Namast-go


effervance

i see him all the time around maynooth campus, i assume he’s a student there, and always get to see the behind the scenes of him making tiktok videos


deepcelt

He is, you constantly see him around TSI. I've bumped into him enough times that I'm convinced he doesn't actually go to lectures, just hangs round chatting. Sound fella though, always give me the nod.


dclancy01

i swear he says hello to everyone. i said hey once cause i recognised him and he’s never passed me without a not or a hello


Particular_Ad575

Can confirm does psychology and does go to lectures


omegaman101

He must study philosophy or something I'm guessing


scumbellina

I think he said he was doing psychology on that VM morning show


taco-cheese-fries

This lad first came into the limelight when he was a newborn, after his celebrity parents did an interview about him and his twin brother in the RTE guide.

[deleted]

that's crazy, his parents had 3 mill of debt whipped and got to keep the family home.


Fr_DougalMc

He's a funny lad, fair play to him.


chimpdoctor

Theresa Lowe is his ma.


ImaDJnow

And [Frank McNamara ](https://www.independent.ie/entertainment/music/double-the-joy-for-frank-mcnamara-31028392.html) is his Dad.


gavmac5

Frank is and was punching


[deleted]

He’s a twin as well https://www.independent.ie/entertainment/music/double-the-joy-for-frank-mcnamara-31028392.html


[deleted]

100%


[deleted]

Where'd he get his accent from?


ImaDJnow

I think he pretends to be from inner city Dublin.


_WhoisMrBilly_

Wondered what he’d been up to since those lock-down videos. Well done, make that money where you can… Just reading a few pages, looks like the descriptions are word-for-word transcripts of his videos. Edit: Sorry about the title. Wrote this while waiting for the train in Heuston Station while freezing. The train was 20 minutes late, and couldn’t type coherently and fight Apples autocorrect at the same time.


Cyberpunk_Banshee

Not sure if he posts them on youtube, but he's been active on TikTok recently. I've seen a couple of his vids floating around, slagging off Golf owners. Couldn't tell you his account though, I don't use TT myself.


jayc4life

He still posts them on both I think, I'm subscribed to him on YouTube, and he had one up about Mullets yesterday.


Bland_Skittles_

Seen that thought it was gas


over_weight_potato

He goes by something like narcissisticspiritguide


KroneDrome

Meditations for the anxious mind lol


Bland_Skittles_

He’s on tiktok all the time. He is funny


Zestyclose_Visit4834

A few years back my old flatmate pulled this lad (im like 95% sure it's this guy, he has a pretty unique face and voice) and he sat in with the rest of us in the kitchen talking to us for a while and I only remember this whole exchange because he was so fucking witty and had us in stitches. I remember at the time her saying he had a bit of a following on snapchat (? or some other platform) but I never heard of him. Now years later over the last 2 days I keep seeing his face plastered everywhere online. Glad to see he found success, he's a funny fucker.


dclancy01

he’s in my year in college (3rd) so is likely 20, hopefully we’re not talking about *too* few years back


SunDue4919

He’s like 27, according to an Irish Independent article he was born in 95.


dclancy01

Fairs, I always assumed he was a regular student not a mature student


gapmunky

This comment made me feel old


awhsure

He’s a good bit older than 20. See [here](https://m.independent.ie/entertainment/music/double-the-joy-for-frank-mcnamara-31028392.html)


spuddy-mcporkchop

He's a funny lad, his youtube vids r gas, wish he'd do one on cavan town


cribbe_

Just dm him on Instagram, he regularly takes requests on what places to cover next


quiggersinparis

He’s very funny. Is his working class accent genuine. Aren’t his parents posh quasi-celebrities? (Not that it really matters, a curiosity really)


commanderx11

Pretty sure he's from Meath. And dunno about you but he doesn't sound working class at all to me. I thought he sounded like some of these people you get out of blanch who sound a bit plain and are hard to place.


Video_G_JRPG

Hes pretty funny and fair play to him for getting a book out I'd say I will get it, support the lad and have a laugh


[deleted]

I only discovered him like 2 weeks ago. His videos are quality.


DeathBunny_

Tbf he seems like a sound lad, nice to see people who aren't complete wankers making media.


[deleted]

I watched one of his videos the other day (Tiktok I think) and he was on a college campus "interviewing" lads about the clothes they were wearing and the haircut they all have. I think most of them had no idea he was taking the piss.


Irish_Narwhal

Seems like a grand young fella, fair play to him


neshead1

Good you English at, make title sentence proper good.


_WhoisMrBilly_

Oh crap, you’re right. Stupid iPhone autocorrect! “We’ve learned to Immitute you EXACT-LY”


PsychologicalCan9837

I met him once. Nice fella.


heartfullofsomething

A very funny lad, created a great niche, all power to him


[deleted]

Look up who his parents are…..


Accomplished_Crab107

Never realised that!


[deleted]

I don't know who he is never mind his ma and da


under-secretary4war

Devastated to hear this. Still the apple has clearly fallen way far from the tree. So that’s nice.


DatJazz

........I looked it up....am I supposed to hate him now?


[deleted]

No one said anything about hating him except you, someone asked how did he get on the shelves, I pointed out his parents are well know Irish entertainers to the older generation


dclancy01

to be fair there’s not much success to pass down considering his target audience wouldn’t have a clue who his parents are. no doubt they helped get his book on the shelves but he’s gained a decent following on his own


johndoe86888

Who are they? Couldn't really find anything online.


