Tartan Week: Kyle Dawson, Parades & Quebec

A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!

This week we talk about the week long celebration of everything Scottish: Tartan Week!

We dive into it's Canadian roots, we find out about "The Mother of Tartan Day" and how over the years a day had grown into a week  of celebrations around the world. Later on in the episode we are also joined by Kyle Dawson, the President of the National Tartan Day New York Committee. 

But before all that we take a rummage in the sporran and shout out some Scottish celebrity birthdays.
