Join me for My Stonewell Cidery Chat with Daniel Emerson. Founded by Daniel and Geraldine Emerson in 2009, Stonewell is a small family-run cider producer. Their story began with an old French press and apple mill from Geraldine's Loire Valley family before upgrading to a modern press at their Carrigaline Production facility. I joined Daniel in Carrigaline and we walked amongst their fermenters and chatted about how Stonewell have always used apples that are sourced from orchards across Waterford, Kilkenny, Laois, Tipperary, and Cork. They use traditional cider apples like Dabinett and Michelin, blended with eating varieties such as Jonagored, Elstar, and Falstaff Stonewell cider always stood out to me as one of the better cider offerings in bars. This trip down to them confirmed that.

A new in-person location to purchase the Kilkenny Gift Card has launched to enhance the convenience and accessibility of the initiative. St. Canice's Credit Union High Street is the first in-person location to purchase the Kilkenny Gift Card. The card was introduced in November 2025 by Kilkenny Chamber and Kilkenny County Council in an upgrade to the previous paper vouchers. Over €160,000 of the new Kilkenny Gift Cards have been sold since November, with the cards popular with organisations as employee rewards and for consumers as gifts. Molly Drennan, Head of Operations at St. Canice's Credit Union, said: "St. Canice's Credit Union is about community and has been a partner of the Chamber for many years. We previously sold the Kilkenny Gift Vouchers, so it's great for us to now sell the new high-tech Kilkenny Gift Card, as a way to give back to our local businesses. "It's really easy for people to buy the Kilkenny Gift Card from us by going up to the counter in our High Street branch and letting us know how much they want loaded onto the card. It takes minutes and is especially handy for people that want to support local and want the convenience of a card that's in their hand straight away. We have the end of the school year coming up so it'll be ideal for people buying gifts for teachers, Christmas, birthdays and many other occasions. "We've also got 'Load This Card' envelopes that contain the Gift Card that people can pick up and load with value themselves online at a later date, it's all about making supporting our community easy. As the Kilkenny Gift Card is accepted by so many good, quality businesses, it's a gift that anyone would be happy to receive. We look forward to welcoming people into the Credit Union in High St. to buy their Kilkenny Gift Card." John Hurley, chief executive at Kilkenny Chamber of Commerce, said: "Our objective is to make the Kilkenny Gift Card accessible and convenient to buy for a wide range of audiences. The digital version of the card can be purchased online and sent to the recipient in moments, and the launch of the new sales point at St. Canice's Credit Union High Street is important because it allows the physical version of the card to be purchased and given to the recipient in moments too. We look forward to continuing to work alongside St. Canice's Credit Union as we continue to build the Kilkenny Gift Card." Kilkenny County Council's Local Enterprise Office is backing the Kilkenny Gift Card as part of its #ShopKilkenny campaign for 2024. Aileen McGrath, Head of Enterprise, Kilkenny Local Enterprise Office said: "The Kilkenny Gift Card is going from strength to strength with over 120 businesses now accepting the card, across a wide range of sectors. Every Kilkenny Gift Card purchased is an investment in our city that will continue to circulate, powering our economy." The Kilkenny Gift Card is part of the multi award winning Town & City Gift Card concept active across Ireland. Colin Munro, CEO of Miconex, said: "It's fantastic to see the success of the Kilkenny Gift Card so far with over €160,000 in sales, over 120 businesses accepting the card, and the launch of the new sales point at St. Canice's Credit Union High Street. From our programs across Ireland, we know how vital a sales point is for locals and visitors who are keen to shop local and support the community." The Kilkenny Gift Card is available to buy for consumers and organisations. See more stories here.

An album pin is a lapel pin with artwork inspired by a specific album or song from an album. It could be the actual album artwork or it could be inspired by a specific track on the album. The best album pins stand out on their own. They appeal to more than just your fans. It is simple, bold, and visually engaging. However, what truly makes it an “album pin” is that the purchaser also gets a digital album with their pin. I have an entire blog on my website with details including templates for you to make your own album pin jacket. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST! You Make the Music Happen!

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. In 2026, we're traveling to the Celtic nation of Galicia in Spain. We'll dive deep into the history and legends of the Galician Celts, uncovering their connections to Ireland, Scotland, and beyond. We'll walk the same lands where Celtic warriors once roamed, hear the myths passed down through generations, and experience the magic of authentic Galician Celtic music, alive with passion and history. This isn't just a trip—it's a journey into the heart of a Celtic culture unlike any other. Will you join us?

Mark Adamczyk emailed from Akron, Ohio: "Mark, Just wanted to reach out to you about the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast. I found you on Sirius XM last year (March 2024) while recovering from back surgery (herniated a disc last February. 220 V down the left leg - that was a TON of fun!!) Hearing you mention recovering from hip replacement surgery the other week made me feel a certain kinship with you around the podcast. About 3 weeks after surgery, my wife and I received an invitation to travel to Ireland with our kid's high school band for them to play in the Dublin St Patrick's Day parade. (Our kids have graduated but I still cover the sports as team physician!) Having made enough of a recovery to do the walking needed, we made the trip and had an absolute BLAST touring Southern Ireland (Dublin, Kilkenny, Blarney, Killarney [my favorite!!], Ring of Kerry, Cliffs of Mohr). When I got back to the States, I started looking around for ways to listen to Celtic music as we thoroughly enjoyed listening to it while on vacation. I then found your podcast and have been listening somewhat regularly since. (Summertime tends toward country music for me. But when the weather gets colder, especially after the holidays, I find myself looking for you again! I also catch up a bit sitting outside on a weekend morning on our back patio at other times when I get the chance!) We also got a new dog soon after coming home and named him Guinness in honor of the trip! (We also thought he reminded us a bit of a pint of the brew with his white accents! Check out his collar!) When I take him on his daily walks, you are a regular on our playlist! Me walking my Irish dog and listening to the I&CMP while recovering from back surgery - beautiful!!! Thanks for helping with my recovery! Hope you are doing well with yours and look forward to continuing to listen more over time. I attached a few pics for you too - some from Ireland in places which I'm sure you will recognize and one of Guinness and I on our latest walk today!! Slainte!!!”
