Episode 76 The Death of Conchubar Mac Nessa - Post Show Chat

Third in our Death Series is the strange and prolonged death of Conchubar Mac Nessa, King of Ulster, and in this episode we chat about the connection he had with the one and only Jesus Christ. Timely too seeing as its just gone Christmas and the celebration of the birth of the same man… but this episode is dedicated to a boy born on the 26th of December 2020, and that boys name is Anthony Nahual Hegarty, our brothers first born child.

Now back to th mythology... Conchubar is a wily king and remembered as a great leader. As well as sound judgement, he was a man of great beauty, and great vanity. Over the years, we’ve come to wonder at his wonderful reputation, but there’s no doubt that he left a lasting legacy. At some time in the retelling of this tale, Concubar’s birth and death was linked with another mythic figure, from far away, in the East.
