SUCH is the popularity of the RTÉ 2FM’s skit How to Speak Monaghanese, the Nob Nation crew have now released a third parody featuring the infamous Monaghan Man.

How to speak Monaghanese One and Two has gained a cult following throughout Monaghan and further afield.

In the Monaghan Linguaphone a number of well-known Monaghan phrases are translated into better-known English.

And now Monaghan Man has made it into another edition of Nob Nation in a surprise element to the Dublin 4 Linguaphone.

As Callan impersonates Kevin Myers interpreting D4 man Ryle O’Sullivan Nugent. Monaghan Man makes a rude entrance saying “Come ‘ere hi Myers, what routing are ya at the day?”

The genius behind the hilarious satire is Inniskeen man Oliver Callan. The Monaghan native was previously involved with the Gift Grub team at Today FM, but later moved to 2FM and scored a daily slot in The Gerry Ryan Show on 2FM.

In his Nob Nation skit show, Callan impersonates famous Irish personalities, with hilarious consequences.
