Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Iran Optimism Clay and Buck argue that Democrats are struggling to oppose a mission widely seen as successful, particularly as oil markets stabilize and fears of global escalation fade. They also address speculation within a small subset of Trump supporters suggesting foreign influence over U.S. strategy, strongly rejecting the idea that Trump acts under pressure from any other nation. Buck shares insider perspective from his CIA Counterterrorism Center background, responding to the resignation of Joe Kent from the National Counterterrorism Center and offering blunt criticism of NCTC’s role within the intelligence community. The hosts emphasize Trump’s independence and his decades-long public record advocating a tougher stance toward the Iranian regime. Midway through the hour, the discussion turns to Cuba, where a nationwide blackout has plunged the island into darkness following the U.S. cutoff of Venezuelan oil shipments. Clay and Buck highlight how Cuba’s collapse, combined with Venezuela’s political shift and Iran’s military devastation, represents a historic weakening of three long-standing U.S. adversaries—an alignment the hosts compare to the geopolitical shift following the fall of the Berlin Wall. They also speculate on the enormous economic potential of a post-Communist Cuba, from tourism to restored American property claims. Saint Patrick's Day Clay and Buck celebrate St. Patrick’s Day while diving into major global stories unfolding in real time. The hour opens with a lively debate about parades, bagpipes, Irish heritage, and the quirks of genealogy—including a humorous exchange about green eyes, red hair, and whether those traits are uniquely Celtic. From ancestry talk to the Irish president’s St. Patrick’s Day message promoting globalism and mass migration, the hosts critique Ireland’s political direction and draw parallels to broader Western demographic decline, using Ireland’s dropping fertility rate as an example of why European governments have turned to large‑scale immigration. Iran Prosperity Project An interview featuring Shervin Pishevar, advisor to the Iran Prosperity Project, who outlines what he calls a “historic moment” inside Iran as citizens cheer U.S. drone strikes targeting the Basij militia. He describes Iranians celebrating the “precision liberation campaign,” blasting drone sounds from speakers to intimidate regime forces and secretly reporting Basij locations to help accelerate the fall of the Islamic Republic. Pishevar frames the ongoing conflict as the world’s first AI‑powered war, warning that if rogue states like Iran, Russia, or China gain access to similar autonomous drone or biotechnological capabilities, global security could be endangered. The discussion turns toward the Iranian people’s desire for democracy, the economic devastation inflicted by 47 years of theocratic rule, and the Iran Prosperity Project’s detailed 100‑day plan for a national referendum once the regime collapses. Pishevar argues that a free Iran could unlock more than a trillion dollars in trade with the United States and spark an economic boom comparable to Europe after World War II. He also emphasizes the critical role of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and the Iranian diaspora who view this moment as a turning point after decades of oppression. Clay and Buck press Pishevar on regional dynamics—including how the rapid modernization of Gulf nations like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE stands in sharp contrast to Iran’s economic decay—and on what percentage of Iranians support regime overthrow. Pishevar asserts that the vast majority oppose the government and view the Trump‑led military campaign as liberation rather than intervention. He praises the killing of figures like Larijani and other top operatives of the IRGC, calling it a decisive blow against what he describes as a “mafia state.” Meet the Other Clay Shifting back to U.S. politics, Clay and Buck welcome Lieutenant Colonel Clay Fuller, Republican nominee for Georgia’s 14th congressional district—the seat formerly held by Marjorie Taylor Greene. Fuller discusses the April 7th special election, warns of Democrats attempting to quietly slip into power during low‑turnout contests, and stresses the urgency of voter mobilization in a district central to the national battle for control of Congress. He outlines his strong support for President Trump’s Iran strategy, his belief in deterring Iran’s military capabilities, and the importance of Georgia’s upcoming primary and general elections, where Senate and gubernatorial races will also dominate national attention.

