Show Notes

In this special St. Patrick’s Day Morning Brew, Ted pours a strong cup of coffee and takes listeners on a short trip to Ireland—without leaving North Idaho.

Who was St. Patrick, and why is his story still told centuries later?

Along the way, Ted explores the famous legend of Patrick chasing the snakes out of Ireland, and the more likely explanation involving glaciers and geography.

He also shares the simple lesson of the shamrock, which Patrick used to explain the idea of the Trinity.

With a mix of humor, history, and Irish folklore, this episode reminds us that behind every holiday there’s usually a real story worth telling. S

o grab your favorite mug—Irish coffee if you’re feeling festive—and enjoy a few green thoughts for the day.

And as always, Ted closes with a reminder that life is pretty good… almost paradise, here in North Idaho.
