It's that most wonderful time of year - St. Patrick's day. To get in the mood I'm launching the inaugural episode of the Hibernian Film Club. I'm joined by Trash (@bidenbigboi) to discuss the Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) by Ken Loach, but to get to that point, we're forced to reckon with nearly 800 years of Anglo-Irish history to properly contextualize the film. This episode is an attempt to cover that history to get to discussing the Irish War of Independence and Irish Civil War.
Episode 43 Songs:
Go On Home British Soldiers by Saoirse
Thousands Are Sailing by the Pogues
The Foggy Dew by Derek Warfield & The Young Wolfe Tones
