- Mike's field of expertise straddles the Irish sea. His CZcams channel, Clans and Dynasties, deals with clans in both Ireland and Scotland. In this discussion, we cover the foundations of the Scottish clans, the relationship between the Highland and Irish clans, as well as the Galloglass mercenaries.

It was an absolute pleasure to be invited on. Thank you so very much.
Good conversation, gents, I enjoyed it.
Excellent episode. Having just done an ancestry DNA test it turns out that I'm an expat Isle of Skye Robertson, but in the Irish R-A541 haplogroup, linking me to the Eóganachta, which is pretty cool. Just waiting on the Big-Y results to come in so I can really dig into it all and begin the journey towards finding something out about how my Irish ancestors ended up in Scotland.
Great episode Clint. I just subscribed to Clans and Dynasties.
I really appreciate that, Thank you so very much.
I am glad that Mike's interest was piqued, because that pique effect is infectious. I wonder whether either of you have found ways to get a smattering of Irish and/or Scottish Gaelic. I am new to your channels and wonder whether you know of Linda Ervine of Túras - she is a very inspiring person who is determined to make it clear that languages belong to all, irrespective of background, and she never hides the reality that Irish & Scottish cultural heritage is deeply & intricately intertwined. Thanks and best wishes to each of you in your own small corners, yet reaching out.
Thanks for the response. A smattering at best ;).
Having tested my DNA with Ancestry and shared it with MyHeritage, the results were very Eurocentric, but apart from having now identified tons of Scottish Stewart DNA, I'm also about 23% Scandinavian, including my Norwegian and Swedish viking ancestors that assimilated into my Ancestral Scottish clans. Thanks for sharing!

The Stewarts are of Norman heritage.
Actually, Breton. ;)

There's been too much shite written about the so called clans of Scotland.
Very informative. Thank you. I didnt see you pick up the tremendous influence of the numerous irish missionaries. Not just Columba, but Catan, Blane etc etc.
That would have been another hour of discussion but interesting nonetheless. Thanks for that!
