Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com John White emailed: "Marc, have you done an episode on the Celtic influences on American country music? Growing up in East Tennessee, I was exposed to much classic country and blue grass on a daily basis. I recently finished Ken Burns' excellent documentary series on Country Music. The influence of Irish and Scott immigrants on country is undeniable. Thanks for your podcast. I've been listening since you were a wee lad in double digit podcasts."
