Brennans take on irish-americans and the irish diaspora, is the most balanced take on it. Irish americans can definitely be really annoying and belittling when visiting ireland, treating us like disneyland employees, on the flip side, having a genuine interest in your roots and culture is definitely something to be applauded

The fact that Brennan was apparently raised Pagan is truely wild and makes absolute sense.

I love the quick glimpses into Brennan's hippy childhood.  Like, "oh, you're THAT homeschool kid." 🤣  But also, wow, what a world view.

did you charge him? charge him

from Ireland, he said Sláinte right so we're taking him back actually, he's one of ours now (but god almighty those fucking accents)

"Where I really went wrong, so at craft services there was this mashed potato"
NO BRENNAN YOU CANT NO WAIT NO MY BOY

i love the fact that his irish accent is the same as his pirate accent

My niece was the exact kind of little girl who'd go wandering around in her fairy wings for long treks without explanation and she's also the kind of person who'd absolutely just give a gift to a nice looking stranger and then run off. There are kids like that out there. Doesn't make the interaction any less special!

i think brennan would approve of this being the way we celebrate st paddy’s

the fairie giving him the token story feels like the seal/fairy question that’s been going around tumblr. like the mental gymnastics to believe it was a fairie is way easier than trying to rationalize it being a completely unrelated tween

As an irishman he gets the pass for being irish american. He can do a better accent than me, and he can pronounce sláinte properly so

“you dont drink! youre not Catholic!! but youre at LEAST GONNA FIGHT”


i really want a storytelling channel where brennan just goes through these old irish myths he talks about

The thing about the adventure coin is that Brennan has demonstrated having such a good memory for certain things, and has been known to have favorite food places he goes back to regularly. I can totally imagine him sitting at the same table in a coffee shop from months before and just knowing that he had lost it there and suspecting where to find it. The one part of the story that freaks me out is that the girl that gave it to him didn't show up to camp the next day.

This just adds to the pile of evidence that Brennan Lee Mulligan is the most interesting person on planet earth

"Tippety-Ta-Ti-Ta!"

Ok, so like guys, is Brennan actually magic?

The opening made me BARK with laughter, and then Brennan talking about diaspora made me cry. My mom's family has passed down letters and journals from Ireland and from first fleeing to America, and very recently tracked down very distant cousins who still live there... That thing about "a lot of people who left didn't want to leave" hit hard, because that's exactly what it's always been. They wanted to be home!! It drives my (real) Irish friends nuts that Irish-Americans claim heritage without even knowing how to identify shit like the UK vs Republic of Ireland, but it's true as hell that those traditions do get passed down in a lot of families. I'm culturally American for sure, but a great deal of my family's traditions came from elsewhere.

Anyway, lá fhéile Pádraig sona daoibh!!

the earnest with which brennan tells the faerie coin story makes me believe him

I know that brennan as a white man doesnt experience discrimination for being Irish, but that whole potatoes bit fully read to me as a xenophobic encounter
