Celtic Soul Extra: Jay Baruchel and Eoin O'Callaghan practice hurling in the warm up room at Croke Park. Hurling is of ancient Gaelic and Irish origin, and has been an Irish pasttime for over 2,000 years.
See additional footage from our documentary feature "Celtic Soul" at celticsoul.ca, and check back every Wednesday as we release a new video from Jay and Eoin's #CelticRoadtrip!
Celtic Soul follows Canadian actor and funny man Jay Baruchel on an epic road trip through Canada, Ireland and Scotland with his new friend, well-known Irish soccer journalist Eoin O’Callaghan. It’s a story that spans 200 years of colorful history and that will take the duo eastward from Montreal to Westport, Ireland – where Jay’s ancestors set sail for Canada, like so many others – and finally Glasgow, where Jay will fulfill a lifelong dream: to watch a match at Celtic Park, one of the wildest and most hallowed grounds in world football.
