Thank you for doing these videos, Eddie. Not all of our parents know the stories and folklore, it's great to have a source of knowledge for our customs. You're doing important work, and I appreciate it greatly!

Hi Eddie, I thoroughly enjoyed Biddy Early Part 1 and look forward to Part 2 and more! Your fondness and respect for her shines through your storytelling and it's encouraging that here in 2020, she is remembered, and spoken of, so warmly. Cheers, Kitty.

Just found this channel and I didn't grow up in Ireland or hear these stories but the way you tell them puts me in mind of when I was little and my granny would tell me and my siblings bedtime stories from memory. It's lovely.

Some of the powers and cures attributed to Biddy Early and other healing women seem to also have been attributed to the druids of ancient Ireland. Might she have been practicing knowledge passed down from ancient times, and might the druids and other healing women have had bottles like the one Biddy Early had?

"She wasn't a witch. She was a Bean Feasa, Wise woman, herbalist, curing woman and psychologist " Well my friend. You just described a witch. A rose by any other name is still a rose. Nothing wrong with being a witch, but that's what she was.

[@daneglance7205]

Oh yes. Extremely.

[@funhousebaby3104]

Think you might be missing a little more of the story there pal

[@Timberdoodle197]

[@keithking1985]

maybe Biddy was a changeling herself, and done good things for people to try and get into heaven when she died.
