In the 1840s, hundreds of Irish soldiers joined the Saint Patrick's Battalion to help defend Mexico against the invading US army. They fought under Irish Captain John Riley and they marched under the green flag of Saint Patrick, with the harp and the shamrock and the Irish words Erin Go Bragh embroidered across it. “Ireland forever.” Today, the Saint Patrick's Battalion is still remembered in Mexico.This is the ninth episode of Stories of Resistance — a new podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange.

St. Patrick's Day has always been special to us, so it was particularly sweet six years ago tonight when the opening show for the 2018 season of “Route 60 Saturday Night” — the monthly musical variety bash for which The Flood was the house band — fell on March 17.To put a Celtic curl on the night, we dusted off some favorite songs from The Old Sod. As you'll see in the above video, we opened the show at the good ol' Route 60 Music Co. with one of the greatest sing-along in the Irish catalog — “The Wild Rover” — which we learned years ago from our heroes, The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem. Then 90 minutes later, we wrapped up the evening with one of the prettiest Irish tunes of all times. “Down By the Salley Gardens,” with lyrics by William Butler Yeats, has been in The Flood repertoire for 25 or 30 years; in fact, it was on our first album in 2001. But as you hear in the second half of the video, the tune had a beautiful rebirth with the harmonies that Michelle Hoge brought to it.The Indefatigable Mr. DobbsThat fun night brought back memories of another special St. Pat's. Seven years earlier, The Flood was chosen to launch the city's first “Party on the Patio” of 2011 at Heritage Station's gazebo downtown.In those day, fiddler Joe Dobbs was front and center any time the band was stoking its Irish fires. In the following video from the March 17, 2011, show, Joe tears it up with his "Miss McLeod's Reel" for the dancers on the patio below the bandstand:Ah, those McLeods and their reel! That tune also was a Flood favorite any time the extraordinary flutist Wendell Dobbs dropped in to jam with us. Here, from a winter 2009 session, Wendell and Joe made the then-new weekly Flood podcast with their duet:EncoreAnyway, the gazebo event went well. The city invited the band back the next year for a St. Pat encore, kicking off the 2012 "Party on the Patio” (or “Paddy on the Partio,” as Charlie dubbed it in a later email to his cousin Kathy).“The gig was super!” he wrote. “We had a good gathering, the weather cooperated, the band sounded great and everyone seemed to have fun.”The Mike Smith Connection Meanwhile, at the Flood jam sessions in those days, Joe also often shared Irish tunes with Flood buddy Mike Smith, a regular at those weekly parties. In this moment from a summer evening in 2011, Pamela Bowen's video captures Joe and Mike's lovely twin fiddling:About that tune, poet Patrick Kavanagh wrote the "On Raglan Road" in 1946 and it quickly became a beloved verse in his native Ireland. It didn't become internationally known, though, until years later when Kavanagh met The Dubliners' Luke Kelly, who set the poem to a traditional melody, "The Dawning of the Day." Joe's Favorite Irish Fiddle TuneHands down, Joe Dobbs' favorite Irish fiddle tune was one he often played with Mike, as we reported in this June 2009 podcast:“Whiskey Before Breakfast” already had been with us a long time. It was a half century ago, in fact, that Joe taught that tune to his Flood family. And we actually have the tape! Picture it. It was near St. Patrick's Day 1977, and Joe and Flood co-founder Roger Samples had been wood-shedding together throughout the long, cold winter of 1976-77.In spring, the two emerged from those winter nights with a whole slew of new duets; at the March 1977 Bowen Bash, they put them on display for us. Take a listen:In the decades to come, Joe would always have that happy tune ready whenever someone wanted to dance with us, as you can see here:“Star of the County Down”Oh, and at a different Bowen Bash, Joe taught us another Celtic classic. This time it was his unique rendering of a beautiful Irish aire. Here's that moment from an Autumn 1981 gathering:Happy St. Patrick's Day!So, enjoy St. Patrick's Day 2024. Erin Go Bragh, y'all!

