Habitat Enrichment

Mar 15, 2021 7:00 AM – 10:00 AM

With Krista

Early Saint Patrick's Day

Today I'm featuring a variety of Irish music, both traditional and decidedly non-traditional. The animal of the day is native to Ireland.

I've got some new synthwave, old citypop, and a song that straddles both nicely.

good morning!
Dana K (DBTF) 7:25:55 AM
Krista! I am awake. I’m never awake this early. Nice to hear you talk about vaccines on the morning I’m going to get my first jab!
Krista (host) 7:26:15 AM
Hooray! So happy you're getting it!
Mark 7:27:17 AM
Good morning Krista / rather brilliant sunrise this morning! What animal discussion ?today
Krista (host) 7:27:38 AM
Today it's the Irish Mountain Hare, Mark
Dana K (DBTF) 7:28:27 AM
Lovely driving around the city as the sun comes up music!
Mark 7:28:42 AM
Fantastic appropriate for St Pat week
Christine Duffy 8:34:03 AM
Top o' the morning to ye! 🌄
Krista (host) 8:34:59 AM
good morning, Christine!
Christine Duffy 8:43:31 AM
Lively tunes this morning, perfect for a brain still stuck in Standard Time. Can't wait to hear about the Irish mountain here.
jimbrewe 8:45:18 AM
happy monday, peeps!
Krista (host) 8:45:29 AM
good morning jimbrewe
Krista (host) 8:46:59 AM
hope you're brewing some good coffee this morning
jimbrewe 8:48:54 AM
i brewed a big ol' pot of espresso and am working it thru it!
Krista (host) 8:50:47 AM
that would kill me, I think! One cup of coffee is enough to wire me all day! once in a while I'll have a shot of espresso (more before my cheap espresso machine killed itself)
Krista (host) 8:52:27 AM
it boiled through its seal and then boiled the controls!
Christine Duffy 8:52:51 AM
Aw, Hi young man! 💙
Krista (host) 8:54:56 AM
he burst in! Meyer had a sock on his hand, a game he invented called "sock a lock" - the sock a lock is a talking being that eats remote controls and grass
Mark 9:11:19 AM
2 enlightening discussions today: the March hare & effect of rain on crabs 🦀!
Brian D 9:14:33 AM
Good morning. Loved hearing the Irish tunes. If you drink regular coffee daily in 12 oz or more cup you are probably going to drink more caffeine than if you drank espresso . Unless you drank an insane amount of espresso. Espresso may have more caffeine by volume but usually it's taken in small shots. So a 12oz cup or more of reg coffee has more caffeine than a shot of espresso. It's just dark and strong tasting so that adds to the wow factor too
Krista (host) 9:16:53 AM
I have a dainty cup, Brian! I think it holds between 7 and 8 ounces. Not 8 full ounces, I tried filling it from the measuring cup and that was too much.
Brian D 9:18:37 AM
And the beverage of the week for some Guinness stout often scares people by the color and bitter (for some) taste. But it is low in alcohol . Not a high calorie beverage as far as alcoholic beverages go
Krista (host) 9:20:42 AM
I remember reading the calorie count and being surprised by it. It feels thick in the mouth.
Brian D 9:22:30 AM
The ancient practice of dark brewed beverages that get color & flavor from roasted plant matter. Yeah, feel can be misleading. I hear people constantly say stout is "heavy "and I just can't understand that. But... different perceptions...
Brian D 9:27:45 AM
Had no idea about the popularity of St Pat's in Asia. Great info Krista
Krista (host) 9:32:11 AM
here's an article about irish cuisine on wikipedia that is fascinating
Krista (host) 9:32:15 AM

Krista (host) 9:32:46 AM
yes Brian, I would love to visit Malaysia in general, but the celebration would be fun to attend!
Brian D 9:50:28 AM
Oh that article is just delicious....
Christine Duffy 9:52:22 AM
Seafood lover here. I clicked on the article, and was tempted by the fresh mackerel. Holy mackerel!
Brian D 9:56:14 AM
Nothing like fresh grown potatoes. So much different than store bought. Creamy & delicious

Yes, I grow heirloom varieties from the Andes, so we had some really nutty flavored ones and an heirloom from Germany that was low glycemic
James Anderson 9:57:47 AM
This is my favorite potato song ...
James Anderson 9:58:04 AM
Really enjoying the show today!
Christine Duffy 9:58:11 AM
Thanks for enriching our collective habitats this morning, Krista!
James Anderson 10:00:05 AM
Wow! I didnt know you could pull things up that fast.
Krista (host) 10:00:10 AM
I know the song!
Brian D 10:00:11 AM
I was checking out the fiddle tune Little Rabbit (also paired/ associated with Rabbit Where's Your Mammy). Old reel
Brian D 10:00:21 AM
Great show Krista!
Krista (host) 10:00:26 AM
so I can play it without previeiwing too much. See you next week!
