“Colm is a total professional to work with and a fantastic MC/host. He can control a room while keeping the crowd laughing, a real skill in itself! Having worked with Colm for the last two years (2018/19), the feedback from guests at our event has been 100% positive, with many remarking he is the funniest host/MC they have ever experienced.”
-Una Fitzpatrick, Director Technology Ireland.\
“O’Regan is witty (in all senses of the word), clever, playful and very likeable. He makes some important points about the world we live in. Ultimately, though, he remembers what comedy is supposed to do, above and beyond all else: making us laugh with lots of good, funny gags.”
-Irish Independent on national radio show Colm O’Regan Wants a Word.
‘Warm-spirited, funny, dark when it needs to be, and – most importantly – underwritten by a scalpel-sharp ear for how Irish people really speak…O’Regan never gets it wrong’
-Sunday Business Post on Colm’s novel Ann Devine Ready for Her Close Up
