Paudie returns to the podcast today to bring us The Great Potato, the captivating story of a woman who puts her skills in exaggeration and embellishment to the test... But to what end?
Mark is joined by podcast-newcomer Tara, as they discuss the history and uses of the potato in Ireland and Irish folklore, and their own personal relationship with what is probably the best food of all time.
If you have any questions you’d like us to answer, topics you’d like us to discuss, or stories you would like us to tell, tweet us at @leprechaun_ie with #AskAStoryteller or find us on Instagram @leprechaunmuseum.
Featuring Mark Ó Géaráin and Tara Ferguson. The Great Potato is told by Paudie Holly.
Recorded in the National Leprechaun Museum of Ireland.
