Brent met up in Dublin with Grainne Lawlor from Flavour Trails last summer where she told Brent about the little rooms in pubs called snugs and the new tours she has planned for her company. Now that those tours are live, Grainne is back to tell Brent about the storytelling tour and storytelling tradition, creatures like banshees and the Puca, and Halloween traditions in Ireland. Plus, lots of whiskey recommendations, daytrips to Cliffs of Moher, Donegal, and much more! [Ep 362]
