EPISODE THREE : THE GIANT'S CAUSEWAY
Notes de l’épisode
In today's episode, we travel down through the hexagonal stoned landscape of County Antrim's Giant's Causeway. Made up of some 40,000 massive black basalt columns sticking out of the sea, this dramatic sight has inspired legends of giants striding over the sea to Scotland. In this episode, Chris and Spence discuss the legendary Finn McCool, and unearth some lesser known giants from this land.
