People were very impressed with Blindboy’s interview with Tommy Tiernan

Blindboy Boatclub, from the Rubberbandits, joined Tommy Tiernan on his show last night, and once again has been highly praised for what he had to say.

They touched on topics of mental health, his hometown of Limerick and the recession. The format of The Tommy Tiernan Show is quite different to other chat shows because Tommy is unaware of who is going to interview and therefore has no questions or preparations done. This type of set up means it could be a disaster, but somehow Tommy always manages to knock it out of the park. And, with a guest like Blindboy, there was only one way this could go and fans all agreed he was incredible.

Wondering where the plastic bag idea came from? When Blindboy @Rubberbandits saw the percentage of men under 30 who followed him on social media he wanted to find a way to talk mental health and not be intimidating. The #TommyTiernan Show is on now. pic.twitter.com/UVn7Hv1MQY

Here's what they had to say:

#BlindBoyBoatClub on #TommyTiernanshow is so articulate and clued in. Always Speaks so well, and comes across as a hugely compassionate individual ???

Blindboy is spot on about mental health. Highly intelligent, if only politicians had his level of intellect #tommytiernanshow
