Irish Mythology Podcast Summer 2021 Trailer

Marcas and Stephie adapt and retell famous, and not so famous stories from Irish Mythology and Folklore. 

Each episode features a dramatic reading of one of these tales, along with a deep dive into the original versions that they are adapted from. 

Encounter mighty warriors, druids, witches, demons, monsters, gods, fairies, ghosts, saints, and scholars as we travel to magical locations in the Irish otherworld - below the ground, under the sea, in the sky and beyond the realm of comprehension.

The Fomorians are under attack! The invaders' plan to conquer Ireland has been severely disrupted by none other than the daughter of their king, Indech Mac Dé Domhnainn.
