Colin's Kicks! This

0:18

is a tough guy, it's great to

0:20

be here in Washington where I truly

0:22

belong. Look, I'm sorry the Referendums

0:24

back home were such a double disaster. Frankly,

0:27

I don't know what Roderick O'Gorman was thinking.

0:29

But you personally led the campaign and offended

0:31

Carers during that interview on the Six O'Clock

0:33

Show on Virgin Media. No, no, I don't

0:35

think it's my fault. It's

0:37

just the Ballymount roundabout curse. I mean,

0:39

every time I'm interviewed by some former

0:41

Rugby stud, Terrind Light Entertainment host, I

0:44

just freeze like my eyebrows in the

0:46

last year. Hello to all the

0:48

international press who are here, BTW. Yeah, there's

0:50

no media outside Ireland actually covering these visits,

0:52

Colty. It's so great to have this platform

0:54

on the world stage for Ireland to showcase

0:56

its enormous influence in America. It's only Irish

0:58

hacks, there's nobody here for the world stage.

1:01

Each year we give the President a bowl

1:03

of Shamrock in the Oval Office. And

1:05

in return we let America do what it

1:07

likes with Shannon Airport and its companies to

1:09

dry hump our tax system. How is it

1:12

good if in return for a gift we

1:14

have to keep giving them whatever they want?

1:16

My first engagement is to have a socially

1:18

awkward breakfast with Kamala Harris. I

1:20

have so much in common with Avipe personally.

1:23

She's the least popular occupant of her office

1:25

too and also doesn't care. Her

1:27

only achievement is standing next to a befuddled

1:30

old man in order to win power to

1:32

which I say, OMG, samezies. Hi, me hoe.

1:34

Are you planning to say very angry things

1:36

to Joe Biden about Gaza later on, Colty?

1:38

Absolute-a-rama. The aim is to go super viral.

1:41

I mean, it's been ages since I went

1:43

viral. And that last time was an

1:45

accident and also private. Moving

1:47

on. Yeah, so I can promise

1:49

you will actually mean the anger even though

1:52

it'll be hard to tell since I can't

1:54

frown anymore. Again, for private reasons we won't

1:56

go into today. The

2:00

global stage as Cease Fire. Or let's

2:02

be honest, if Israel just started buying

2:04

loads of beef, cheese or Chris we'd

2:06

afford the same blinds I begin or

2:08

other trading partners who chop off heads

2:10

or dubbed lead women leave the house

2:12

or whatever. There's an awful lot to

2:14

be said for sales of condensed milk

2:16

Lads for go through with right sad

2:18

just recording thing stuff. best supporting undocumented

2:20

Irish and then minus any self awareness.

2:22

I'll talk about how we don't have

2:24

any more room for immigrants coming to

2:26

our did cause have a defensive isn't

2:28

the houses? After thirteen year the Azad.

2:31

Roderick A Gorman yes, he to blame for

2:33

that to us. Anyway, go for. Guess I'll

2:35

be in an Irish bar this weekend. Pretended

2:37

to was rugby again so be sure to

2:39

publish the usual States photo that I'll have

2:41

one of my hangers on. take you don't

2:43

even like sports of didn't offer if I

2:45

look boys in the pic. It's only the

2:47

naturally pained expression that comes from wearing a

2:50

jersey three sizes too small for me teaser

2:52

because I asked about the right everyone. It's

2:54

Patties Weekends as America which means of the

2:56

one saying Enterprise are limits of a free

2:58

bar some around the corridor seconds every. Now

3:00

5:47

I wanted to say brits us any

5:53

do you think the yanks would even notice when

5:55

i come back as the actual teas and not

5:58

the past d c what he may have In

6:00

most years they seem to think I'm the

6:02

leader of Ireland anyway. Oh right. When they're

6:04

asking do we have running water yet and

6:06

is our currency in potatoes? And I'm like

6:08

yeah whatever you think just sign over the

6:11

cash, biatch. Anyway boss, here's the itinerary for

6:13

the weekend. Let me guess, afternoon

6:15

tea with Sarah Jessica Parker? Ed no.

6:17

She's always up on Donegal isn't she?

