    Ep. 4 In Praise of Crookedness

    We're back with the great Swami Moriarty – Ireland’s Ram Dass, our very own Terence McKenna. Wondering what Yeats would have made of him. Would he have thought he had stumbled upon an actual druid? Had him plucked, stuffed and mounted in the National Museum? So many big questions in such a short space of time, such as are there bulbs of emerald green consciousness within us? And what to do with a woman from a wagon dressed in a shawl of all her chakras?

    Ep. 3 Luring night-walkers and horses to the yard

    Moriarty explains how a river can call itself back into the eternity out of which it came, and leads us into a time that is older than the time of chronometers.  Meet John's mother, a sovereignty goddess, with her womb of turf and eggs, and his father, king of the byre, haggard, and pig sty, basking in the low light of his lantern hanging from a nail in the rafter.  Support the show https://www.lilliputpress.ie/collections/vendors?q=Moriarty,%20John&sort_by=title-ascending johnmoriarty.ie manchan.com instagram.com/manchanmagan Produced by Ronan Coleman

    Ep 2. The Dumbledore of Irish deep-thinking on Commonage Consciousness

    Moriarty, the Dumbledore of Irish deep thinking,  connects an Inuit hunting ritual to the Christian mass and from there bounces off to a memory of cattle being loaded near Galway train station.  He addresses the notion of sinning against a blade of grass and the risks of living from the mathematical forefront of our brains Support the show https://www.lilliputpress.ie/collections/vendors?q=Moriarty,%20John&sort_by=title-ascending johnmoriarty.ie manchan.com instagram.com/manchanmagan Produced by Ronan Coleman

    Ep 1. Hailstones in your Face

    'All ground is holy ground,' says the great John Moriarty, the great Kerryman who was half-carnival huckster, half bottle-eyed druid, with a little bit of narcissistic Catholic bishop thrown in. Listen up as he tells us to 'come home to earth' and to 'enfranchise the universe'. Where else would you get it?
