yummu.. 😮😮

[@IrishPablo94]

Its so easy to get trapped ,i started off buying an ounce of weed 28grams selling 1gram bags for €25 then started buying kilos and doing half ounces and ounces ,then started selling coke trippling my investment and same with the heroin and d10 pills 30cent a pill sell on for €1.50 ,the money was nice but the peace of mine is way better not living that life

[@seamusburke9101]
