It was a joy to sit and chat with Séamas as I’ve been a long time fan of his work. He’s a man with quite a few viral moments. The twitter thread about meeting the President while high, and then of course, “10 siblings!” However, he’s much more than just a meme muse. With 2 deadly books under his belt and columns in all the papers, his very particular style of writing (and humour) is very easy to spot and just as easy to relate to.

I must now publicly apologise to our fantastic editor and producer, Dee Reddy, who had the chore of trimming this 90min pub chat (most of which was quick fire insults being lobbed back and forth) down to a much more palatable length.
