About this listen

Gavin & Anne are BACK with a bumper episode from an iconic location!

Join us as we venture beyond Co. Down to visit Boa Island in Co. Fermanagh, for a very special Spring visit.

We cover:

  • acid jazz (!),
  • news from the world of Irish archaeology & history,
  • Turlough O'Carolan's Fermanagh connection,

& come up with new theories about the meaning behind the famous 'Janus' statue & the possible origins of the Sheela la Na Gig!
