Show Notes
The lads take a tour through the Celtic nations this week on Windy City Irish Radio​. Milwaukee Irish Fest​ is finally here and Tim and Mike visit with founder and statesman, Ed Ward, to talk all things fest. Tune in for music of the Celtic nations from Scotland's Skerryvore and the Red Hot Chili Pipers​, Newfoundland's The Dardanelles​, and Barrule​ from the Isle of Man. Of course, there's plenty of music from the Irish as well with songs from County Clare's own Socks in the Frying Pan​, The Kilkennys​, Solas​, and Moya Brennan​ with Cormac de Barra​. Windy City Irish Radio's Olympic Correspondent, Karen DeKanter​, files a story this week on Irish Olympians, Annalise Murphy Sailing​ and the Brothers Donovan​. Disclaimer: Karen was not able to join us live for the filing as it seems she's been drinking too much of the Rio water after a night out with the U.S. swimmers. If this week's show isn't enough for you, tune in next week for our Super Extra Special Extended 3rd Anniversary program and the following week when we welcome the aforementioned Socks in the Frying Pan INTO THE WCIR STUDIOS! Aren't you glad you read all the way through? It'll surely be epic radio! Join us every week on WSBC 1240 AM from 8PM - 9PM and catch this week's podcast at www.windycityirishradio.com
