Pubs are screening parliamentary hearings featuring Ireland's highest-paid broadcaster, Ryan Tubridy.
Pubs across the country are planning to show the televised meetings as the population hears directly from the chat show host for the first time.
"There are very few shared moments in national culture now," says Brian Foley from the Vintners' Federation, a trade body representing thousands of pubs. Mr Foley says customers have been "glued to the story", joking that the levels of interest in the country are similar to 1979, when the Pope visited.