6:19

And the husband has a conviction. The

6:21

bang of shinner off her. Well no

6:23

it's not her, you're gonna be addressing

6:25

it. A room full of Irish Americans

6:27

with bulging checkbooks and enlarged prostates? No

6:29

aye back you're addressing. Sorry? You're

6:31

addressing aye back. Boss. Oh right.

6:34

I've forgotten we've bounced all our old

6:36

values and are going hard centrist now.

6:39

Okay let's go, let's go. Yep, I've

6:41

got your speech here. Which

6:44

is why if anyone ever denies that Ireland

6:46

is the best small country in the world

6:48

in which to do business. I say to

6:51

them I beg your pardon,

6:53

I think you'll find it is.

6:56

Thank you folks. Chuckie our business lobby. Thank

6:58

you, thank you. That went really well boss.

7:01

I'll make sure any clips of you laughing

7:03

prosperously with aye back execs is scrubbed from

7:05

any social media. Superb, get me into the

7:08

car for Washington yeah. I'm

7:12

so wiped. You've been absolutely fantastic boss. Just

7:14

think this time of 2025, you and the

7:16

Oval Office. A

7:18

dream come true, net out. Of course

7:21

sadly it's more likely to be visiting

7:23

you know who rather than them. Are

7:25

you okay boss? Yeah. Your eyelids

7:27

are sort of. Boss?

7:29

It's a tremendous. Are you

7:31

awake or? It's tremendous. Hello

7:33

boss. It

7:37

is a tremendous honor and a

7:39

personal thrill to finally be here

7:41

in the White House with you

7:43

Mr. President. Begley. Wait

7:45

what? Where's Joe? The Irish

7:48

toast shop Milani Lou is welcome. We

7:50

got so much in common. Sir if

7:52

we do. Both of us Republicans were

7:54

both opposed to the Lion EU. A

7:56

crooked NATO. Well now. We both said

7:59

nice things about. Russia. Russia.

8:02

To be fair, we wiped our internet history since

8:04

then. The woke media is so biased, so nasty

8:06

against both of us. So horrible. Well, the spinto

8:08

can be. But when people say not nice things

8:10

and they do, it's terrible. It's true, but they

8:12

do. We just sue them, don't we? Oh God,

8:15

I don't feel well. Remind me of your policy

8:17

on immigrants again. And let's just get on with

8:19

this before I barf, Mr. Press. Yes, Malani Lou.

8:21

I can't believe I'm doing this. Come

8:24

on, we got lunch with Secretary of

8:26

State Taylor Green after this. Spit it

8:29

out. Oh God, no. Will you buy

8:31

some Irish steaks from us, President? Viggly!

8:34

We also have some yogurts in UHT to

8:36

flog. Here's the bowl of shamrock. Oh God,

8:38

I think I'm gonna throw up. So long

8:40

as you don't ruin my new rug, it's

8:43

got Robert E. Lee's face on it. Oh

8:45

God, no. It's a beauty. It's a terrific

8:47

piece. Beautiful. Oh. You

9:01

know, I don't see much more in the broad

9:03

sheets about my frantic dash to the hospital, Sabina.

9:06

You're well again now, my man-eaten. I'm

9:09

sure my subjects have thought of nothing else

9:11

since... Well, we all know

9:13

how you don't like to make a scene. And

9:16

where are all my get-well cards? I

9:18

saw the mountains the Hoy Paloy sent

9:20

to King Charles. He's battling cancer. It's

9:22

hardly the same. I was in hospital.

9:24

An Irish hospital. Didn't

9:27

you see the cut of the place with its broken stuff?

9:29

I was lucky I didn't catch a... Humility?

9:32

Sepsis. Or a super

9:35

bunk. A coronavirus. Right? No

9:37

more news for you until you tog it

9:39

a bit more goboge. Here.

9:42

I'll give you the entertainment supplement. Is

9:44

that an oral supplement or must

9:46

one drop one's bleach? Newspaper supplement!

9:49

Oh yes, yes, yes, yes. Oh

9:52

yes. More stuff about the British

9:54

royals. Kate hasn't been

9:56

seen since her hospitalisation. Oh no.

