Folkcast

In this month's show: A feast of storytelling in song - two true tales of sporting endeavour that end in disaster and death; a biographical story of a young woman finding her identity while hitchhiking to Ireland; we visit the circus, and go to the beach, and we've a couple of songs by men with no name - or rather, men with two names. And we've another Story Behind The Song, with FolkCast's own badger-bothering, island dwelling history hobo, Babba. And after that, we'll hear about a pasta-based god and the Queen of Hearts, with not a jam tart in sight.
