Description

The National Leprechaun Museum Podcast returns after a few months break, and it's great to talk to you again! In this episode Mark and Paudie take a deep dive into some of their favourite characters in Irish stories, and ask why we love baddies, why all-powerful heroes can be a bit boring, and should we judge characters from thousands of years ago by modern standards? How do we use storytelling to relate to ourselves and each other?

If you have any question you'd like us to answer, topics you'd like us to discuss, or stories you'd like us to tell, tweet us at @leprechaun_ie #AskAStoryteller.

Featuring Paudie Holly and Mark Ó Géaráin.

Recorded in the National Leprechaun Museum of Ireland
