About the show

Get Folked is a long-format, comfort-noise podcast anchored to casual discussions around folk music with enough slack on the chain to allow the conversation to drift into the uncertain waters of parenting, mid-life career choices, living in a foreign country, returning home, whiskey sampling, and entertainment. Join us as we explore the subjects of Irish and international culture, artists, live music sessions, song lyrics, and song-writing. getfolked.substack.com

Episode 134 - Taste Test

Andrew broadens his horizons and visits another local open mic night and finds himself “inspired!” INSPIRED!To do what exactly remains to be seen but at least the company is good.The lads discuss the timeless classic - Sister Act 2 - looking for meaning in some of the questionable guidance young nuns of the 90’s may have been giving the next generation of musical artists, given the pool of evidence they are drawing from. Joyful! Joyful! Get Folked.(Note - A glitch due to “online maintenance” of the podcasting program causes two blips in sound. Please excuse us talking over one another towards the end of the episode - this lasts about 15secs. Also, the outro music fails us so please use your imagination and don’t sit there in some sort of Get Folked trance awaiting them banjo twangs. I’ve been assured by Sam, our podcast pilot, that we will both sound better and, even more intelligent in future episodes.) This is a public episode.

Episode 133 - The Grey Rhino

One more time for Andy and Ed to record in the same room together this summer. Unfortunately, a slight oversight with the audio settings resulted in the wonderfully professional microphones in their hands being used as mere weights to get their bicep pump on, as they unknowingly speak into the far lower quality computer microphone. This, dear listener, results in the same quality of subject matter that you are used to being discussed, but just a little harder to hear. In risk management terms this is what is referred to as a “Grey Rhino”.That being said, we hope that you can still enjoy hearing it as much as they enjoyed making it.Welcome to The Get Folked Podcast.

Episode 132 - Mind Your Anus

The Boys Are Back! So, Andy and Ed missed a week, but what they lack in consistency they more than make up for in the rambling digressions you’ve come to know and love.This week’s episode sees the guys sharing the same room, air, and plate of assorted biscuits (apparently six biscuits = an assortment), as Andy travels home to the mother-land with more tales of risque Spa etiquette. And Ed’s insights into the world of sports will leave regular listeners of the podcast completely unsurprised. This is a public episode.

Episode 130 - Speedo Nation

This week’s episode sees Andy and Ed don their Ethology hats to discuss the cultural, nocturnal, and predatory habits of the cats in their lives. In summary, cats are weird! These newfound hats also remain in place for the follow-up discussion on how exactly human swimmers manage to poo in a swimming pool. In summary, humans are also pretty weird!P.S. Don’t worry if you don’t know what Ethology means, we had to Google it as well. Welcome to The Get Folked Podcast. Enjoy the episode. This is a public episode.

Episode 130 - 3 Socks, 1 Pen.

The legacy of Jamie Oliver and how his works have influenced the contents of Ed’s “Library” are briefly mentioned this week, as is the trauma of being scammed by a planetarium while simultaneously depressed by the modern day over fishing of the Earth’s oceans.In other news, Andy’s vest makes it’s first appearance of 2026 as he stews in what can only be described as one of Berlin’s “community soups” in an attempt to combat the city’s swealtering temperature.And Ed’s love of Dublin is growing along with his tolerance for Guinness and his knowledge of ancient ceremonies of dynastic fealty. Perhaps all three are related. You, dear listener, may be the judge.It’s The Get Folked Podcast. This is a public episode.

Episode 129 - Follow The Signs

Ed and Andy channel their inner Joe Duffy this week (that’s an Irish radio reference for all you international listeners) and they just kind-of give out about things. Hey! Maybe they’re giving out about something you also like to give out about and you want to shout out “Yeah!” to yourself in the car on the way to work, or while lying in bed at night next to your soulmate after some passionate love-making.If that’s the case, it’s probably in the best interests of your mental health to just tune in and catch your weekly dose of cathartic chatter.

Episode 128 - Musical Dispatches

This week’s episode is kind of special for two reasons:* It’s two days late. Wow! (and sorry) * It’s dedicated to Ed’s experiences at last weekend’s Beyond the Pale music festival.That’s right everyone, for once Ed has brought the musical goods to an episode of The Get Folked Podcast, albeit in a slightly drunken way.Enjoy.
