  • Wonderful Program

    Simply Scottish is a most enjoyable podcast on all things Scottish. There is something for everyone here. With a lively mix of history, memories and music one is bound to find something they enjoy. Andrew does a fantastic job of bringing the land we all love into our lives if but only for a few minutes. I could listen to many episodes while at the office and often do just that.

    Really nice to stream again. To Michael (mate), tasting so many eggs while aged 7 can trigger allergic reaction afterwards. Thanks

  • Yes! I love this show!

    Ah, Scotland and her people - what’s it they say? “Wha’s like us? Nah bloody many!”. And this podcast captures this perfectly - a wonderful collection of tales, facts, and anecdotes about the beauty of Scotland and her music. Thank you for this show, Andrew, from a Scotsman now thousands of miles away in Canada.
