Well-known influencers Ellie Kelly and Charleen Murphy joined Tipperary's 2 Johnnies and leaves fans shocked. 

The influencers joined the pair in an episode of The 2 Johnnies Podcast and Ellie Kelly mistakenly took Thurles to be a county and not part of Tipperary. 

Cahir man Johnny B asked the pair if they have "been to Tipperary?", Charleen and Ellie look at one another confused before Charleen says: "Oh we went to Thurles."

Johnny B follows up: "What county is Thurles in?", before Ellie repsonds: "Oh I don't know, is it near Tipperary? Is Thurles a county?"

As Roscrea's Johnny Smacks holds his hands to his head in disbelief, Ellie says: "My mam and dad are going to kill me, they are from Limerick so I should know that area."

Johnny B said: "There are lads in tractors pulling their hair out listening to this now", while Charleen remarks: "Sorry tractor men."

Fans were in disbelief in the comments of the above Instagram post, one user said: "Dear Jesus."

Another user said: "Stay in school kids."

The duo are well-known for their successful GoLoud podcast, Hold My Drink which sees the girls chat about girlhood and everything inbetween.
