The Daily Telegraph went as far as to say that it “could turn out to be one of the biggest podcasts since Ricky Gervais picked up a microphone.” An Irishman Abroad was named to the much coveted iTunes Best of 2013 list as the best new audio podcast of the year.

Jarlath’s been seen on Tonight at the Palladium (ITV), Stand up Central (Comedy Central) Russell Howard’s Good News (BBC3) Comedy Central’s The World Stands Up, Last Comic Standing on NBC, and The Apprentice You’re Fired (TV3).
