Geis I: A Medieval Irish Jinx of Doom–Irish History - a podcast by B. T. Newberg and history nerd friends

Remember when your sister jinxed you so you couldn't talk till your mom said it was okay? A geis is kinda like that, except if you talk you die! A geis (plural geassa) is a soul-binding rule that kills you. We talk geassa and honor in this first episode of our EPIC-length series on the medieval Irish geis!
