Long interviews leave me chord to tears

Brendan's chats are a bit of a drag

- BILLY Scanlan billy.scanlan@thestar.ie

THE first rule of the Brendan O'Connor Show drinking game is there's only one rule for the Brendan O'Connor drinking game.

It's this: Every time Brendan says, “That interview really seems to have struck a chord, we're getting lots of messages in...” have a drink.

The rest's up to you. If listening live, 11am is an early start so you may want to line your stomach with milk before you start, maybe some corn flakes too.

Take into account Brendan's interviews can drag on a bit.

So even with an 11am start you might not actually have to drink anything until around 11.50am.

And that's almost noon so the toothpaste shouldn't interfere with the taste of your tipple of choice at that point.
