Ep 94 - Friend Holiday - St Patricks Day with Magners Cider
Manage episode 323009362 series 2850582
It is the most hallowed drinking day of them all, St Patrick's Day! Why do we celebrate? Why are rivers dyed green? Irish Bands? We attempt to answer some of your questions but really, its mostly just about the drinking.
We talk ancestral tradition, snakes, Chicago, cider and U2.
