About this episode

After immigrating from Ireland in the late ’80s, Brendan Fay tried marching in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade to celebrate his full identity—Irish, Catholic, and gay. He got booed, fired, and even arrested. Brendan eventually realized that if he wanted a truly inclusive St. Pat’s parade, he’d have to make one himself.


Little America: The Official Podcast is an Apple TV+ podcast, produced in conjunction with the Vox Media Podcast Network.


Watch the new season of Little America, an Apple Original series, December 9 on Apple TV+ where available.
