- Katie Boyle on Irish Banter v American Sincerity, Halloween's Irish Roots & Doing The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon
Stu and Marc are joined by comedian Katie Boyle. An Irishwoman who's been based in New York for over 10 years, Katie describes the how Irish banter and flirting could often be mistaken for meanness when on dates with overly-sincere New Yorkers more used to trauma dumping than a bit of craic. She explains how she worked up the ranks on the New York scene - producing her own specials before landing a slot on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (and the way she got the booker's attention that's unlikely to be replicable), how discussing abortion on Irish TV led to a rightwing Christian backlash online led by Conor McGregor, and why Halloween has it's (turnip) roots in Irish folklore.