 It's St. Patrick's day this week. A day that commemorates the Saint and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. It celebrates the Irish  luck that people feel because of the occasion. And while many of us count our blessings, and have moments of feeling lucky, there are those who seem absolutely cursed. Some people just can't catch a break, and suffer through with a string of terrible luck. Is it just a coincidence? Or was something done to anger the spirits? Either way when death comes knocking, you better hope your luck hasn't run out.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Sauce has a story from his garage, Hawk celebrates St. Patrick's Day with some old Irish adages

For many people, Saint Patrick’s Day is associated with green clothing, shamrocks, and festive celebrations. Yet behind the cultural traditions is the powerful story of a man whose life was transformed by God and used to share the gospel with an entire nation. Patrick was born in the late fourth century in Roman Britain. As a teenager, he was kidnapped by Irish raiders and taken to Ireland as a slave. During his years of captivity, Patrick turned to God in prayer and grew deeply in his faith. Eventually, he escaped and returned home—but his story didn’t end there. Years later, Patrick experienced a powerful sense of calling from God to return to Ireland, the very place where he had once suffered. Despite feeling unqualified and uncertain, he chose to obey. Instead of holding onto bitterness toward the people who enslaved him, Patrick returned with compassion and a desire to share the message of Jesus. Through his ministry, many people in Ireland heard the gospel and came to faith in Christ. Patrick traveled widely, taught about God, and helped establish Christian communities. One well-known tradition says he used the three-leaf shamrock to explain the concept of the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Patrick’s life reminds us that God can redeem even the most painful experiences. What once caused suffering in Patrick’s life became the very place where God used him most powerfully. His example also challenges us to forgive those who have wronged us and to respond with grace instead of resentment. Just as Patrick returned to Ireland with a heart transformed by God’s love, we are called to extend that same love to others and share the hope of the gospel wherever God sends us. Main Takeaways Saint Patrick’s story is one of redemption, forgiveness, and obedience to God. After being enslaved in Ireland, Patrick returned as a missionary to share the gospel. God can use painful experiences to fulfill His greater purposes. Patrick’s life reminds believers to forgive those who have wronged them. Christians are called to share the message of Christ with compassion and courage.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 17, 2026 is: Erin go bragh • air-un-guh-BRAW • phrase Erin go bragh is an Irish phrase that means “Ireland forever.” // They proudly waved the Irish flag during the parade, shouting “Erin go bragh!” See the entry > Examples: “Dressed in full Irish regalia, Fitzgerald rode his horse, Jack, through the streets of Clinton every St. Patrick's Day. Jack was also dressed for the occasion, with green ribbons on his mane and a green blanket with gold lettering, ‘Erin Go Bragh.'” — Craig S. Semon, The Worcester (Massachusetts) Telegram & Gazette, 22 Dec. 2025 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.

It's Irish fairy tale month (AKA the best time of the year)! Abbie reads an old Irish folk tale that's sure to bring a happy tear to your eye with The Spinners of Blessings. Then we take a sharp turn with Kelsey's dark Irish folk tale, The Abhartach, thought to be the inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula.

In this episode, Jack and Miles are joined by famously half-Irish comedian/podcaster Matt Lieb to talk about the low-key inspiration for the Oscar-winning film 'Sinners': Leprechauns! They'll explore their evolution throughout history, their inconsistent power set, and their influence on our collective night paralysis demon Ryan Coogler!

On this episode of Think Theory Radio we discuss some interesting Irish characters!

Trigger Warning: This episode contains a reference to sexual assault. Choosing freedom over fitting in. What if that one decision changed everything? Maxine grew up in an Irish culture where drinking was considered a vital piece of celebration, identity, and belonging, and for years she rode the exhausting cycle of stopping, starting, and negotiating with alcohol. Then she took on 75 Hard for her health, realized people were waiting for her to “be a drinker” again, and found herself craving something deeper than social approval: stability, clarity, and real joy. A sunrise on New Year's Day became the moment she knew she was done for good. In this episode, Maxine joins Coach Cole to share how she stepped off the rollercoaster, stopped explaining herself, and built a life she genuinely loves—without alcohol. In this episode, Coach Cole and Maxine discuss: The cultural messages about alcohol that shaped Maxine's early relationship with drinking What it felt like to be able to “pause,” but not truly feel free Why the mental load of alcohol was the most exhausting part How 75 Hard became a socially acceptable “pass” to stop drinking Choosing freedom over fitting in when people push back on your decision The New Year's Day sunrise moment that made her say, “I'm done” Why she identifies as a “zero consumption” person and doesn't romanticize moderation How she handles parties now: honesty, boundaries, and bringing her own options Playing it forward to dissolve cravings and protect her peace And other topics… Episode links: nakedmindpath.com Related Episodes: Do other countries have as much of a problem with alcohol as we do in the U.S.? - Reader Question - EP 244 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-244-reader-question-do-other-countries-have-as-much-of-a-problem-with-alcohol-as-we-do-in-the-u-s/  The Cost of Fitting In - Alcohol Freedom Coaching - EP 785 - https://thisnakedmind.com/the-cost-of-fitting-in-alcohol-freedom-coaching-e785/ Is it better to drink in moderation or not at all? - Reader Question - EP 574 - https://thisnakedmind.com/ep-574-readers-questions-is-it-better-to-drink-in-moderation-or-not-at-all/ Ready to take the next step on your journey? Visit https://learn.thisnakedmind.com/podcast-resources for free resources, programs, and more.

