From Saints to Suds: The Common Folk St. Patrick’s Special

49m | Mar 17, 2026

Dust off your best green gear and grab a cold one—the crew is diving deep into the luck of the Irish! In this episode, Ben, Morgan, and Andy trace the roots of St. Patrick’s Day from its origins as a religious feast to the global party it is today.

But why is the holiday such a massive deal in the middle of the Great Plains? The team explores Nebraska’s surprising Irish history, from the "Irish Capital" of O’Neill—home to the world’s largest shamrock—to the 19th-century immigrants who helped build the state's railroads and communities.

Expect plenty of laughs, some fascinating historical deep dives, and maybe a few green beers along the way. It's a grounded, honest look at a holiday that’s about much more than just four-leaf clovers
