Episode 35 - Éachtach Live (Sugar Club)

We found the story of Éachtach in Richard Marsh’s book, Irish King and Hero Tales, translated from an Old Irish poem. And we’ve found it nowhere else.

She’s the daughter of Diarmuid and Gráinne, two of the most famous characters in Irish mythology, and a formidable warrior who defeated the great Captain of the Fianna, Fionn Mac Cumhaill, and isn’t it strange that nobody has ever heard of her?

This telling was recorded live at the Sugar Club in Dublin in February 2020. Told by Sorcha Hegarty with music by Oisín Ryan, Ru O’Sé and Audrey Trainor. This podcast was produced and edited by Oisín Ryan. We will be talking about this podcast in our live streamed chat on the 25th of April.
