We might have our own version of Alan Partridge right here.
You might have noticed his face popping up on Twitter a lot in the last few days, as Twitter account @BigDirtyFry has exploded thanks to his hilarious skewering of Irish radio.
Referring to himself as “Eminem From 2002”, the radio personality (personalities?) presents a number of different shows, under a number of fantastic host names, including:
- Michael Mourning
- Michael Chatley
- Michael Girl
- Michael Drive
- Michael Drive again
- Michael Teen
Using all of the Michaels to take all of the mick out of some well-known radio stations and shows, we really, REALLY hope that somebody out there takes the initiative and actually gives this guy his own show, because we imagine once you check out his snippets below, you’ll absolutely be tuning in should he get his own on-air slot.
