Who is Colum Tyrrell, the Irish comedian on Joe Rogan episode #2572?

Colum Tyrrell is an Irish stand-up who did about two years of comedy in Ireland, moved to the US in 2014 and lives in New Jersey. He told Joe Rogan that most of his audience found him through Legion of Skanks and Ari Shaffir's fans, not Irish viewers. He appeared to promote his special Bells and Whistles, filmed at New York Comedy Club and released on YouTube.

Tyrrell said a recent spot on Kill Tony brought more feedback than almost anything he had done.
Tyrrell has shows booked in Dublin, Limerick and Cork, plus weekend shows in Anchorage, Alaska.
Tyrrell decided he wanted to do comedy at 16 but did not learn that open mics existed until about six years later.
Tyrrell once heckled Jimmy Carr at a theatre in Ireland before he had ever done stand-up, and lost the exchange.
