About this listen
This week on The Joe Irish Podcast (Episode 21), Joe and Sheree sit down with viral TikTok creators Danny Swanton and Jazzy (Josh Norton) for a wild, unfiltered conversation.
The lads break down how they built massive followings online, the chaos of TikTok fame, accents, alter egos, getting recognised in public, and trying to turn short-form content into long-term careers. From scabies horror stories and prison gigs to tattoo regrets, travel plans, comedy ambitions, and the reality of being “on” all the time — nothing is off limits.
Expect brutal honesty, Dublin humour, absolute nonsense, and plenty of laughs.
