Folk tales have been important to us for centuries, but in the grand span of their existence we only started writing them down relatively recently. In this episode of the Folklore Podcast, we are joined by Scottish storyteller Allison Galbraith, who is one of those who not only tells in person, but also commits stories to print.

Amongst these is the tale Zombie Cow, which she performs as part of this episode and which we couldn't resist using as an episode title.

This episode is a rich investigation into the art of storytelling, the written word and much more.
