The Proposal - Fianna Saga (Irish Mythology Podcast)

Conas taoi? How are ye? Welcome back to the Candlelit Tales podcast, where we tell Irish myths set to original music. In this episode, we’re starting on a seven-part mini-arc of one of the great love stories of Irish mythology: The Pursuit of Diarmuid and Gráinne. We had a long conversation about how to contextualise this story within the Fianna Saga that we’ve been working on - that’s going to be up on Patreon along with all our post-show chats and reflections! Artwork for this arc is provided by the incredible Maria Magee, fine artist and, incidentally, mother of Aron and Sorcha! You can find more of her work on instagram @mariamagee.ie Please note the content of these stories may be triggering for some listeners, please take care of yourself as you listen.
