Summon the luck o' the Irish — The Latest on APN — March 12-18

As enthusiastic bar patrons celebrated their first real St. Patrick's Day since 2019, we got to poking around in our slushy backyards this week, looking for four-leaf clovers. With "normalcy" being re-instated on all manner of activities in Alberta, we're thinking we could use all the luck we can get looking ahead. It's also the full moon tonight — really, we're trying to cover all the bases here. 

As ever, the APN crew has got the list of all-new episodes ready for your weekend exploits. Enjoy the melt, and stay dry out there!
