Two Concurrent Levels of Notoriety
- Blindboy enjoys online notoriety through podcasts and social media, but remains largely unknown to traditional media consumers.
- This divide between online and mainstream media is increasingly common, creating two separate spheres of notoriety.
The Celtic Tiger Interview
- Blindboy recounts a brief radio interview about the Celtic Tiger, which led to articles quoting his off-the-cuff remarks.
- This highlights how mainstream media amplifies even trivial statements made on their platforms, while ignoring online content.

- Mainstream media prioritizes content from its own platforms, even if less relevant than online discussions.
- This disconnect fails to reflect public interest and creates a skewed representation of culture.
