about<00:00:44.539><c> what</c><00:00:44.679><c> it</c><00:00:44.799><c> means</c><00:00:44.920><c> to</c><00:00:45.100><c> be</c><00:00:45.219><c> raised</c><00:00:45.539><c> Irish.</c>

00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:50.420

It<00:00:49.299><c> might</c><00:00:49.460><c> surprise</c><00:00:49.799><c> you,</c><00:00:49.960><c> or</c><00:00:50.000><c> maybe</c><00:00:50.200><c> not,</c>

that<00:00:50.619><c> I</c><00:00:50.840><c> was</c><00:00:51.240><c> no</c><00:00:51.460><c> better</c><00:00:51.619><c> at</c><00:00:51.840><c> being</c><00:00:52.100><c> Irish</c>

00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:55.320

than<00:00:53.340><c> I</c><00:00:53.460><c> was</c><00:00:53.679><c> at</c><00:00:53.799><c> being</c><00:00:54.240><c> Catholic.</c>

00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:58.740
x
First<00:00:56.640><c> of</c><00:00:56.840><c> all,</c><00:00:57.060><c> I'm</c><00:00:57.740><c> actually</c><00:00:58.000><c> only</c><00:00:58.219><c> half</c><00:00:58.460><c> Irish.</c>

00:00:58.740 --> 00:01:00.119
x
When<00:00:59.100><c> in</c><00:00:59.259><c> heaven,</c><00:00:59.359><c> even</c><00:00:59.439><c> like</c><00:00:59.640><c> Sullivan,</c><00:00:59.939><c> everybody</c>

00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:04.560

thinks<00:01:00.420><c> that</c><00:01:00.640><c> you're</c><00:01:02.460><c> a</c><00:01:02.719><c> bona</c><00:01:02.920><c> fide</c><00:01:03.200><c> Irishman.</c>

00:01:05.460 --> 00:01:06.840
x
But<00:01:05.900><c> I'm</c><00:01:06.340><c> really</c><00:01:06.540><c> not.</c>

00:01:06.939 --> 00:01:07.760
x
I<00:01:07.060><c> never</c><00:01:07.359><c> thought</c><00:01:07.599><c> that.</c>

00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:10.040
x
Thank<00:01:08.239><c> you.</c>

00:01:11.100 --> 00:01:13.819
x
Partly<00:01:11.540><c> because,</c><00:01:12.079><c> again,</c><00:01:12.760><c> I'm</c><00:01:13.060><c> only</c><00:01:13.319><c> half</c><00:01:13.560><c> Irish.</c>

00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:15.040
x
The<00:01:13.980><c> other</c><00:01:14.120><c> half</c><00:01:14.299><c> of</c><00:01:14.439><c> me</c><00:01:14.560><c> is</c><00:01:14.719><c> Scottish.</c>

00:01:15.180 --> 00:01:18.239
x
And<00:01:15.299><c> no</c><00:01:15.480><c> Scotsman</c><00:01:15.840><c> will</c><00:01:16.060><c> ever</c><00:01:16.840><c> admit</c><00:01:17.079><c> that</c><00:01:17.260><c> they're</c><00:01:17.480><c> Irish.</c>

00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:21.680
x
But<00:01:20.519><c> my</c><00:01:20.840><c> father's</c><00:01:21.180><c> side</c><00:01:21.280><c> was</c><00:01:21.500><c> Irish.</c>

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.280
x
And<00:01:21.840><c> we</c><00:01:21.920><c> weren't</c><00:01:22.040><c> that</c><00:01:22.299><c> close</c><00:01:22.420><c> to</c><00:01:22.540><c> my</c><00:01:22.700><c> father's</c><00:01:23.120><c> side.</c>

00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:27.400
x
So<00:01:23.519><c> I</c><00:01:23.840><c> actually</c><00:01:24.560><c> relate</c><00:01:24.939><c> more</c><00:01:25.180><c> to</c><00:01:25.359><c> the</c><00:01:25.579><c> Scottish</c><00:01:26.040><c> side</c>

00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:31.180

00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:35.340
x
However,<00:01:33.219><c> I</c><00:01:33.439><c> was</c><00:01:33.920><c> raised</c><00:01:34.400><c> Irish.</c>
