Why are we Irish so reluctant to support other Irish Youtubers?

    O'Doherty at least has some shred of self-awareness.

    Yer man has a 105 minute video of him talking to Justin Barrett.

    No-one has ever spent nearly two hours talking to Barrett, primarily because the man is a absolute headbanger.

    I'd manage about 20 minutes with him... if only to remind myself what a complete fruitcake he is.

    Seán from Jacksepticeye is a lovely guy and I sub to him because I went to college with him and am glad to see him do well! He can be tough to listen to though with the shouting.

    Another channel I found is PotatoMcWhiskey and he does a lot of "let's plays." He is more quiet and relaxed but has that American twang that is inflicting our beautiful accent.

    The SacconeJolys do well for themselves but I can see how they are a required taste.

    I'd RiyadhK still on YouTube?

    I only watch traveller call-out videos on YouTube.

    They’re so funny.

    I think I'd manage 5. After 20 I'd be screaming incoherently at the screen.

    Im a big fan of Nicholas Moran aka "the Chieftan" but im a bit of a history nerd (at the same time who doesn't find tanks interesting?). I also think viper Higgins world news can me good laugh as are Foyle Arms and Hog sketches. Martins life and sminky shorts animations were so dreadfully bad they were actually good, but strictly for culchies.

    Not a fan of Computing Forever, think hes a bit of a populist tit and just a Irish clone of Sargon of Akkad. Hate the fake american twang he adopts also . Give me Stephan Moleneaux any day (Hes originally from Athlone apparently). Dont like the "shouty" overblown style of jacksepticeye or leather jacket guy.

    Doesn't matter if they are Irish of not. I watch what I think is interesting.

    Why would anyone support any youtubers at all let alone Irish ones? They're youtubers, not rockstars.

    Don't get how this is a thing??

    Zoella.

    A college classmate of mine is a youtuber, which was the first time I discovered it could be an actual career choice beyond some wannabe nobody having a rant to camera and trying to get "discovered".

    I was going to mention the SacconeJolys and RiyadhK(he has done some tv work for the BBC recently). There is Melanie Murphy too, she has half a million subs and has released a book. Chloe Boucher has half a million subs too.

    Sure they don't have millions and millions of subscribers but they aren't doing badly for themselves either.
