Summary

The remote islands of Scotland are known to be home to folk with the second sight. Alasdair tells James the story of three gifted seers, each of whom came to a sticky end. (In one case, literally. Barrel of tar, innit?) This is a bumper episode for new ways to exploit the Loremen brand. We're talking a new TV show, a dark reboot of the name Kenneth, and a brand new music genre combining Drum & Bass with the Irish playwright George Bernard-Shaw. And, yes, these ideas are all copyrighted! P.S. Keep listening after the music for a clip from this week's bonus episode, available in full to our Patreons.
