  1. I’ve noticed, throughout Podcast #62 which I reviewed today, Celtic names have continued to elude your pronunciation. For instance, McLeod is pronounced Mc”Loud”. I thought there was a second one in that podcast, but it turns out it was spelled differently than I had imagined.

    I’ll point out others as I notice them. Of course, I’ve had the advantage of having studied Irish and picking up on the little nuances that most English speakers don’t get in school.

    • Thanks Liam! I fixed McLeod in future shows. But sadly, old ones are stuck with the same bad pronunciation.