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 17, 2023 is: Erin go bragh air-un-guh-BRAW phrase Erin go bragh is an Irish phrase that means “Ireland forever.” // The crowd proudly shouted “Erin go bragh” in celebration of their Irish heritage. See the entry > Examples: “This St. Patrick's Day, I will celebrate alone. ... I will fix a plate of corned beef and cabbage, buy a loaf of Irish soda bread and drink a mild beverage, raising a toast to family and love and to Ireland. It was not always ‘easy being green,' but it was worth it. Erin Go Bragh.” — Kathleen O'Neil, The San Diego Union-Tribune, 16 Mar. 2022 Did you know? March 17th is the feast day of the patron saint of Ireland, St. Patrick. In the United States, it is also the day of shamrocks, leprechauns, and green beer (and green everything else). Blue was once the color traditionally associated with St. Patrick, but the color green has several links to Ireland, including its use on Ireland's flag in the form of a stripe, its symbolism of Irish nationalism and the country's religious history, and its connection to Ireland's nickname, The Emerald Isle. On St. Patrick's Day, people turn to their dictionary to look up Erin go bragh, which means “Ireland forever.” The original Irish phrase was Erin go brách (or go bráth), which translates literally as “Ireland till doomsday.” It's an expression of loyalty and devotion that first appeared in English during the late 18th-century Irish rebellion against the British.

Erin Go Bragh—or go Bragh-less (free the nip!)—and Kiss Me, I'm Irish! Well, aren't we all Irish around St. Patrick's Day? Get in the mood with a little St. Paddy's Day Foreplay, The Bonobo Way on this lucky, lusty FDR, still making love through the March Madness. St. Paddy's is pretty sexy with all that kissing, drinking, pinching and more drinking—though the original "Patrick" was a celibate “saint” (no word on the size of his shillelagh)—and it's still Womens Month 2023, so we honor a great woman (and sex worker) Stormy Daniels. Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality! Stormy spanked tRump's rump (before sitting—briefly—on his little mushroom), and now she's spanking him with the law! Prosecutors are poised to indict Trumpty Dumpty for paying Stormy hush money. Will they do it this time? Or will Teflon Don slip through the hands of justice—as he has for crimes far beyond the Stormy Scandal—yet again? Speaking of "stormy," somehow we wind up in a tsunami of discussion about fish, smelling like fish (down there), mermaid sex (watch out for the scales) and how Starbucks' two-tailed mermaid is like Pr. Max's Filangieri family crest. Swimming along the atmospheric river of the Stormy theme, Stormy Rayn calls in for advice on how to have “rough sex” with her boyfriend, eliciting kink tips, scratching talk, choking warnings (it's very risky, so approach with caution, if at all!) and some surprise twists... The Ides of March was a bad day for Caesar, but it could be good for you, because it's Steak and a Blowjob Day! Have a juicy one... And in Censorship News: YouTube bots are still censoring us, and Elon Musky has pussy-phobia, having just censored the p-u-s-s-y in last week's “Pussy Cookie” show on Twitter. Speaking of censorship, stop censoring people's lives: Free Assange! Free Palestine!... Pop question: Why do we wear green on St. Patrick's Day? According to Celtic myth, wearing green acted as camouflage as you traipsed through the verdant forests of the Emerald Isle, making you invisible to leprechauns who, though magical, are kind of nasty. Like mini-Trump pussy-grabbers, they sneak up and nonconsensually pinch you if they can see you; that is, if you are not wearing green. Luckly, it's all a good excuse to party like a bonobo in St Paddy's green panties and leprechaun lingerie on our green-as-grass Love Train rolling along from the Capitalocene to the Bonobocene...

