Customer Reviews
This podcast never disappoints!
I found this podcast years ago when they were mention on My Favorite Murder, and I keep coming back to it! Such a wonderful breath of fresh air, you feel as though you’re sitting around the campfire with good friends, or listening to a friend tell their story over a glass of wine. The hosts always out do themselves with wonderfully theatric story telling and make you feel like a dear friend.
I love this podcast!
As an American who is 75% Irish according to my mother, I love love this podcast. I knew of some Irish and Celtic folklore but I am learning so much more. As an aside, I am also delighted at all the Terry Pratchett references.
Love it!
The storytelling is lovely and just great for getting into the Halloween mood! Only thing I would ask is that the hosts please speak closer to the mic or more loudly! Their volume is usually fine when they’re telling the stories, but the conversational parts can be very difficult to hear and I have to constantly readjust the volume. Other than that, a fantastic podcast!
