Conas taoi? How are ye? Welcome back to Candlelit Tales, the podcast where we tell Irish myths, carried by an original musical score. We’ve told many stories on this podcast, and we chat about these myths in separate episodes along the way. We recently wrapped up our Fianna Saga, and we're taking a well-earned break from storytelling to bring you a few longer, more relaxed chats with some brilliant people in our mythic community that we think our audiences will resonate with. In this episode, Aron sits down with Bobbo the Bard. Bobo became a TikTok sensation over lockdown after visiting many sacred sights across Ireland, bringing his handpan, and tapping into his own bardic flow state through poetry and melody. We met one memorable evening a few years ago on the Hill of Tara, around the fire where we both told stories and realised we were inspired by one another. He’s been a fan of the podcast for a long time too, and after numerous messages back and forth, we have finally managed to make this chat possible. 🕯️ A note on this episode: The first 10 minutes are free for everyone to enjoy. The rest of this conversation is for the Candlelit Crew — our members and supporters — who keep this podcast lit. If you'd like to hear the full chat and support the work we do, you can join us here: 👉 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/candlelittales 👉 YouTube Members: https://www.youtube.com/@CandlelitTales In this episode, we explore mythic landscapes, bardic traditions, IMBAS and the desire to connect to these older traditions in a new and liberating way. We hope you enjoy this chat as much as Aron did.