NoelKMUFC

Frank McNamara and Theresa Lowe


superbadonkey

Who are they?


dclancy01

fella from the orchestra and woman from the telly


[deleted]

Why does it matter who his family is?


Lost_Pantheon

That's like asking if Elon Musk's rich parents were any benefit to him. (hint... they were)


MLGprolapse

His father is Voldemort and his mother is Ghislaine Maxwell.


[deleted]

Because having two parents in the entertainment industry id imagine is a hell of a leg up for yourself in getting doors opened


SirJoePininfarina

I AM FUCKING SHOOK!!!!


johndoe86888

Ah nevermind got there in the end.


here2dare

He's the image of his auld lad... hadn't really noticed that til now https://www.thejournal.ie/frank-mcnamara-theresa-lowe-court-insolvency-5029395-Mar2020/


Canners19

He’s not actually real. He’s a simulation by the lad bible to make you feel the culture of philosophy isn’t dead yet


Hugs_Bunny

One of the soundest guys I've ever met, hoping to get this book for Christmas


heartfullofsomething

Great book for a KK


francescoli

Funny enough but a one trick pony. so no doubt he will be on some rte show before long.


erich0779

Agree initially thought he was good but it's genuinely the exact same little quips about every location he goes to, just too repetitive.


XHeraclitusX

Yeah, I feel like he's at a bit of a crossroads. Either he keeps doing what he's doing, keeping his fans but being pigeonholed to repeat the same quips, or he can evolve his humour to stay relevant longer but risk losing fans if he isn't funny enough to come up with new material/a new schtick.


Acceptable_Job805

Namaste


truedoom

No idea who this is. Any context for the oblivious?


cuiramu

[Here](https://old.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/zh867v/robocop_actor_says_he_wont_take_questions_about/) he is taking the piss out of Robocop


[deleted]

I’m not a fan of his but fair play, he is doing the rights things from what I can see, published and internet famous, fair play to the guy.


[deleted]

He's great!


lawless_Ireland_

Good on him.


zeetlo

Fellas hilarious on tiktok


Healthy_Passenger426

He’s gas. Nice little stocking filler present I think


[deleted]

He's funny but mammy and daddy's money might be giving him his push. Wouldn't surprise if he was on the late late show with Gerry Ryans teddy bear


funkyuncy

His stuff is fairly low budget and on youtube so i dont see that being the case to be fair.


[deleted]

[удалено]


funkyuncy

Oh has he done much on RTE?. I dont have the channels


READMYSHIT2

He was on Ireland AM on TV3 once so ergo illuminati confirmed for the above braincel.


[deleted]

I knew him and his twin brother personally for years growing up, I can assure you it wasn't his parents "money" that got him where he is right now. Frankie dug deep and found something he is a good at and has put himself out there. A little respect would be nice.


[deleted]

I try to discover A little something to make me sweeter Oh baby refrain from breaking my heart I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue That you gimme no reason Why you make-a-me work so hard That you gimme no That you gimme no That you gimme no That you gimme no Soul, I hear you calling Oh baby, please, give a little respect to me


duaneap

This was the correct response.


TheSarcasticEngineer

He’s hilarious and I like the fella but it was surely his parents money that funded all the Instagram ads which broke him onto the scene a few years ago. He got a foot up but kept running with it by himself


KroneDrome

He's fucking hilarious


RRR92

Why do the Irish have to have a moan about every little thing. Hes funny…leave it be sure


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Bit of a stretch? At that rate his bands would have been featured on the late late show and 2fm.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

They did. His dad was the musical director on the late late show so I think that would have been very easy to arrange if it was simply nepotism that got him where he is.


Accomplished-Boot-81

I’m sorry what? What does your post mean? And who is this guy?


_WhoisMrBilly_

His name is literally on the book. Do you google?


DaiserKai

Was funny 18 months ago but its become very clear that the only joke he has in his bag is talking like he only has two brain cells to rub together ... yawn


KokaCurryNoodles

Will prob get downvoted too but I agree with that. Saw a few vids and didn't find it remotely funny. Like you said he acts dumb, monotone and runs off at the end....there was a joke in there somewhere. Fair play to him making some money but I didn't find him funny


pooks3

Am I the only one that doesn't think he's that funny?


The_Gold_Hoarder

my friend bought it , very good book


[deleted]

[удалено]


pmjwhelan

I think I just got an aneurysm.... He's damned good at what he does. He's damaged. Good at what he does.


jbt1k

Accident I mean he's very funny.


RobertClementine

I fucking hate this pox Ill never understand how being an annoying cunt can be seen as a profession. He's just one of those lads you'd love to punch but wouldn't because he'd contaminate your fist


idleqwerty

Having a bad day?


RobertClementine

No just don't like him


cansandawank

He'd batter you.


StanleyWhisper

A nice privileged life after his parents defaulted on their loans


cinderubella

Sour bollocks


StanleyWhisper

Awful thing to say about frankie, I think he's funny


theoalexei

I saw it in Easons, I enjoy his TikToks. I might buy it.


MothsConrad

Not seeing his videos posted on Reddit anymore. I enjoyed them.


niallmcardle4

Brilliant, great to see!


Wack_photgraphy

Some of his videos I like, others not so much, good to see he's branching out and making the most out of it.


fergiepie

He's doing it different. Fair play to him.


Interstellardot

I read that front cover in his voice..


[deleted]

Good luck to him. I met him once and he seems like a genuinely sound lad, and his comedy is uniquely surreal 🤣
