So much love for Matt Damon
I think we speak on behalf of everybody in Ireland right now when we say Matt Damon is just the soundest guy.
The movie star has been quarantining in Dalkey since the pandemic began and chose to give SPIN 1038 his only interview.
After hearing our chat with the star, many took to Twitter to gush over how much of a gent Matt was!
Damon shared his love for Ireland and his admiration for our Taoiseach, Leo Varadkar's, work amid the pandemic.
He spoke about what was in that SuperValu bag and laughed when asked if it was a big bag of cans!
The actor even helped Fully Charged's Graham and Nathan surprise one of his biggest fans - frontline worker Anaise.
Damon also opened about his daughter's coronavirus diagnosis and the impact the pandemic has had on his life.
And he told the boys that he'll go for a drink with them when all this is over.
Interviews don't really get any better than that, do they?
Listeners have taken to Twitter to react to the interview and it's safe to say, they were massively impressed.
One user tweeted, 'Great interview, Matt Damon is one of our own now.'
While another said, 'I for one, welcome our new Matt Damon overlord.'
