| 0:00.0 | Hi, everyone. You are listening to Radio Cherry Bomb, and I'm your host, Carrie Diamond. |
| 0:10.3 | Today's guest is Ali Dunworth, joining me from a studio in Dublin, Ireland. |
| 0:15.5 | Allie is the author of a compendium of Irish Pints, The Culture, Customs, and Crack.. That's crack, spelled C-R-A-I-C. |
| 0:24.0 | Allie will tell us what that means in just a minute. She's a new friend of mine, so I am thrilled |
| 0:28.4 | to welcome her to the show. We cover a lot of ground on today's episode. We talk about the |
| 0:33.1 | Gaelic Revolution and why everyone is obsessed with Irish actors, musicians, authors, TV shows, |
| 0:39.2 | fashion designers, even Irish butter these days. We also chat about the new Irish bank holiday, |
| 0:45.1 | St. Bridget's Day, which celebrates the female patron saint of Ireland. It's nice to see |
| 0:50.1 | St. Bridget get some equal billing alongside St. Patrick. Happy St. Bridget's Day to all who are |
| 0:55.1 | celebrating. And of course, we talk about Irish pints, why it's so trendy in America to have a |

| 1:12.4 | brand new neighbor. They opened a cool new store at the world-famous Rockefeller Center in Manhattan, |
| 1:17.8 | right next to where we record our show. I can literally see inside their store from where I'm sitting |
| 1:22.7 | and be a nosy neighbor. So, what's the neighborhood gossip? Well, it looks like the spring collection |
| 1:29.0 | has arrived at Alex Mill. I spy striped shirts, which I have a total weakness for, a USA-made sweatshirt |
| 1:35.4 | in Cherry Bomb Pink that I can dress up or down, lots of vintage-inspired denim, even the cutest |
| 1:41.2 | pajamas from their P. Jimmy's co-lab with Jimmy Fallon. I'm a big Alex Mill fan and own several of their pieces that I wear again and again. |
| 1:50.0 | Alex Mill is one of those brands that simplifies your closet. |
| 1:53.0 | I can throw on any of their pieces and look cool, classic, and pull together, |
| 1:57.0 | whether I've put on my Alex Mill slim cargo jeans or grabbed my monogram tote. I love that their |
| 2:02.5 | clothing and accessories are thoughtfully designed, well-made, timeless, and fun. Alex Mill is all about |
