It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. I can finally listen to Christmas music without getting strange looks. That also means it’s time to highlight Christmas music on the Pub Songs Podcast.

You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos. In episode #191, I talk the itinerary of the 2020 Origins of Celtic Invasions. We will explore Venice, Vicenza, and Padova. We will see castles, sail rivers, explore hills and mountains, and eat amazing Italian food.
You can find out more about this exciting trip. Join the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/