„ The Ashes” – przepiękna pieśń z „covidowej” płyty brytyjskiej grupy The Longest Johnes opowiada o roli jaką odgrywa muzyka korzeni, folk, w naszym życiu, o jednoczeniu, wspólnym przeżywaniu, pamięci. Napisana przez Robbiego Sattina jest również czymś więcej niż zwykłą balladą, stanowi swoisty manifest muzyczny. Autor kończy refren słowami: I'll tend to the flame; you can worship the ashes. Ja zadbam o ogień, ty możesz czcić popioły. Jest to parafraza sentencji przypisywanej Gustawowi Mahlerowi (choć inspiracją były słowa Tomasza More'a), która w przekładzie na polski brzmi ona „Tradycja to przekazywanie płomienia, a nie czczenie popiołów”. Innymi słowy kultywowanie tradycji nie powinno ograniczać się do kustoszowania, czy też prostego naśladownictwa, do tego ognia trzeba dokładać. Tradycja żyje w nas najpełniej, kiedy traktujemy ją jak tworzywo, rozwijamy, kształtujemy z niej nowe formy, nie zapominając o korzeniach. I z tym przesłaniem ballada w zasadzie opowiada również o sobie samej. Jest jak najbardziej współczesna ale słychać przecież w niej wpływy tradycji, choćby twórczości Dicka Gaughana, a jak dobrze użyć wyobraźni to można usłyszeć jak gdzieś w głębi popiołów czai się muzyczne wspomnienie jarmarku w Scarborough. Lubię takie podejście do muzyki folkowej, przecież jak mówił Ezra Pound wielki Amerykański międzywojenny poeta: „Tradycja to piękno, które chronimy, a nie więzy, które nas krępują.” Lubię, gdy nasze polskie zespoły folkowe, czerpiąc z tradycji wykorzystują nowoczesne środki wyrazu. I właśnie z dwoma grupami szczególnie bliskimi mym uszom, grającymi bardzo nowoczesną muzyką, osadzoną naprawdę głęboko w tradycji zabiorę Was na krótką podróż po najbliższej okolicy. Najpierw skoczymy na Kurpiowszczyznę. To kraina o wspaniałej tradycji muzycznej i wyjątkowo barwnej gwarze. Waleria Żarnochowa, wielka śpiewaczka ze wsi Dąbrowa wykonywała pośród wielu innych, zabawną piosnkę o ciężkim życiu starca, staroziny jak mówią Kurpie czy w zasadzie Kurpsie. Dziś zaśpiewa ja dla Was zespół Dagadana. To dwie szalone dziewczyny Daga Gregorowicz I Dana Vynnytska wspierane przez Mikołaja Pospieszalskiego i Bartosza Nazaruka. Grupa za nic mając ograniczenia stylistyczne brawurowo łączy współczesna muzykę taneczną, klubową czy jazz z polskim i ukraińskim folkiem. Mieszanka jest wybuchowa. Z Kurpiów przespacerujemy się na Mazowsze … a może Lubelszczyznę? Wstyd mi przyznać ale pewności nie mam, następna piosnka występowała prawdopodobnie tu i tam. Nie mamy niestety tak dostępnych tekstów dotyczących źródeł naszej muzyki jak w Irlandii czy krajach anglojęzycznych. Szkoda, może się to trochę zmieni, dzisiaj całkiem sporo młodych ludzi wykonuje tzw. badania terenowe. Starają się ocalić z naszego dziedzictwa muzycznego co się da. Kiedyś to opiszą i pewnie zdygitalizują. Pozostaje czekać. A czekać proponuję przy piosence otwierającej 2. album Kapeli ze Wsi Warszawa „Wiosna Ludów”. Płyta jest przez wielu uważana za polska folkową płytę wszechczasów (należę do tego grona). Tradycyjne instrumentarium, łączenie stylów, rozmach aranżacji i niesamowita energia, to znaki firmowe Warszawskiej formacji. A „Do ciebie Kasiuniu zawiera wszystkie jej zalety. Zaczyna się niespiesznie cymbałami, cichuteńko im kontrabas przygrywa, dochodzą bębny, robi się rytmicznie i ta trąbka…, ech co będę wam opiowiadał, posłuchajcie sami. Audycja zawiera utwory: „Scarborough Fair” (w tle) w wykonaniu Anny Comellas i Rosalindy Beall, muzyka: tradycyjna „Erin Go Bragh” w wykonaniu Dicka Gaughana, słowa i muzyka: tradycyjne „Scarborough Fair” w wykonaniu duetu Simon & Garfunkel, słowa i muzyka: tradycyjne „Jestem sobie starozina” w wykonaniu zespołu DAGADANA, słowa i muzyka: tradycyjne „Do ciebie Kasiuniu” w wykonaniu Kapeli ze wsi Warszawa, słowa i muzyka: tradycyjne Sail Ho
Happy St. Patrick's Day, friends!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! This episode was one of my favorites because I got to talk to a new dad, directly from Ireland. We discuss having kids during Covid, Irish traditions in Ireland and America, and a history lesson in the IRA. Erin Go Bragh!
