Today, you'll learn about 17 things to see and do in Wexford, Ireland. Just in time for my Celtic Invasion of Wexford that happens in June. I share one of the best ways to make effective climate change happen along with an easy personal change. And you'll hear music from Kinnfolk, Tarren, and Erin Ruth. This is Folk Songs & Stories #294 0:22 - Tarren “Sunk” from Outside Time 4:54 - WELCOME TO FOLK SONGS & STORIES I am Marc Gunn. I'm a Celtic and Folk musician and also host of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast, an hour-long radio show of some of the best indie Celtic music online. That was… If you're new to this show, please subscribe. You can do that PubSong.com or Just send an email to follow@celtfather. I had hip replacement surgery on the 13th of January. It's incredible that two weeks later I'm up and walking around. Yeah. I got a gruesome scar, but the medical professions are just amazing. The big challenge, of course, is that I haven't had time to work on podcasts or music or much of anything else. I'm largely exercising and taking care of my family. All while trying to ignore the pain. Sleeping is one of the worst parts of it all. But I'm hoping to get some new medicine that might make me at least a little bit more comfortable. So that said, I realized the Brobdingnagian Bards' Kickstarter is now delayed a couple months. Andrew and I planned to get together in person to record in February. I don't think it's gonna happen. Tho there's still a small possibility. In the meantime, we are planning to get together in April to record when I head to Texas for Sherwood Forest Faire. But that also didn't stop me from launching Another Kickstarter. This one is for the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. It funds a CD and Album Pin and other merch to promote the podcast with a really cool design that reads “Celtic Forever”. I'll tell you more about that in a little bit. But if you want to support the Kickstarter, I would greatly appreciate it. Follow the link in the shownotes. But before we goton with the show, I have a really important way for you to fight climate change. It all begins with your local government. The current administration is dismantling all the good climate progress we had these past few years. But that just reminds me that since the beginning of our country, there's been a big discussion about States Rights vs Federal Rights. States Rights was a big issue when our nation started. I'm learning more about that as I help my daughter with American History. While I think some issues like Climate Change progress should be national, that's not the way America will work for the next four years. We need to take it local. I heard about a recent analysis, state and local programs, such as improved building efficiency standards and ambitious renewable energy adoption targets. They have the potential to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by up to 62%. You can join a local group. Or you can talk to your city legislators or county or state legislators. If enough of us reach out locally, we can make change happen in our physical communities. Which will blossom up to our State and hopefully eventually our National. Start small. Start local. That idea was inspired while reading One5C, a website that shares climate news and actions. Bring your water bottle (or reusable mug) everywhere One of the biggest challenges in terms of both climate change and overconsumption is the world's dependence on single-use plastic. It's a dilemma in terms of fossil fuel use, pollution, ecosystem destruction, human health, and more. According to the U.N., 1 million plastic bottles are purchased every single minute across the world, and half of all plastic produced is used just once and then thrown away. The easiest thing we can do right this moment is make sure to grab your water bottle or coffee cup whenever you leave the house. You never know when thirst will strike, and bringing your own container no matter the destination takes away the need to buy something you'll just toss when it's empty—a win for both your wallet and the planet. 11:21 - Marc Gunn “Kilty Pleasure” from Selcouth Listen to the full story of “Kilty Pleasure” on show #251.

And if you check out show #695 Celtic Forever, you'll hear other tracks from these amazing Celtic artists. So why Celtic Forever. It goes back to the last song I featured earlier, “Kilty Pleasure”. Then I'm off to the pub or the fair or the fest A wee swing goes into each step ‘Cause I'm American born and Celtic forever And both are truly blessed I was trying to use that phrase to promote Selcouth with an album pin for the past couple of years. But the ideas just weren't working. Then Christopher Toler made the Cat in front of a Celtic Moon design that inspired the compilation artwork. I love the Album Pin design. So when you support the Album Pin on Kickstarter, you will get both the 14 track compilation, plus you'll get my album, Selcouth, as a bonus gift. 19:54 - THANK YOU GUNN RUNNERS Your generous support on Patreon is how I make a living with music.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/227damnf Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Some problems still exist with rail services. Fadhbanna áirithe fós le seirbhísí iarnróid. 'Many trains are now operating around the country following the storm' says Iarnród Éireann. 'Tá cuid mhaith de na traenacha ag feidhmiú mórthimpeall na tíre anois i ndiaidh na stoirme' a deir Iarnród Éireann. 'However, there is always a delay,' the company says. 'Tá an mhoill ann i gcónaí áfach' a deir an comhlacht. In addition, there will be no service to or from Galway, Westport and Belfast stations until tomorrow. Ina theannta sin ní bheidh aon seirbhís isteach ná amach as stáisiúin na Gaillimhe,Chathair na Mart agus Bhéal Feirste go dtí amárach. Trees have fallen on the train tracks on which the DART operates in the east and services have been significantly delayed in Malahide and Ballinrobe in Dublin in particular. Tá crainn titithe ar an ráille traenach ar a bhfeidhmíonn an DART san oirthear agus seirbhísí moillithe go suntasach i Mullach Íde agus Baile an Bhóthair i mBaile Átha Cliath go háirithe. This also has implications for the service in and out of Rosslare in Wexford. Tá impleachtaí aige seo freisin don tseirbhís isteach agus amach as Ros Láir i Loch Garman.

We could be about to see warning signs to remind tourists to drive on the left-hand side of the road. The signs, designed to remind tourists which side of the road we drive on in Ireland, would be rolled out in more tourist areas under new road sign guidelines published by the Department of Transport. There is sporadic use of such signs at ferry ports such as Dublin, Dun Laoghaire, and Rosslare and in Gaeltacht areas, but the new updates would allow them to be erected at the exits of popular tourist attractions. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Councillor Joe Garrihy, and Helga Himmelsbach. Picture © Pat Flynn

On today's Free State, Dion and Joe are joined by Sally Hayden, a remarkable journalist covering the story of our time.Sally's book My Fourth Time, We Drowned exposed the incompetence and corruption in the EU's treatment of the most vulnerable in society, desperate families crossing the Mediterranean and leaving poverty and war in African countries.Sally reports from some of the most dangerous places in the world yet seems oblivious to danger. From Ballinrobe to Rosslare, hearts are hardening and human beings are brutalised and dehumanised. Sally talks about what she has witnessed, the mass death that has been normalised and gives an insight into what drives a remarkable and relentless young reporter.Sally Hayden's book "A magnificent, engagé investigative report… [an] act of witness...It is clear from [Hayden's book] that the current politics of immigration have turned & twisted human nature against itself and our own kind and are fostering unimaginable maltreatment of those who wish only to survive and live a better life… [It] strongly convey[s] the urgency of fundamentally rethinking immigration policy… It is already late to act, but that is a poor reason for inaction.” - The New York Review of BooksSally Hayden: Winner ‘journalist of the year', Irish Journalism Awards 2023Winner best ‘foreign coverage', Irish Journalism Awards 2023Finalist in the 2023 BookTube PrizeNominated for the Jan Michalski Prize for Literature 2023Finalist for the New York Public Library's Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism 2023Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.For more on Free State: https://freestatepodcast.com/To get in touch with the podcast: info@freestatepodcast.com Hosted on Acast.
