Episode 31 - Midir and Etain

National Leprechaun Museum Talking Stories

Paudie shares the surreal and magical love story of Midir and Etain, two star-crossed lovers who navigate time, space, and games of Irish chess to be together. Mark and Deirdre discuss the story along with Midir and Etain's happy and unhappy endings, if blame and fault are helpful when discussing a story, and encountering lads like Midir on Tinder.
