It would be great to do an episode comparing the fairies/fae of the celtic nations! That would be really interesting, I’m looking forward to telling baby Sith all these sort of stories when she’s older-and won’t get nightmares!.

Hey I just found out there’s a spectral dog in Manx folklore and my next episode Ian on Manx legends so I’ll see about including it!!! Also yes I really wish more children were exposed to spoken storytelling - I used to love when my dad would tell me stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m always singing to her at the moment while I practice guitar or piano and she loves it so I’m sure she will love being read stories when she’s older too (she’s only 7.5 months at the moment so going to be a while) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theda Baratheon Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 Im going to be on an episode of The History of Vikings which I think is quite a popular history podcast! I’m very excited but also a bit nervous lol! I don’t have any Vikings expertise or knowledge really but I’ll be discussing Celtic otherworlds and hopefully people will find that interesting!!!

Recording it on Thursday but have no idea when it will be uploaded! Super excited - I had another person ask me to come on their show when they start it. Quite chuffed actually that some people seem to really enjoy what I’m doing I wish I could be more prolific ! Maybe when my MA is over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seli Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Oh nice! Don't think I've ever tried that one, so a better reason than most to check it out. One thing that seems to be nice about (parts of?) the podcast world is this willingness to cooperate and work with others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrddin Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Question: Are the CuSith, Cwn Annan, and the Wild Hunt all from the same common proto-European root? Or was it a Celtic tradition adopted by the Germanic people or vice versa? I've had a fascination of these of these hound tales all my life. I think it started with Hounds of Baskerville and then Arthurian related, and then deep into my reading of myths and legends. Cool stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if they’re related - I personally love folklore because it shows how similar people are - the cwn annwn are the hounds of the otherworld in welsh folklore/mythology and there’s some wild hunt type lore in “Celtic” ie welsh folklore too but I don’t actually know about how it originated or where they come from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theda Baratheon Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 Hi guys!! Sorry to spam you!! I have just uploaded the 6th episode of the podcast. So do have a listen to me chatting about manx fairies and naturally going off on a few tangents. It's become increasingly difficult to record genuinely high quality content on my house with my rickety chair and ancient computer LOL but although my podcast is quite ''off the cuff'' I hope you enjoy it!! http://celticmythspodcast.libsyn.com/mooinjer-veggey-manx-fairies If you do enjoy it please leave a review or rating on itunes or whatever podcast app you choose, cheers friends!!

Theda Baratheon Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 Hi everyone!! http://thehistoryofvikings.com/celtic-mythology-sian-esther-powell/ and here is the episode i recorded with The History of Vikings podcast - I was SO NERVOUS and thought I sounded so terrible and not knowledgeable at all but I also did have so much fun being asked about Celtic myth and really “geeking out” anyway - hope you enjoy!

Seli Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 That was a nice contribution to the vikings podcast. Fingers crossed for you masters, and it makes perfect sense that the podcast schedule is secondary to your academic (and work) programme. I did like the discussion on the Manx fairies, but the left-right balance of the file was a bit off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure why it did - i didn’t pick up anything on my headphones !! I was told on twitter as well so I shall try to make sure it doesn’t happen again!!! And thanks about the Viking podcast I was very nervous about that one!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wall Flower Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Really enjoyed the latest podcast. I had to go to a family funeral this week so a bit of Manx fairy magic was just what I needed. I am kind of imagining you dropping pasties over the Cornish countryside though. At least we know that the fairies won't take you (hopefully).
