A joke:
How do you know when there's a bodhran player at your front door?
The knocking gets faster and faster.

And there's a woman climbing over chairs, taking pictures of every conceivable object at every conceivable angle...so she's obviously American.
He's upset a few along the way too, as does anyone willing to put their head above the fray.

Damning account of how the English government suppressed Ireland's economy for centuries, then victim blamed them when the famine happened and mostly refused to help. Lots of quotes from respected English officials expressing anti-Irish and anti-Catholic bigotry and occasionally coming right out and publicly stating the famine was a fortuitous way to bring down the unsustainable population. Good but long and repetitive.
