If someone was to describe this to me there's no way would I think this should work but it's brilliant and Its the only podcast I can watch from start to finish and be engaged the whole way though. Keep up the good work.
Brilliant podcast. Love Cairans rants, esp. when he goes off on the emperor. Would love to see you look at Irish myths/histories like around Mad Sweeney or Abhartach and see which parts you think are real
A wee episode on Alexander the Great's conquests, the fallout of his death and, for Shane's enjoyment, Pompey Magnus claiming to wear his armour in his triumph. Think Ciaran would be in his element, and there's plenty diddies if you use the Oliver Stone film for references!

You guys are just too good XD Would love to see you guys with Markus, also known as Dankula, on the next Podcast because he's got some wild Myths he knows of from Scotland
The 'Historical Jesus' has always fascinated me. Always wondered what the actual dude would make of 2000 years of questionable acts carried out in his name.
I heard a discussion among several academics from small Christian groups from Africa and the Middle East (Coptic, Ethiopian Orthodox, Maronite) who claimed that European Christians confuse 3 different artefacts. IOW, Jesus' personal cup from the last supper was separate from the larger cup/small bowl used for serving wine to the apostles, and a third cup was used at Golgotha to catch blood from the side wound. I recall them saying that neither cup from the last supper would have been handy at the crucifiction, where they would have been surrounded by enemies.
Another reason why it may have been brought to Spain is that there was a Jewish settlement in Southern Spain called Tarshish that the Apostle Paul visited . Also Joseph of Aremathea was a tin merchant who would have had trade contacts around the Med and Atlantic .
