Over the years we have learned that listeners to NPR's The Thistle & Shamrock are neither shy nor retiring, if the sheer volume of mail is anything to go by. Sharing a little about themselves and giving us insight into the role music plays in their lives, they have created a real listening community. The importance of radio to individuals everywhere resonates through these selected excerpts, and this obviously endures even in our downloadable, podcastable, multi-channel age. Thanks to everyone who has ever taken the time to write to us. We'll excerpt one special e-mail or letter each month and send a CD of an artist heard on our radio program to say thanks for every one we feature. We're always pleased to hear from you at: The Thistle & Shamrock, PO Box 518, Matthews, NC 28106 USA or

“I live in a rather remote area of the Florida coast, with black bears, bald eagles and deer at my back door, and dolphin, pelicans and blue crabs at my front door. I do not watch television, nor do I subscribe to a large newspaper. Your show is perfect for my lifestyle and adds a richness which I anticipate every weekend.”

“Thank you, our host, for your clean, informative and precise display of the creme’ de la creme’ of the day. I look forward to your (next) show from the moment the one before ends....”