Plus, Irish whiskey is usually distilled 3 times, rather than twice. Both are delicious in their own ways, however. First Grizzly Bear of 2026 Spotted in Yellowstone National Park On March 9, Yellowstone biologists working in the northern part of the park reported seeing the first grizzly bear of the spring season. The bear was observed in the backcountry scavenging on a bull bison carcass. The first reported grizzly bear sighting of 2025 occurred on March 14. In 2024, it occurred on March 3, and in 2022 and 2023, March 7. When bears emerge from hibernation, they look for food and often feed on elk and bison that died over the winter. Bears may react aggressively to encounters with people when feeding on carcasses. Male grizzlies come out of hibernation in early March. Females with cubs emerge in April and early May. All of Yellowstone is grizzly and black bear country: from the deepest backcountry to the boardwalks and parking lots around Old Faithful. Protect yourself and bears by following our safety guidelines: Prepare for a bear encounter by carrying bear spray, knowing how to use it and making sure it's accessible. Stay alert. Hike or ski in groups of three or more, stay on maintained trails and make noise. Avoid hiking at dusk, dawn or at night. Do not run if you encounter a bear. Stay 100 yards (91 m) away from black and grizzly bears. Approaching bears within 100 yards is prohibited. Use binoculars, a telescope or telephoto lens to get a closer look. Store food, garbage, barbecue grills and other attractants in hard-sided vehicles or bear-proof food storage boxes. Report bear sightings and encounters to a park ranger immediately.

Officials with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department say Curtis Lee Daniels entered a Largemouth Bass in a tournament at Lake Fork that was later found to contain three three-quarter-ounce fishing weights inside its stomach. According to an affidavit obtained by KLTV, investigators also reported finding the same type of weights in Daniels' boat. The fishing tournament offered an overall prize of 11-thousand, five-hundred dollars. Daniels was arrested Sunday and booked into the Wood County Jail. He is being held on a 20-thousand-dollar bond on a charge of violating a fishing tournament law, which is considered a third-degree felony in Texas. If convicted, Daniels could face up to ten years in prison and fines of up to ten thousand dollars. Officials say other possible penalties include losing his fishing license and paying civil restitution.

The disqualifications happened during the 2026 Camel Beauty Show Festival in Oman. Veterinary inspectors found evidence that some camels had been given cosmetic injections and other enhancements. According to reports from Vice Media and Forbes, the procedures included hyaluronic acid injections in the lips, dermal fillers, silicone around the nose, Botox to soften facial features, and silicone wax used to inflate the animals' humps. Those treatments violate competition rules, which require that camels be judged only on their natural physical traits. Camel beauty contests are popular across the Gulf region, where prized animals compete for prestige and sometimes large prize money. Judges typically evaluate features like the camel's  coat, neck, head, and hump—traits meant to reflect selective breeding rather than cosmetic enhancement. Organizers, including the Camel Club and the Oman Camel Racing Federation, say they're committed to preventing manipulation in the competitions and plan to enforce strict penalties for breeders who break the rules. The incident has also renewed debate about how far some competitors are willing to go in pursuit of victory—especially when a camel looks, as officials put it, “too good to be true.” Reference: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2026/03/06/camels-disqualified-beauty-pageant-cosmetic-injections-oman/89023631007/ OUTDOORS FIELD REPORTS & COMMENTS We want to hear from you!

