  • S2 Ep7: Not sponsored by Antonio Banderas - Part 2
    2021/06/23
    Sometimes the amazing stories of real-life characters are hijacked by myths and the essence of what makes them great is sometimes overlooked. Part 2 continues the story of one such character, a legend in Mexico but almost unheard of in his homeland of Ireland. William Lamport lived an incredible life, from the tender age of 14 he had a King's ransom on his head, and in Mexico, he would write a Declaration of Independence that shook the foundations of the Spanish Empire and marked him out as someone ahead of his time. So why did Zorro hijack him and hide him from us for all these years? Stay, and have a listen Follow us on Instagram @crannogfilms

  • S2 Ep4: Not Sponsored by Roadstone
    2021/03/16
    HedgeRadio ignores the old advice of not following stones and does just that. We try to discover the secrets held by neolithic rock art that was hidden for hundreds of years in a farmers hedgerow while at the same time we go wandering with local artist and folklorist Michael Fortune as he explains the attraction to wart stones and bullaun stones. What we didn't expect to find was the stone crosses that Oliver Cromwell destroyed on his rampage through Ireland. Stay and have a listen. Support us on Patreon
