Pat Graces Famous Fried Chicken - Blindboy

Post Reply New Topic

This is the only podcast episode I've ever thought to hear more than once. It supposed to be about the relationship between KFC and Pat Graces Famous Fried Chicken in Limerick, Ireland. To me, the actual story isn't the attraction. It's the guy, what he thinks it's important to talk about, his descriptions, and the details he finds important to cover. It just makes me laugh. I'm here thinking, "There is something up with this guy." Interestingly, I found him on Wikipedia, and it states that he was diagnosed as autistic. That makes total sense to me.

Below is the link if you interested in hearing this work of art. Beware, the guy doesn't get to the point to a while. First, he has to cover a whole bunch of other stuff that he has been obviously obsessing and upset about, but I find it funny. There also isn't a punchline, surprise twist, or impressive info. I find that the spectacle is the guy's himself, particularly his perspective. It's so good that I can't tell if he's joking or serious.

Thanks for reminding me about Blindboy. I used to listen to his podcast alot. It's excellent.

You're welcome, and thank you too! Despite looking up his Wikipedia page, I didn't consider looking at the rest of his podcast. I just checked it out thanks to your post, and the titles are a riot. I really like this guy so far.

Some Titles
- My mental health plan for 2025
- In Defence of licking dirt off of a window
- Birdshit funded the 1916 Rising, with Manchán Magan
- How I humiliated myself in a Canteen full of Accountants
- Quantum Physics in Irish Mythology

I'm still laughing...in part cause I know I'm gonna laugh my butt off while listening to these. I love it.

I heard the How I Humiliated Myself in a Canteen Full of Accountants podcast on the way to Costco and back, and I was right. I was laughing so much on the way there. This one in particular is about being autistic, and he does it with such authenticity that it's what people call refreshing (not the Gatorade kind, but the kind that comes when something gives you a sense of spiritual relief). I'm still getting bouts of laughter.

Edit: If someone listens to that particular podcast, can you let me know? I would like someone to laugh with.
