170: #170 | Well, Well, Well: Vampires, Evil Fish and Holy Wells
from Motherfoclóir · host HeadStuff Podcasts
Are things holy because we need them or do we need them because they're holy? This is something that we consider on this week's episode when holy wells are discussed. Are the legends and myths about holy wells just a roundabout way of explaining what their purpose is? Why are there so many in Limerick? What does Ryan Tubridy's surname mean? We also discuss the theory that zombie movies are more popular under Republican presidents and vampire movies are more popular under the Democrats.