Happy St. Paddy's day from Cass and Anthony. It will come as a shock to no one that we forgot to wear any green today, but the show was festive. We were surprised by some of the odd rules in place for athletes who will be playing in the NCAA tournament, and Anthony was VERY surprised by Cass' story of the weird thing that happened to her in an AirBNB. We talked about Jack White's freaky talent and tried to see if we could do what he does....spoiler alert: we couldn't. We did a very IRISH round of Can't Beat Cassiday and talked about weird and inappropriate tattoos we have encountered in our life. Click and listen, because there was much more on the show than we have time to mention here....and Erin Go Bragh! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Mexican-American war is a complicated conflict to discuss there's many moving parts in diplomacy, military, and culture.All under the shadow of a great revolutionary movement sweeping through the world today, Jacob is going to guide us through the history of a group of Roman Catholic, Irish, us soldiers who changed alliances and allegiances from the U S to Mexico. the San Patricio, the sink Patrick battalion. Look out for our next step of sewed where we'll explore the 1999.Featuring the sand Patrice Leo's one man's hero. You don't want to miss either one of these [00:01:00] episodes. Now, Jacob, how did you become interested in the Mexican American war? And then this kind of interesting sub part of the conflict, the San Patricio. I became interested in the Mexican American war. When I was wrapping up a research project that I was doing in college, my junior year, it was about my home state of Indiana during the war of 1812.And then when I started exploring the legacy of these people who were involved in 1812, and then later on with the Texas revolution and the Seminole wars, you see a lot of similar names. And then you discover really, I, it was a deep dive into this conflict that in terms of the public zeitgeists, everybody knows the civil war.Everyone knows the revolution. Everyone knows world war II. Very few people actually either know of the Mexican-American war [00:02:00] or its importance in terms of the story of not. American history, but also Latin American history with Mexico and how we have our border, our international border between the America and Mexico to this very day, it was politically consequential.While at the same time, I was also, I discovered this group, this military group, the sound, but three CEO battalion. It just stuck out like a sore thumb. Because it kind of breaks that good versus evil us and them narrative that we see with a lot of those other wars and this particular group, you begin learning about these people, their story, and they're beginning to end, and it really surprises you.And it creates that gray area, which is a very true reality in the course of. [00:03:00] Our, our history that's still ongoing, but also in military history that it really does show that the gray areas. Is like a fog of war it's confusing and it's not easy to decipher. Yeah. I, uh, I had been doing a little bit of research into this general time period in European history for the history of the papacy podcast.And. I think you get commonly. And especially in my education stuff that was going on in Europe at this time, really didn't have a lot of impact on things that were going on in north America, but there was a ton. And I think that it feeds into this with the, the Irish and the Catholics. And that might be a good place to really start off with is what was changing in the demographics of the United States.During this time, because of some things that were going on in Europe at the time. Some of the things that [00:04:00] were going on at that particular time. At first off, we kind of have to start with what was going on in Ireland at that time, because we think of Ireland today as either geographically, the, you know, the classic Emerald aisle or politically Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, which is still a part of the United States.For at least centuries. Now we know that Ireland and the Irish people were under the colonial rule of England. Um, and throughout knew there were numerous