Episode 16 - Brigid

What this episode covers

Brigid, woman, wife, witch, goddess, abbess, saint… not to mention a smith, a farmer, and a poet. This one stop shop is a stalwart of feminism, protection and care, but how much do we really know about Brigid? Transcripts for our episodes are available on www.cogarnagaoithe.com and feel free to send an email, or comment on the episode in Spotify or Apple Podcasts if you have any questions or comments. I can only apologise on behalf of Dorothy because she unashamedly purred through this entire recording, and screeched loud enough to be heard through soundproofing when I ejected her from the office, I did what I could. This episode is in no way explicit, and I managed not to swear, but there is discussion of St Brigid’s Virginity and the miracles she performed in order to qualify for beatification, so if that isn’t something you’re comfortable with, no bother, sure we’ll chat to ya next time when we’re back with the Tuatha Dé Danann in the mythological cycle.
