Week 26: June 25, 2020 (#1935)
Another chance to hear Fiona Ritchie with special guest Karine Polwart, the Scottish songwriter, spoken-word performer, and essayist. We enjoy music from Karine’s album Laws of Motion and Karine talks to Fiona about the lasting impact of 18th-and 19th-century Scots and Irish migrations in North America, and more.