10:00

All sorts of conspiracy theories. I

10:03

mean sometimes months go by without

10:05

my public receiving a glimpse of

10:07

moi. Where am I conspiracy-erav? The

10:09

loonies say they replaced Kate with

10:11

a body double. I mean that

10:13

would hardly be believable in your

10:16

case. Maybe I've been,

10:18

what is it again, off secretly having a,

10:20

what does this say, a BBL.

10:23

What is a BBL when it's a warrior?

10:25

I'd worry for your blood pressure if I

10:28

told you. Still look at the fabulous coverage.

10:31

Perhaps I should release a photo-sharp

10:33

picture posing with Mishnoch. Are there

10:35

even any photoshops left open these

10:38

days? That's enough news now. You've

10:40

got a lovely relaxing weekend ahead.

10:42

Let's focus on that. Yes, yes

10:44

I suppose. What's on the itinerary?

10:47

First, the rugby. Great. Ugh. The

10:49

team of yucks who bottled it

10:51

yet again. But the rugby crowd

10:54

always cheer for you. Only because

10:56

they're drunk on some corporate tap.

10:58

Then on Sunday you get to

11:00

watch the parade. Oh, it's at

11:03

that time of year again already.

11:05

Watching hours of marching bands followed

11:07

by three million euro worth of

11:10

grants for paper-mash-a garbage. Stutiously avoiding

11:12

making any sort of point about

11:14

anything. And don't forget, the ministers

11:16

are all abroad. Eh, all

11:18

of them? Yes, all. Which makes

11:21

you the designated survivor. I

11:23

mean, I'd be in charge if something were to happen like,

11:26

I dunno, some sort of half-defrosted stew gave

11:28

the lot of them a fortnight of the

11:30

galloping skitters. Oh, the things

11:32

one would do, Sabina. Solve the

11:35

housing crisis. Fix health under socialist

11:37

rule. No, no, no, no, no,

11:39

I was thinking far bigger. Solving

11:41

the Gaza crisis. That would really

11:43

show for rancour and those... By

11:45

writing another intemperate memorandum. Oh.

11:48

But first, I

11:50

think I have my tea in the reading room.

11:52

Not too hot. A little custard cream on the

11:54

doily on the side. You know, the ones with

11:57

Che Guevara Silouette. Nice tea. A little bath, yes,

11:59

yes. Then Haitian. watch Mr Keelty catch

12:01

up on some marriage at First

12:03

Sight Australia, as honored by that.

12:05

What a revolutionary! Now

12:14

it's time to go to a roundup of

12:16

the St Patrick's Day parades from across the

12:19

country as we join our regional correspondents who

12:21

are finally taking time off from hoping

12:23

for grisly murders to happen just so they

12:25

can get done the news and

12:28

we begin with our southern chorus

12:30

disbandant. First

12:54

was the title of the presentation from

12:57

the Balloncolleague Table Tennis Association

12:59

which recreated the hospital scene

13:02

in 28 Days Later in

13:04

which Killian got his rebel member

13:07

out. Disco pigs

13:09

was the pungent and

13:11

barely controlled offering from the

13:14

local makra, featuring quite

13:16

literally pigs at

13:18

a disco. Plastic sheeting,

13:21

grand parade, grand

13:23

parade. Always

13:25

eager to be the first parade of St

13:28

Patrick's Day, Dingle and Dangle were taken no

13:30

chances this year. The town's

13:32

parade got underway at 6 o'clock

13:34

in the morning on March 18th

13:36

last year with local publican Nellie

13:38

Fredigan walking the length of Goat

13:40

Street on a continuous loop ever

13:42

since then. Fairweather resident Killian Morphy's

13:45

Oscar triumph was marked with a

13:47

tribute to the peninsula's busy holiday

13:49

season as local refugee residents carry

13:51

their belongings up the street in

13:53

a symbolic nod of what they

13:55

have to do during the Easter holidays or whenever

13:57

someone books their three-star hotel for a wedding. Sean

14:00

Macrante, Dingledangan, all along the banks

14:02

of the Wild Atlantic Way. The

14:07

Longford Parade got off to a lively

14:10

start with the title sponsors, Grand Herds,

14:12

Grainery and Vapes, throwing free shamrock-shaped rock

14:14

buns and green vapes into the overexcited

14:16

crowd, forcing delighted members

14:19

of Angara-Shirkana to utilize tasers.

