That is one of the other podcasts I host. It features Irish and Celtic music from around the world. It’s a fantastic show. Definitely go check out that episode and subscribe to that podcast if you love Celtic music.</p> Every year, I produce a Celtic Christmas episode over there. I usually release those episodes on this feed, but I didn’t do that over the last few years. This year, I was struck with the idea that I could slowly release episodes to build over to the regular season of the show. That’s what we’re doing.</p> I have a new season in the planning stages. But that means I need to find Patrons to financially make new episodes of this podcast happen!</p> For as little as $1 per episode, you can support new Celtic Christmas music and have it shared with thousands of Celtic and Christmas music fans around the world.</p> It doesn’t cost you much to spread Celtic Christmas cheer. But your small donation helps me a LOT to produce these episodes. The first three episodes of the year are all re - podcasts. I will not charge patrons for those episodes. So it won’t cost you a dime.
