A Celtic Sojourn host Brian O'Donovan joined Jim Braude and Margery Eagan Wednesday on Boston Public Radio. O'Donovan is a live music devotee. He brought recommendations for local music and spoken-word events for listeners to check out. And O'Donovan repeated his now-familiar mantra, too: turn off Game of Thrones, go out to see a show.

Big Mouth Off 6: Mass Mouth Storytelling Festival, April 30th.