14:22

Centre Parks sponsors' activities proved a

14:24

highlight, with children along the parade

14:26

route zip-lining from the roofs of

14:28

the shops and pubs made derelict

14:31

and abandoned thanks to the success

14:33

of the corporate asset fund owned

14:35

Holiday Village, while Ballymahan's

14:37

local witch, Mary Dunleavy, handed out free

14:40

curses to anyone who looked at her

14:42

crooked, and Father Mildrew thrashed

14:44

people with daffodils for a fiver

14:46

in aid of the local crack-down.

14:49

All in all, a memorable day in

14:51

Longford, details of which are up for

14:53

mention in the District Court in April.

14:57

Who are you liable to? was

15:00

the theme of the Turles Parade,

15:02

with Grand Marshal Shamy off the

15:04

choice show, leading a vibrant procession,

15:07

celebrating tribal rivalries and savage haircuts

15:09

through the ages. Entertainers

15:12

from the Bunrati Folk Park

15:14

joined with local militia groups

15:16

to recreate famous Midland skirmishes,

15:18

as children from the local

15:20

primary schools enjoyed face painting

15:22

and cyberbullying in this often

15:25

confusing celebration of the past

15:27

and the future, while the

15:30

Tiptown Ukulele Orchestra played a

15:32

barely recognisable version of Murder

15:34

on the Dance Floor, which

15:36

was then ceremonially booed by

15:38

the Killin' All ICA recorder

15:41

band. Regional

15:43

reporter, wishing I'd taken the package

15:45

in the well-hidden heartlands.

you by falling asleep in your

21:05

girlfriend house to sell how much

21:07

of a rose you. A

21:17

citizen and settle down with a loner. Little

21:19

I will look at is bad enough for

21:21

after getting lambasted by the voters know roughly

21:23

once when I can't even rely need to

21:25

follow the party line a giving you an

21:27

especially thrown his his and her temper tantrums

21:29

and the five those it with my concerns

21:31

and he says. After. Reading the

21:34

Attorney General's advice, i would who's lead

21:36

to cost to the ditch and the attorney

21:38

general's of didn't seem to know what to

21:40

do a relationship is you embarrassed our dear

21:42

leader li said canvassing for yes yes force

21:44

and then you voted no no i can't

21:46

believe you would do do that i didn't

21:48

we planned this plan this in terms of

21:51

a you are for all photos from supporters

21:53

of the or just yes of them are

21:55

you have an awfully diseases of with to

21:57

stop doing that to building no no it's

21:59

over Yes, she was handing out leaflets in the

22:01

city centre as well. Is that what they were for?

22:03

What? Oh, I thought there was a sale in the

22:05

ILAC centre. Ah, yeah. At least John McGinnis had

22:08

a courage to say he was voting no-no before

22:10

the polls. That's right. In fairness, he always knifes

22:12

me in the front as well as the back.

22:14

Anytime, Mihal, any time. But only fessing up that

22:16

you voted no, after you saw that the Northside

22:18

had won no. Yeah, daddy Mihal's right. It's a

22:20

bit like suddenly claiming to be a country music

22:22

fan just because Beyonce's made an album. What? What?

22:25

What? I don't know. If you don't

22:27

understand Jack Sommer's reference there, insert your

22:29

G8 Club of Choice after reaching a

22:31

surprise county final. Ahh! Look,

22:34

there's no escaping the fact that the ILAC forces pulled the

22:36

trigger on the Walkburg aid. It is time now

22:39

to shut down Mihal and his walky hate speech

22:41

laws for good. You mean

22:43

the bill that you've already voted for,

22:45

will you? It's an abomination to criminalise

22:47

decent people calling their neighbours a golly

22:49

gimp or a bony back-sor-ever. We need

22:52

to get back to Finafore's core valour.

