Description

Eleanor has a wide-ranging conversation with museum director Tom O'Rahilly about the power of live oral storytelling, the state of storytelling in Europe, and where the idea for the National Leprechaun Museum came from. And they listen to a story! Deirdre tells a story of two lads in Cork who give some rich folks more than they bargained for, literally. Plus, some news from Eleanor.
