Delightfully unpredictable & exceedingly silly. Nothing is safe or sacred (except the mayor's cat) and everything is hilarious in this singular Irish town.
Whether dishing up the minutiae of daily life or immersing us in extraordinary events, anything involving the madcap inhabitants of Dunbracken is worth your time.
The performers are clearly having a brilliant time surprising each other with choices that make them laugh. That joy is infectious. So is the town's mascot. You've been warned.

If you want a whiff of slightly silly surreal stuff from an odd little part of Ireland, Dunbracken is the place.

United Kingdoma year ago - One of my new favourites
I found this AD through Evo Terra/The End’s audio fiction e-newsletters, and from the very first episode I was hooked (I’m up to ep23 so far)!!
This is an absolute banger of a show - if you like Monty Python-esque skit humour (but set in a small, weird Irish town), terrific voice acting, and a loveable cast of (often ridiculous) characters, then you’ll probably love this.
I think one of my favourite things about this podcast is that you can really hear just how much fun everyone is having whi... more
