We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.
In 2023, we’re going on a Celtic Invasion of County Mayo in Ireland. We’re gonna explore the area and get to know Grace O’Malley, the Pirate Queen. Learn more about the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/

brennan donnelly replied to the question of what he's doing while listening: "Everything - from working to gardening to riding in my car." On St Patrick's Day he planned to be "cooking Salmon for friends than having a session"
Jeremy King of Poitin said: "Hey Marc, I'm off to Vienna this St Pat's weekend - I'm sure there are one or two Irish pubs there. But really I'm going for a concert of film music by Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra and strolling around the beautiful old city...."
Anne emailed: "I most often listen while I’m driving. On St. Patrick’s Day I’ll eat out for a special Irish meal."
Gary Randolph said: "I’m doing a storytelling performance for St. Patrick’s Day."
Connie Kiefiuk emailed: "I am finishing an embroidery project while listening to the podcast. For St. Patrick's day cooking a traditional corned beef, cabbage, carrots, onion and potatoes meal. I am eating my homemade dinner with a glass (or two) of Guinness Stout wearing my green and watching "The Quiet Man" movie. Love your podcasts. I'm a newbie, discovered your program this past summer."
Shel O'Toole emailed: "Dear Marc, Thanks for sending out this song on ANZAC day. The words of the returned soldier M Edgerley would be powerful enough on their own but when presented by the wonderful voices of Jonny Dyer and Vicki Swan and their musical accompaniment they are deeply felt. I was moved to tears.
I tend to avoid ANZAC Day as it seems to have become a promotion of war rather than a remembrance of the horrors and loss. This song took me back to when I was a child and the purpose of ANZAC day was to acknowledge the futility and ongoing impact of war.
This Aussie thanks you. Regards"
Brian McReynolds sent a picture: "So on my (local) travels, I wore my podcast shirt with my kilt while touring the B Reactor on the Hanford Nuclear Site in Washington State. It was well received by a tour guide and one of the people on the tour. Love your podcast and everything you do for the artists. ''
