The Voyage Beyond the Map: "St. Brendan the Navigator"
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Long before maps named the world, the Irish monk Brendan set sail into the fog, searching not for conquest, but for the Promised Land of the Saints. In this richly imagined retelling of a medieval Christian voyage tale, New American Mythos brings listeners through burning islands, singing birds, and the trembling silence of mystery. What Brendan finds is not new territory, but a deeper truth: the solid ground we trust may not be ground at all, and true rest lies beyond the edge of our certainty.
