It was the second year of the Corona pandemic and Liam and Micheál were joining the show via video chat. Here comes your little discussion on how to pronounce Micheál's name correctly:  In March 2021, Micheál and Liam visited the Graham Norton Show, and discussed the pronunciation of Micheál's name. Liam explained that he promounces the name differently than his son: "I use the pronunciation of my son's name as 'my-kall', explained Liam to Graham Norton.
