Think St. Patrick was Irish? Nope. Think he chased snakes out of Ireland? Never happened. And who in Ireland has actually eaten a boiled dinner?!

Tune in to The Morning Beat with me and Gráinne on WMPG at 6:30 AM as we bring you the morning’s craic and bust all the St. Paddy’s Day myths including the one that irks us both the most - it is not St. Pat’s or St. Patty’s—enough of that nonsense!

We'll be playing our favourite tracks from the north and south of Ireland.

Sláinte and see you then!

Coming up this Wednesday, March 5th, Nora Flaherty (Maine People's Alliance) is my guest. Nora will join me at 7.30am.
