Get it up ya, lads!
It's our St Patrick's Day special, bringing you all the soothing poetic sounds you're going to need after drowning yourself in stout and singing 'Wild Rover' at least 16 times across the weekend festivities.
Leon kicks us off with the story of Luke Kelly and Patrick Kavanagh's meet which gave us the song Raglan Road
We head back a little to WB Yeats and discuss how the poems we were told to enjoy at school hold us back to really enjoy poetry in later life
Imelda May is giving a bit of a gushing, as well as work from Jeanna Ni Riordan and Stephen Maguire.
We wrap things up with Leon's 'Calling Home', brought together through our lovely listeners sending in what Ireland means to them
This is our love-letter podcast to Ireland and to everyone who holds a special place in their hearts for the Emerald Isle
