Thanks for the good thoughts. We listen to "Thistle and Shamrock" every week. Sometime when you're not having too much fun with Pandora, you could give "A Thousand Welcomes" (http://www.wfuv.org/programs/athousandwelcomes.html) a try over at wfuv.org, either archived or as it streams on Saturday mornings. Great traditional-Irish-music show broadcast from Fordham University in New York City.

You do need to be self-motivating to get the most out of Rosetta Stone, although it gets kind of addictive, like a video game, and provides its own motivation through fun, at least for me. :)
