Ep 178: Oh Deer

Ep 178: Oh Deer

Deer, of all kinds, elk, caribou and moose too! We're hoofing our way through spiritual cervines in the latest episode with your favorite witches. So come sit a spell and we'll tell you all about it- except Amber forgot to mention the Red Deer on the Isle of Rum that eat meat, or that in some Native American legends Moose is the father of man because he is so balanced as an individual. But we got all the other interesting info, and now you have what we forgot. ;)

Ep 177: Cropping up Everywhere

Ep 177: Cropping up Everywhere

We feel like we're going in circles trying to think of a clever way to advertise this episode, but we're stuck in patterns, repeating cycles, or circles, going round and round... cropping up all over the ground.

Nah... not really, but this was the most clever way we could think to entice you to come sit a spell. We're talking Crop Circles today!

Ep 176: Short Hat, Long Jacket (Men in Black)

Ep 176: Short Hat, Long Jacket (Men in Black)

With dark sunglasses, that shine like sinister justice
And voices that are dark, like tinted glass
They are stealthy, thorough, and sharp as a tack
They are monitoring the citizenry and picking up slack
We're talking men in dark hats and long black jackets

We're going in style with the Men In Black, so come sit a spell, with your favorite witches.

Ep 175: They're Creepy AF

Ep 175: They're Creepy AF

Jeepers creepers, where'd you get them peepers... jeepers creepers, where'd you get them eyes?  Where'd they go? Your eyes that is... Jeepers creepers, some kids sure have some creepy peepers... they're all black and look lifeless, inhuman... So, yea, it's creepy- come sit a spell and we'll talk about it.  Again, forgive us for anything we may have missed in discussion... this is only our second time of trying to recreate the magic we made recording the first time around.  And, though we missed some of what we originally spoke on, we definitely had new ideas through having our second discussion.

Ep 174: Sounds Like Gimmick

Ep 174: Sounds Like Gimmick

Today we are talking mimics- ghostly mimics, monstrous mimics, mimics you can see occurring naturally. Ironically this is the first episode we have ever had to rerecord- in essence mimicing ourselves... Perhaps you have noticed we have been experiencing some audio issues, and last week when we recorded we made one tweak too many, rendering our OG episodes completely unusable. Which was a pain point to say the least, long ago we discovered the magic is in the 1st unscripted take... so we were disappointed, but still excited to bring you this week's topics. And to be honest it's not a perfect mimic, this time around Amber completely forgot to talk about the movie Mimic... but this time you can actually hear the episode! So, take the good with the bad, lol.  Without further intro, come sit a spell while we talk about mimics.

Rerelease- A Conspiracy of Witches

Rerelease- A Conspiracy of Witches

'tis the season to see posts on social media regarding the Salem Witch trials of America. So, as we are rereleasing episodes this wek, we felt this one to be timely. Did you know the account you think to be accurate and historical is more of an opinion piece when it comes to this?

Come sit a spell and we'll talk about it.

ReRelease- It's Not Just

ReRelease- It's Not Just

When you look around this world we live in you may say to yourself "it's not just." When you read the news and see your country's current events you may say to yourself "it's not just." You may see your neighbor treated as less than a human being and you may say "it's not just." But, it seems, a lot of people aren't understanding the injustice of these things, a lot of people don't seem to understand, it's not just other people whose lives will be affected by inhumane legislation... We're rereleasing this episode for 2 reasons- when recording on Sunday apparently our audio messed up so badly it was not salvageable, and because if we ARE going to put something out there again this definitely deserves another go round.

Mar 05, 202459:05
Ep 173: The Morrigan Always Gets Her Man

Ep 172: Charmed Unkindness Clattering Across the Sky

Ep 172: Charmed Unkindness Clattering Across the Sky

Four and twenty black birds, BAKED (yea, I said it wrong in the episode) into a pie, and that's only half the Corvid Corvus flying through the sky.  You know us, we rarely wing it, so this episode is feathered with natural animal traits and how they relate to the magic flying around these birds.  So, come sit a spell, we're gonna crow about it.

Feb 27, 202438:41
Ep 171: Pandora and Her "Box"

Ep 171: Pandora and Her "Box"

Ep 168: It Henges On This

Stone henges. Wood henges. Most of us are aware of Stonehenge in Britain. Some of us are aware that there are other stonehenges, and woodhenges, in other parts of Britain, Europe, the world.