Send a textSt. Patrick's Day hits different depending on where you live, who you're with, and whether you're celebrating on a Tuesday or turning the whole weekend into a mission. We bring in our “big three” roundtable crew Mister Askew, Collin Pope, and Dave Frank to talk all things green, all things Irish, and all the little choices that make the day legendary (or just messy).We start with the debate nobody agrees on: should St. Patrick's Day be a federal holiday? From there it turns into a practical guide for how people actually celebrate, from local brewery parties to parades and hometown bar crawls. We get into the food side too: corned beef and cabbage, Reubens on rye, pastrami cravings, and a sleeper old-school condiment you can put on everything. If you're planning a St. Patrick's Day menu, you'll leave with ideas that work whether you're going out or staying in.Then we talk drinks the way real people do: Guinness preferences, Irish whiskey staples like Jameson and Bushmills, Bailey's Irish Cream in coffee, and the seasonal chaos of the McDonald's Shamrock Shake. We also swap St. Patrick's Day travel recommendations, from Erie and Youngstown to bigger bucket-list picks like Chicago and Ireland, and we wrap with Irish-themed movie favorites and a rapid-fire finish.If you're building your St. Patrick's Day plans right now, hit play, then subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

In Part Two of our mini-series, The Streets of the West Village, we turn to the people who gave the neighborhood its character and vitality — from Irish longshoremen on the docks to actors on the off-Broadway stage, from street gangs to speakeasy proprietors. From Eugene O'Neill to Bea Arthur, their stories help define this corner of Manhattan. Well into the early 19th century, the West Village still felt like a true village, with its preserved, winding lanes. Over the following decades, a diverse array of residents arrived and made the neighborhood their own, working along the waterfront or gathering at local haunts like the beloved White Horse Tavern. The promise of a new subway line once seemed entirely beneficial, but it brought a devastating consequence: Seventh Avenue had to be extended straight through the western Village, cutting a swath through the existing streetscape and wiping away hundreds of buildings.  Prohibition and the Jazz Age are seemingly etched into the very fabric of the West Village, reflected in the many institutions that date from the 1920s and '30s, including numerous former speakeasies. Join us as we wander through the Jazz Age Village — Fedora, Chumley's, the Cherry Lane Theatre, and more — and trace the echoes of that exuberant era.

ALBUM PINS ARE CHANGING THE WAY WE HEAR CELTIC MUSIC I got an email from Discmakers, my CD manufacturer, saying they were forced to raise their prices because of tariffs by our president. This is a tax on Americans. So if you love CDs, remember that the prices will go up. So please support those higher priced CDs. But there is an option for those who don't want to buy CDs and for those who want a better alternative for the environment. It's the Album Pin. Album Pins are lapel pins themed to a particular album. You get a digital download of the album. Then you can wear your album. All of my latest Album Pins are wood - burned and locally produced. This makes them better for the environment. And they are fun and fashionable. If you want to learn more about Album Pins, you can read more about them on my celtfather.Substack.com or just buy one at magerecords.com THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. 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.

If you're in a Celtic band, send me an audio recording of you performing live. Just audio. I'll use it in a podcast episode later this year. Email me at follow@bestcelticmusic. Tracy Lucky emailed a photo: "Standing ovation. Hi Marc, I just wanted to drop a line to give a standing ovation for your incredibly eloquent response to the critique e mail you received. I absolutely loved it. Yes, politics are sometimes unpleasant to hear about but it important, now more than ever, to stand by kindness and justice for everyone. Also, for anyone who thinks Celtic music isn't inextricably tied to politics, you haven't been listening hard enough. You may lose some followers over your stance, but I just backed you here to help minimize whatever impact that may have. I love to listen to your podcast while working as it makes my day pass so much faster. Beshaba (attached) seems to like the happy tunes as well while she stares at me like a wee gremlin. She especially likes your album Selcouth and always comes for a little visit when I play it." Cristen Y posted on Patreon: "Hello there! I've been exploring my Irish and Scottish Heritage and have enjoyed supporting you here on Patreon and listening to the podcast. I was curious if you knew of any artists or albums that feature keening songs. I know keening is associated with grieving so I can imagine that there is a sacredness to it and it may not be considered to be respectful to record. I would love any insight you have. Also, I saw your Celtfather post about standing up for the things we  love and care about. Thank you for modeling courage and using your voice and platform to speak out against the atrocities occurring because of our current administration. I also hope that you recognize the resistance of making music and elevating the voices of other artists; that in and of itself is admirable! Onward!"
