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 it's culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos. 2019 is the Celtic Invasion of Star Wars. 2020 is the Origins of Celtic Invasions. You can find out more about these two exciting trips. Join the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/ THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST! I don't know about you. But I am not a fan of corporate influence. Certainly not in politics, but also not in the music I create and share. That's one of the reasons that the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast supports independent Celtic musicians. I want to help the artists who don't have a record label or a giant production company behind them. They are doing everything themselves. Your support of this podcast helps with that mission. This show is listener supported. Instead of trying to find advertisers, I've decided to let your generosity fund the creation, production, and promotion of the show. You'll get episodes before regular listeners, discounts on merch, and when we hit a milestone, you get extra special episodes, including a bonus episode of the Celtic Christmas Podcast that will come out next month. I want to thank our newest patron of the podcast: Maegan S., Daniel N., David P., Aaron A., and Michael C, Tiffany K, and Bryan Brake who raised her pledges.

Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com John Gibbon emailed: "I listen to all this Beautiful music while I am busy in my workshop in Richards bay, South Africa. I am a knife maker." Michele Williams emailed from Pennsylvania: "Hi Marc, I listen to your podcast while working. My boss is nice enough to let me have an MP3 player at my desk, so your voice is one of several I listen to during my long evening shifts. Funny story- I actually found your podcast while doing research for a Werewolf character. She was a Ceilican (that's a werecat in the game. The line is from England, based on a faerie cat that was hunted to extinction some decades before the time period we played in J ). She was Irish-born, and a Celtic punk rocker, and your podcast turned up when I was looking for music for her to play. This was nearly 5 years ago, and I've been a fan ever since. Thanks for all the fantastic music. I've had a great time listening over the years. Slàinte (mhath)"