22:54

Like shiny suits, a fourth funeral to

22:56

eat, mustaches dipped into cavalry dinners after

22:58

the first entrance. No, no, no,

23:01

no, no, no. We need to refocus in terms of

23:03

elections coming up. I mean, if Darryl Bryan would ever

23:05

settle on a date for the locals and the name

23:07

again. It'll definitely be around June. But we need

23:09

clarifications in terms of the date of the election.

23:11

It'll depend on the tides and Malia. I mean,

23:13

if there's a high evening tide, the gents floods

23:15

and the scaldy Jacks though, it'll stay between the

23:17

RDS instead. Anyway, I'm off to

23:19

South Africa for Paddy's weekend. Does anyone know if

23:21

he can bring a voo-voo Zaylen cabin luggage or

23:24

a... Actually, we probably all should get

23:26

to the airport. Yeah, but we're the cover of

23:28

things to do yet. Stop now! No, no, no,

23:30

no, no, no running there. No. A

23:40

week after wasting 20 million

23:42

on a double-recorrenum, the government

23:44

blows more money gallivanting worldwide

23:46

this week on their increasingly

23:48

questionable St. Patrick's tradition, the

23:50

expensive Aegis Exodus. The

23:53

Minister for Mishandling Riot Helen MacKenty is

23:56

in New York, where Gardee were reportedly

23:58

banned from this year's parade. This

24:02

is not about Gardi being sober and

24:04

not giving GA players the bumps like

24:06

last year. This is

24:08

about a very small group of officers wreaking havoc

24:10

on a bag of cans out of a 7-11.

24:14

Minister, is this a less dangerous city than

24:16

Dublin or...? New York is safe. There's hardly

24:18

any murders on four Mondays of the year

24:20

by now. Minister Ayman

24:22

Rhines, John to Brazil, will produce two

24:24

tons of emissions, significantly more than if

24:27

we just posted that cardboard cutout that

24:29

Michael O'Leary made of him. I

24:31

can understand that Ryanair is angry about

24:34

the Dublin Airport green cap, but I

24:36

think it's great. I got

24:38

it in the gift shop in the loop, and

24:40

it's got this hilarious ginger wig and hilarious ginger

24:42

beard attached. I

24:44

slept the whole way here. I feel amazing. Nobody's

24:47

more suited to a day with a

24:49

diaspora than Pascal Dunahue, the cabinet minister

24:51

who was desperate to diaspora himself

24:54

after a job that pays half a million in

24:56

the IMF. Instead, Pascal is still

24:59

a minister, and he's in Paris. It

25:02

is not true. I am not unhappy,

25:04

and I never ever wanted the big

25:06

boy job anyway. Oh, who am I

25:08

kidding? Of course I want out. Everybody

25:10

wants to leave Finnigwael. Even Leo's eyebrows

25:13

look desperate to get away. I'm

25:15

so sad. I think my cheeks

25:17

are finally un-simple. Ha

25:20

ha ha! And just

25:22

when you thought South Africa hadn't suffered

25:24

enough, Ireland sent them a whole weekend's

25:27

worth of walking, Roddy Doyle

25:29

character, Darrow Brine. Darrow

25:32

gets it done in the sun.

25:34

Look at all these lovely corrugated,

25:36

iron houses here. Corrugated like hunky

25:38

dorys. What? Must put them on

25:40

me next house and for all beer, Matt. It's

25:44

bleeding swaggering out here, isn't it? I'm sweating, belubus.

25:47

Haven't chafed this much of me chinos

25:49

since me J1 shardin'. I

25:51

suppose the limo rides out with a question. What? What?

25:54

And so another year, another paltry set

25:57

of excuses for sending gobshites around the

25:59

world wasting time. Thousands unless you truly

26:01

believe it's essential for Ireland's trade market

26:03

that Darrick Leary goes to Peru for

26:05

a weekend or Kieran O'Donnell

26:07

to Slovakia were no doubt. They're asking

26:10

the same thing you are right now

26:13

Who the hell is Kieran O'Donnell? I've forgotten

26:15

his name already anyway

26:18

48 countries 35 ministers at

26:20

Count Corla and an AG

26:24

The other hand rolling my

26:26

eyes inside a big mother's head
