In this week's episode I talk about the movie Flubber for reasons I'll never understand and also talk about a bunch of Irish music--appropriate since this is going up on St. Patrick's Day. Additionally at one point I do the least professional thing I could've done and leave the room with the audio just running to get a glass of whiskey. So that's here too! Check it out, I think you'll like it.

| Cover photo. You'd think I would've thought to make a joke about how the color of Flubber is green in the episode, but nope. |
 |
| See? It's green. The joke was right there. But I don't think I realized I was doing a St. Patrick's Day episode until I was done with that segment. Anyway, someone who works for JackSepticEye read some of my tweets so I did a segment about the movie. Etc. |
 |
| I mostly focused on the album on top, but I threw in a "Best of the Chieftains" in the photo as well. "Voice of Ages" is a great Irish album, but it also photographs really beautifully, doesn't it? |
 |
| Best of the Dubliners...and bonus info that I apparently bought this copy at Euclid Records for $7.99. |
 |
| This Irish Rovers album has been with me for a long time, as you can tell by the condition of the case. Many of the CDs I got around this period are in rough shape. For a while there I didn't even have shelves to store them on! |
 |
| Collection of Pogues stuff. Bought this one for $9.99 I guess. Two discs. Worth it. |
 |
| The quintessential Flogging Molly record. |
 |
| Arguably the quintessential DKM record, as well...but everybody probably has a different favorite. This one's mine. |
 |
| The collection of albums by The Gloaming. Got into them pretty recently and picked up EVERYTHING. Really moody stuff, but unmistakably Irish. It's just that you'll be dancing a slow waltz instead of a jig or a reel. |
