Broadcasting several days before the holiday, the program celebrates Irish heritage in the film industry with music, humor, and conversation. Guest Priscilla Lane joins the festivities, playfully embracing her Irish roots while sharing stories about the many actors, musicians, and filmmakers of Irish descent working in Hollywood at the time. The broadcast also features appearances by longtime Hollywood restaurateur Al Levy, along with musical performances of beloved Irish songs that would have been familiar to audiences of the era. Blending lighthearted conversation with period music and studio anecdotes, the program offers a charming snapshot of how Hollywood—and radio—celebrated St. Patrick’s Day during the Golden Age of broadcasting.
