Irish Women Pirates. Part One - The Pirate Queen

In this first episode of Season Two, Rab and Kerry take a deep dive into The Pirate Queen herself, Granuaile, as she fights, loves, gives birth in the middle of a sea battle, and finally shows Queen Elizabeth Tudor who's the real boss. Clarification: Rab gets his dates mixed up at one point and says 1856 instead of 1586.  Follow Rab on instagram @celtictalesgalway Follow @TheKerryGraham on instagram and Substack.  Follow the show on tiktok @celtictaleschronicles Tickets to the Celtic Tales storytelling show from https://ie.powertik.com/events/celtic-tales-storytelling-show Buy Rab’s books at https://ko-fi.com/celtictalesgalway/shop Music: Achaidh Cheide by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/   Sources Chambers, Anne.
