  • Syncretic saint lore with Polish Folk Witch Joanna Tarnawska

    Syncretic saint lore with Polish Folk Witch Joanna Tarnawska
    Mar 4 2025
    In this episode, I welcome Joanna Tarnawska aka Polish Folk Witch to the podcast, who teaches online about Polish folk magic with a syncretic perspective. In this episode she speaks generously with me about her understanding of and experience with saints within the Polish folk tradition, and I respond with my own reflections on engaging with saints with a pagan and animistic lens.

  • Wolf at the door - interview w/ Scottish storyteller Dougie Mackay

    Wolf at the door - interview w/ Scottish storyteller Dougie Mackay
    Feb 20 2025
    In this episode I speak with Scottish storyteller Dougie Mackay about the troubled relationship between humankind and wolves in the British isles, and how we might revive the days when culture was shared with entertainment and joy at the centre. He shares a moving story from Ireland about a peculiar family a man meets while searching for lost cows, and offers a blessing for the revival of the wolf's vital place in our world.
