Gather round, because Kerry Graham and Rab Fulton have stories to tell. The Celtic Tales Chronicles Podcast springs from the live, world-famous Celtic Tales storytelling nights, bringing that same crackling energy and dark humor directly to your ears. Each episode is a journey along Ireland’s rugged Wild Atlantic Coastline, but you won’t just hear about the scenery. Instead, you’ll be pulled into a hidden world of lore where history and legend violently collide. The tales you’ll encounter here are as unpredictable as the western weather-one moment you’re laughing at a host’s wry aside, the next you’re gripped by a account of spectral pirates or a lonely island with a deadly secret. This isn’t a dry history lesson; it’s a living collection of the strange, the tragic, and the absurd, all rooted in a specific, windswept place. Expect encounters with everything from ancient portals and bewildering extraterrestrial sightings to figures from a darker colonial past, all delivered with the hosts’ signature blend of enthusiasm and sly comedy. The result is a uniquely immersive podcast that feels like sitting in a pub with the best storytellers you’ve ever met. Whether you’re planning a trip to the wild west of Ireland or just love a brilliantly told yarn from the comfort of your home, these chronicles offer a side of the country the guidebooks never dare to mention.
