The Medieval Irish History Podcast is hosted by Dr Niamh Wycherley. Two recent episodes focus on Brigit: "St Brigid in Continental Europe with Prof. Jean-Michel Picard” and "Performing Early Irish Poetry — Brigid’s Day Bonus Episode.” The Medieval Irish History Podcast is available on various platforms: Podbean, Podtail, Spotify, Apple, and more. There doesn’t seem to be a website to act as a central hub, so I will give links to Podbean, or you can find it elsewhere. The bonus episode is a lovely opportunity to hear Old Irish poems about Brigit in the original language and in English.
From the show notes: “This podcast shows that medieval Irish history is complex and dynamic — not at all stuffy or static. Via lively and engaging chats with leading experts, it explores aspects of a largely ignored, but commonly evoked, period, and shares new and exciting research on medieval Ireland. medievalirishhistory@gmail.com Supported by the Dept of Early Irish, Maynooth University & Taighde Éireann."
