Irish Gothic: Cú Chulainn, Part One

In this episode of Irish Gothic, Spence Wright and Chris Patterson begin the story of Cú Chulainn, one of the great warrior figures of Irish mythology.

Born as Setanta, he is a child marked by strength, violence, destiny, and terrible promise. From his early life to the moment he takes on the name Cú Chulainn, Part One looks at the making of a hero whose legend is as brutal as it is enduring.

This is not a clean heroic tale. It is a story of blood, honour, prophecy, rage, and the old world of Ulster myth.

Join us as we step into a world of warriors, kings, omens, and the boy who would become the Hound of Ulster.

Presented by Spence Wright and Chris Patterson.

Welcome to Season 4 of the Irish Gothic Podcast.

In this episode, we explore The Morrígan, one of the most powerful and unsettling figures in Irish mythology.

Associated with war, fate, prophecy and death, The Morrígan appears across early Irish texts as a goddess, shapeshifter and omen of conflict. Often linked to crows and ravens, she moves between the battlefield and the supernatural, warning of bloodshed and influencing the fate of warriors and kings.

We look at the stories behind her legend, her connection to Cú Chulainn, and why The Morrígan still holds such a strong place in Irish folklore and modern culture.
