SEAN FINEGAN, SEAN Flanagan and Conor McKenna are better known by their stage names of Foil, Arms and Hog. They met in college and have been touring for the last 8 years.
They’re currently touring their show ‘Oink’ around Ireland and the UK which is comprised of sketches you don’t see on their YouTube channel.
The comedy trio write their all of their own comedy sketches and release a new sketch on their Youtube channel every Thursday.
Here are 12 of the best.
1. WTF Is Brexit?
Look Brexit is complicated and even explaining what it is is bloody exhausting.
2. An Englishman Plays Risk
Just a casual history lesson in how many countries the British have invaded over time. The Russian accent is particularly good.
3. US Immigation
‘American was founded in?’ ‘Dubious circumstances surrounding land claims for indigenous people’
4. The Ryanair Song
The sketch may be 5 years old but it still sums up how it feels to fly on Ryanair. Are you quite sure you don’t want travel insurance?
5. A Party With the Days of the Week
To quote the Boomtown Rats ‘I don’t like Mondays’ unless it’s a bank holiday of course.
6. Never Take An Irish Person Literally
Having been abroad several times I can confirm that Irish people talk too fast and half of what we say doesn’t actually make sense.
7. How To Be Late for Work
Some sound advice for anyone who may have drank too much the night before or for those of you who are consistently late for everything.
8. Teaching Computers to Parents
iPads, iPhones, smart phones. Teaching parents and grandparents to use technology can be hard at the best of times and it’s summed up pretty well here.
9. Working for Free
‘We can pay you in exposure’. Exposure won’t buy me food. NEXT.
10. The Family Holiday
Have you ever tried going on holiday with your parents? The mad dash to unplug everything except the fridge because you know, we really trust the fridge. Also the sandwiches.
11. Learning to Drive With Your Parents
Any of us who has learnt to drive with their parents know how incredibly stressful it is. If your mother/father could brake for you, they would. It’s not very confidence boosting though is it?
12. An Irish Intervention
How do you tackle our nation’s problem with drinking? You make fun of it of course by replacing alcohol with water. Possible the best sketch of the lot.
