@irelandamvmtv Send an aul’ and you’re sorted! Tommy and Muireann are joined by @Garron Noone and Karla K to discuss if voice notes are now the new norm #irelandam #ireland #funny #tv #television #voicenote #debate #messaging #discussion #irish #irishtiktok ♬ original sound - Ireland AM
He continued: "People need to stop sending them. I am sick of lsitening to a minute and a half of mostly people thinking about what they are going to say. Just type it out. I can go back to it, get the information I need and reply. If someone sends you a voice note that is over fifteen seconds you haven't a hope of remembering what is in and if you want to covey an emotion send a laughing face. Mine are always three seconds long."
Many in the comments have jumped to agree with the comedian, one user said: "People who send voice notes should have their phone taken from them."
Another user said: "Voice notes should be banned! Either type or call! Even worse, people listening to them on full volume."
