Joe Rooney’s unforgettable turn as gurrier priest, Fr Damo, in Father Ted, forever sealed his reputation in Irish comedy. A stand-up comedian, actor, screenwriter, musician and podcaster, over the last 20 years Joe has performed everywhere from Moscow to Muscat, and all places in between, including the Edinburgh Fringe, Glastonbury, and Kansas City Irish Festival, as well as festivals around Ireland. On his Podarooney podcast he has interviewed Aidan Gillen, Shazia Mirza, and Sean Lock. He also co-hosts the Father Ted podcast, Talking Ted, alongside Patrick McDonnell.