attempts prior to the 20th century and world war II with the rise of the Irish Republican army to either declare independence or serve as an opening to a foreign invasion against the Britain.There was a rebellion in Ireland in 1798. There was, uh, an Irish Legion that was created by Napoleon. There was the young Ireland [00:05:00] movement in the 1830s, the Fenny and rising in the 1860s to 1880s, both in the United Kingdom and in parts of Canada. And then the creation of the Irish Republican brotherhood at the turn of the century, that would then become Michael Collins is Irish, Republican army that we know today.I saw a little back toilet. It blew my mind that Ireland lost. I think it was about half of its population between starvation. I immigration. And it still hasn't caught up to that population of the 1840s, 1830s, all the way up to this day in 2022. No, it hasn't because the great Irish famine or the Irish potato famine, as we know it in today's time, they, it really was a dire circumstance for these people.Where they were resorting to eating bugs, eating grass, eating [00:06:00] roots of plants, just to survive from one day to another. And there was literally no any type of foreign aid that we see in today's time. Whenever a international famine takes place, the Irish were really out on their own. And rather than starving to death in their Homeland, they had no choice to say we need, we need to find a living somewhere else.And that's why you see this long wave of immigration, not just. Into the United States, but also into Canada and then other parts of the British empire in London, parts of South Africa, India. Uh, but for the most part, north America is the largest hub along with other. Um, European minority groups. The next step in this is the Mexican American war.Now I think back to my high school, into college American history, [00:07:00] the, the Mexican American Moore's almost treated. Thing. It's not in any of those contexts. I didn't get a huge education on the Mexican American war, but it was mostly set up as sort of a prequel to the civil war. And you know, this is where the farm league of the young Lee, a younger.They make their mark and then a couple of deck, a decade or so later, the real show is the civil war. Before we talk a little about the Mexican-American war and where this conflict started, what was the sort of a history historiography you learn? There wasn't really much of a historiography that I learned.
St. Patrick's Day, a little early; Win Jackman's Stuff; new TV shows.
St. Patrick's Day is just one week away. In order to prepare for the upcoming festivities, we take a look at why Americans have enthusiastically embraced this holiday that originated in one small European country. Speaking of preparation, I walk you through how to cook a traditional Irish dinner that is ridiculously easy to make, delicious to consume and would make the perfect celebration meal for the big day.

The comical history of Rosin the Bow. My failure as a podcaster. What on Middle-earth is a “smial”? A Doctor Whovian Spotlight on Matt Hughes. Welcome to the Pub Songs Podcast, the Virtual Public House for Celtic Geek culture. I am your Guide. My name is Marc Gunn. Today’s show is brought to you by my Gunn Runners on Patreon. Subscribe to the podcast and download free music when you sign up at PubSong.com. WHO'S PLAYING IN THE PUB TODAY 00:27 - SONG: “Rosin the Bow” from Happy Songs of Death What does “Rosin the Bow” mean? Rosin is a solid form of resin that's obtained from pines and other conifers. ... Used by cellists, violinists, and other string musicians, rosin helps create friction between the bow hair and strings. Essentially, rosin helps the bow grip the strings and produce sound. That’s from The Vault at Music & The Arts. The song was popularized in America in the 19th century. Though it probably had British or Irish origins according to Wikipedia. The most interesting fact was that the music for the song was used by several US presidential campaigns, including for William Henry Harrison ("The Hero of Tippecanoe"),[3] Henry Clay ("Harry, the Honest and True") and Abraham Lincoln ("Lincoln and Liberty"). 3:02 - WELCOME -- Post a review in Apple Podcasts.

