In an episode titled “Intrapersonally Speaking” last April, Blindboy Chambers revealed that he had been diagnosed with autism, which helped one listener adapt to her recent ADHD diagnosis. She said that she was inspired by Chambers to be open about her experience and now regularly posts about it on TikTok. Mental health issues like these are still under-discussed in Irish society and media, but Chambers’ fans appreciate his candor. He receives thousands of social media messages about mental health, but he admits that he couldn’t handle those interactions in person. Chambers also talks about the economic climate that has infantilized his generation in other episodes. Ireland is currently facing a rental crisis due to a severe housing shortage, as Prime Minister Leo Varadkar stated last month.
