Irish Wristwatch

HERITAGE RADIO NETWORK
About this episode

Ireland is in the house! It’s a Hibernian takeover of the Speakeasy as Daragh Flanagan, Tim Herlihy and Mike Ferreira sit down with the band to talk about the future of Irish bars and Irish spirits in the US. From the early days of Irish Whiskey to the exciting untapped potential of Poitin (pronounced “puh-CHEEN”) the guys talk about the fun stuff coming over from the Emerald Isle and - crucially - how to educate Americans about it. That’s where Daragh and Bord Bia come in, as the Irish government works to tell their North American friends about all the cool stuff they’re up to. Plus! What Damon, Sother and Greg did on their summer vacations.
