These guys really set the bar for "true Irishman"

The Irish accent is a large contribution to the genesis of the Jamaican patois!!

And particularly from Counties Cork and Kerry in the very southwest where there is a continuum of accents running east to west which become noticeably different from each other even over a distance of just 30 or 40 km. These two come from Skibbereen, which is somewhere in the middle of this continuum, so your ears are right to recognise some similarity with Jamaican accents.

This interview is the stuff of legend and we still reference “podium pants” on a regular basis!

National treasures these two.

Great lads, natural honest and great fun to watch and listen! Well done boys enjoy the moment

I love these 2 more than I can say.

So WONDERFUL!♡

I’m splitting my sides at what sounded like ‘put on the podium pants’

They are completely adorble and unaffected. 🤣💕

Glad my grandad was from co. Mayo ... I understood every minute. All Irish (in Ireland) are this witty & brilliant

God I fucking love this accent it’s so beautiful

Their accent is similar to the Jamaican accent, which makes sense because many of the slave masters in Jamaica were Irish, from what I was told by my grandmother long ago. I'm originally from the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia and I've always noticed how the Jamaican accent and the Irish accent sounded a bit similar. As a result, I can understand most of what they're saying,as I have Jamaican relatives.

I haven’t a clue to what they said, but they are great. Congratulations guys!!!

Lol sometimes this sounds like how Guyanese speak

Cheers, Lads! Wots the craic?🍀💚🍀💚

I love their accent and I’m glad I can understand them.😆

As an American, I am baffled as to how so many people can’t understand them. I can understand it just as easily as someone from California.

Gutted they're missing out on the piss up, absolute chaps

False. First of all Jamaicans were brought over as slaves and there was Spanish, then british influence. They werent all taught english by one nun. Not even close. A few slaves being taught english by a nun isnt enough to influence the accent. This is not a fun fact. Its bullshit

Glenda "Hi lads, how're things?" "What's the craic?" "We're in Rio." "Yeah." "The background might looked superimposed but tis very real." "Tis yeah. That's all there." "Lads listen, Paul what has the last few hours been like for you?" "Ehm... I've been shooken up now to be honest since the race. Bit tired now and the legs are like jelly. But ehm... yeah I suppose we did a bit of celebrating, and did the podium thing and got to put on the podium pants (?) as well so that was quite nice. And ehm, saw the mother and the father and a few other people, took a few pictures and that. And then ehm... I had to go and do this doping control thing so I was there for an hour or two, trying to take a pee into a cup for them so ehh... I'm after about ten litres of water as well, so ehm... bit full up now to be honest. Gary's had great craic though, hasn't he?" "Yeah, he's been busy there and I was running around having a great time, signing photographs and autographs and taking pictures. Tis all well and good, you know? We'll be fairly tired now, we haven't had a bite to eat since ehh... since ehh... two hours--" "After the weigh-in." "After the weigh-in we had a bread roll with some Nutella. I'm fairly hungry now, but I believe they're on their way with some pizzas for us ... Ah, I suppose we haven't had much time to think about it. You know, it's been a bit of a circus since we finished the race. But ehm, ah y'know we're just taking it all in and trying to enjoy it the best we can at the minute." "And Paul, are you aware of what's been going on back home?" "I heard that, yeah. Gary got a Snapchat there earlier and they were roaring away mad or something ehm... But no I haven't a clue what's going on to be honest at home. I'd say there's mad excitement altogether." "Tis a pity we're missing the whole thing out here!" "Yeah! They're all in the pub at home and... Skibreen's after closing down and that on holiday or something... and we're missing it all."

The Irish slave myth is a well-known thing. Only Irish nationalists and the far right ever refer to it as real whereas nearly all Irish historians condemn it. Secondly while I might not have read every NY times article they are still a very well respected source of news and information. www.historyireland.com/volume-24/the-irish-in-the-anglo-caribbean-servants-or-slaves/

How are they talking without moving their mouths
