Johnny B hosts The 2 Johnnies podcast alongside Johnny McMahon, and it's been running since 2018. This year, they released two episodes that went viral as they exposed a so-called 'GAA Catfish' - a woman who used a fake profile to enter into online relationships with several GAA players and Johnny B himself. However, after several failed meet-ups, they dug deeper into the story they realised that the woman they were chatting to was not who she claimed to be.
Speaking on the podcast, Johnny B said that they will never reveal the true identity of the GAA Catfish, or any of the men she duped.
He said: "We're never going to reveal the identity of anyone that’s connected to this story. All we can hope is that this catfishing stops and anyone who is tempted to do something realises how wrong that is.
"And also there was nothing illegal in this, there's nobody who has been asked for money or tried to be scammed from these accounts. We need to state that but look, these people have been affected by this, their lives have been affected and it needs to stop."
