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.

Elizaveta Lapteva sent photos: "Hi, Marc!
My name is Liza and I am from Russia (unfortunately), I have recently discovered your podcast and I would like to say thank you for what you are doing. I love Celtic music, songs and dances, also picked up some piano notes when visiting Scotland. Utterly magnificent sounds and composition. I enjoy listening to your podcast while I am walking through the woods near my country house or collect berries there. It helps me to escape from the harsh reality and just meditate in the great outdoors.
I sent you some photos of our my favourite places"
Thank you for emailing Liza. I appreciate you sharing those beautiful photos. And I hope you stay safe in this terrible period of history.
Rex Edwards emailed: “Marc. Long time fan and podcast subscriber. You provide the modern and I’m a long time supporter of Alan OLeary and his trad podcast on liveIreland.com which I think has hit hard times. He has great connections to the old timers. Don’t know if you’ve heard of him but any visibility you could give him would be great. He’s always asking to share with friends but that would require me making friends. Your show is a great delight and many thanks. Rex”