You can download or stream it most everywhere online. -- Short Story of what’s new: My failure as a podcaster. - CD SPONSOR: SCOTTISH SONGS OF DRINKING & REBELLION Hi. I’m Marc Gunn. You may remember me from such kilted bands as the Brobdingnagian Bards, Kilted Kings, and Marc Gunn. Ye know. Me. But perhaps, you don’t know my music. But you may know some fine Scottish Songs of Drinking & Rebellion. That may be a rip off title from a Clancy Brothers album, Irish Songs of Drinking & Rebellion. But the music is pure Scottish fun. You’ll get 17 Scottish songs that will make you want to drink or rise up against England. You’ll hear songs I learned from Ed Miller, The Corries, Widening Gyre (you probably have never heard of that band), and even Outlander… Well, sort of. There are five songs by Robert Burns, including “MacPherson’s Farewell”, “Scots Wha Hae”, “Ye Jacobites by Name”, “A Man’s A Man for A’ That”, and the clean love song version of “Green Grow the Rashes”. There’s the unofficial national anthem of Scotland, “Flower of Scotland”, by The Corries. The “Skye Boat Song” was a fantastic traditional Scottish song even before the lyrics were modified for the Outlander TV show. There’s the great drinking ballad, “Jock Stuart”. And let’s not forget Hugh S. Roberton’s incredible “Mingulay Boat Song” that is given a Louisiana gospel edge. You’ll find it all on Marc Gunn’s Scottish Songs of Drinking & Rebellion. Get it at CelticMusic.org. Now let’s go geek with a song that’s not from that CD... 9:09 - GEEK SONG: “The Smial or the Tree” from Sci Fi Drinking Songs "In a hole in the ground there lived a Hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole and that means comfort." - The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien What on Middle-earth is a “smial”? Well the Tolkien Gateway has the answer. “Smials were the hobbit-holes tunneled into earth mounds and hills. For generations the Hobbits dug into the earth to live. By the later Third Age the poorest Hobbits still went on living in burrows of the most primitive kind with only one window or none. For the most well-to-do hobbits, smials were luxurious versions of those primitive diggings of old. Their tunnels had rounded walls and branched to other rooms. Smials included Bag End and the smials along Bagshot Row of Hobbiton, the Great Smials of Tuckborough and Brandy Hall. The latter two were large enough to have ample room for a hundred Hobbits. When suitable sites for these large and ramifying tunnels were not everywhere to be found, many Hobbits lived in wood, brick or stone houses. This was the case with some muddy regions of the Eastfarthing, such as the Marish. "Smial" is a term used by Tolkien fans to refer to divisions of Tolkien Societies. Read more about it at http://tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Smials 11:25 - CELTIC GEEK SPOTLIGHT: Matt Hughes I've seen Matt Hughes' name for about as long as I can remember. He was an integral part of the Brobdingnagian Bards' community early on. Which is where I first found him. He was also one of the first people to cover a song I wrote. So you know that's gonna make me happy. Hehe He also helped me write “Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster” and performed on “Scouring the Shire” and “Bilbo’s Farewell” (he yelled ‘Proudfeet’) on my CD Don’t Go Drinking With Hobbits. When I asked Matt about being a guest in the Celtic Geek Spotlight, he made some silly reference to the Weeping Angels from Doctor Who. That gave me the idea to have Matt answer all of my questions… without blinking. As soon as he does that, we will be forced to move to a different time period with a new question. Welcome Matt, can you tell me what inspires you with music? Why are you still making music today? What do you have planned for the future? Oh and do it all without blinking… MATT RESPONDS Whoa. It’s 2004. Hey my voice sounds younger. What are you doing at this time in your life, Matt? THIS TIME IN LIFE Pirate Accent: Curses, Matthew! That was just getting good. Avast. Suppose it’s time for ye to tell me about your pirate lifestyle. How did you become a pirate? What songs inspired your travel back in time? PIRATE LIFE Thank you Matt Hughes, wherever you are in time. I appreciate you taking the time to chat with me. Now obviously, it sucks that we lost some of the stories you were telling thanks to that darned Weeping Angel time travel business.

Heather and Mike are joined by stalwart friend of the pod Brian Melanson (The Cobcast) as well as our dear friends Jewelz Sherratt (Solo Sexx) and Dave Klotz (cool and nice guy) to dive into the back catalog of the Black Eyed Peas one drink at a time. That's right, we listen to not one, not two, not three, but FOUR BEP and BEP-adjacent albums for the first ever MAKE IT STOP POWER HOUR. With only 60 seconds to talk about each song and a rapidly skyrocketing blood alcohol content, Heather, Mike and their guests have to race against the clock to get their "witty" "banter" in before the buzzer. It's...well, it sure is something alright. So pull up a stool and cry some drunken tears of laughter into your green beer. Erin Go Bragh you bastards.

