Sinopse

Yeats and the Good People.Here at Encounters with the Good People, we love to look at modern encounters and sightings of the Good People but… know there is much to be learned from looking at the ‘old’ tales too and more, they also give us a raw insight into the everyday lives and values of our Ancestors.In this episode we begin our celebration of those wonderful folk who have dedicated their energy and passion to collecting the tales we value so highly.We begin with a look at William Butler Yeats. No, not the immensely successful and influential poet, playwright and Nobel winner, we look at the man himself and his own relationship with the Good People.The connection between himself and those he collected tales from. The inspiration he found in the land of his Ancestors, and his legacy in the 21st century.We look at his candid championing of the Good People and fierce defence of Irish folk who dared to believe in things unseen.In her quest to promote positivity, Kitty announces a terrific prize giveaway.
