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.

Funny songs? Off the top of my head, you could do a whole set by Gaelic Storm: Johnny Tarr, Don't Go For the One, The Night I Punched Russell Crowe in the Head, The Night Pat Murphy Died, Darcy's Donkey. Others, done by lotsa bands, Why Paddy's Not At Work Today, Miss Fogarty's Christmas Cake, Tim Finnegan's Wake. Can you play the Prodigals? Uncle Arthur, The Drunken Warbler.

Sounds like a fun show, looking forward to it!"