The music you play always inspires, and I’ve discovered new favorites thanks to you. I’ve even rediscovered artists I lost track of over the years. Keep up the good work! Thank you, slainté!" Gerry Corr emailed: "I am originally from Belfast and was a Step dancer in my early youth and stopped as I did not want to wear a kilt walking down Falls Road; I went on to become an accomplished athlete in multiple sports, primarily Hurling. Actually went to school with Seamus Kennedy who you have featured on some shows. In 1980 I moved to US and I now live in Somersworth NH, next to Dover for past 25+ years. Dover is where Tommy Makem made his home and whose family are friends of ours– people from the textile mills in Armagh were some of the founders of the City. It was here where I came back to the music and started dancing again at age of 50 and picked up a mandolin that I love to play, albeit not great, but have fun One of my daughters is married and lives in Dartmouth Nova Scotia and I fell in love with the NS Scottish/Irish music and song during my visits, she is an accomplished artist and did artwork for an album I made with a group called An Banna Ceoil several years ago; we don’t play out anymore but are still playing “house” music Came across your podcast through iTunes a couple of months ago and will now be a regular; love the live sessions from the pubs Keep the music alive Marc, it keeps us young in mind and heart. BTW I was able to download the Free Music – very easy process – just have to get them onto my phone in iTunes to carry them with me – if you have any advice on this would love to hear it."

It's another lonely episode without Pete. We're still not sure if he was eaten by a bear or not, but we hope he's well wherever he might be. In the meantime, we put together what we hope is an enjoyable and informative episode with information on Yaesu System Fusion, bluetooth configuration in Linux, the LXLE [...]
Much like their Irish ancestors Matt-Man and Jayman are gentle when stroked, fierce when provoked. Well, there's gonna be a whole lot of stroking of funny bones this week on IWS and maybe just a bit of provoking too. It's gonna be a HUGE St. Patrick's Day Extravaganza full of love, laughter and music. We'll hear from our Canadian correspondent Jamie and find out how they're celebrating north of the border as well as Poetry 'n Such with Paul Piatt, some Mild Cheddar from Bobby Kraft, a Schmoop Update, Aunt Jackie will once again rock the house and who knows what else! All this and YOUR CALLS!
SavageTechman and PalacePrincess are back for a LIVE simulcast of the 2013 Saint Patrick's Day Parade from beautiful Savannah, Georgia! We walked the whole length of the parade route along with fellow members of Armstrong Atlantic State University (AASU). It was gorgeous weather, nice and warm, and everyone was Irish for a day. We hope you enjoy just a sampling of some of the sounds of the parade. Erin Go Bragh! SavageTechman 3-17-13
Well folks, it's that time of year again-green beer and corned beef for all!...If you're not exactly thrilled with the prospect of sporting some seriously stained teeth and boiling meat and potatoes, don't worry-you're not alone. While we are all big fans of the Irish-and don't necessarily mind the once-a-year corned beef and cabbage dish-we can certainly come up with something a little more appealing to celebrate with.Something appealing, something green....hmmmm.....Well, for starters, as soon as March rolls around you should pretty much know that winter is coming to a close. This weekend marks the "spring forward" in daylight savings time and the winter chill is finally starting to wear off.Birds all across the New York metro area have been chirping.Fortunately, the coming of spring means a whole new season of delicious vegetables and herbs to choose from. Our favorite green this month is the artichoke. Delicious and versatile, this veggie is truly one of nature's gifts to us-and March is one of the best times to buy it. If you've never prepared an artichoke, the task may seem a little daunting. Please don't fear it-the pay out is amazing. There are a number of great websites out there to help you with the basic preparation of an artichoke. We love the Becks and Posh blog for the breakdown. And, after you work on technique a bit and come to realize that you can never live without this particular vegetable again, you will be ready for our Artichoke Dip Recipe. It is a classic.Although the dip uses canned artichoke hearts, you will need to prepare at least 2-4 actual artichokes, so that you can serve the leaves. If you live in the New York metro area, visit Fresh Direct to get both tasty canned hearts, and fresh produce. And of course, if you're feeling adventurous, and you have some time on your hands, feel free to skip the can and go for the real thing!Have fun bragging to your friends this holiday about who's really the MOST green this year!Erin Go Bragh!Artichoke DipWe thought it would be fun to post the video for you this week. No going back and forth between the website and the blog!
