Cup Runneth

About this episode

In County Cork, Ireland, there’s a tree that locals call the Chalice Tree. Local lore says it’s where British Redcoats disrupted a secret Catholic mass, killed two priests and took a sacred chalice.

Now that chalice sits in London’s Victoria & Albert Museum.

But what happened in the intervening 200 years is now being pieced together by two Irish families: the O’Keeffes and the McAulliffe’s.

Season Two is co-produced with CBC Podcasts.
