Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Magic of Winter: A Conversation with Dr Rebecca Beattie
Q: What would you want someone listening to take away from The Season of Frost and Fire into their own winter?
Beattie offers two takeaways: make quiet time to connect with what one needs internally, and treat oneself kindly by accepting who one is rather than trying to conform to expectations.
The Magic of Winter: A Conversation with Dr Rebecca Beattie
Q: What do you think we are missing by trying to escape winter, by trying not to really look at it and see it?
Beattie says that avoiding winter disconnects people from natural rhythms and from nature itself. She links that separation to treating nature as something to dominate and control, rather than recognizing people as part of the natural world.
Florence & The Machine’s Everybody Scream: The Witchcraft of Womanhood
Q: What would it mean for you to become your false eyes?
It's about identifying spaces where one can express their true self, free from societal constraints.
Faeries: The Musical (ft. RPG Major)
Q: Can you explain why stories about faeries seem to be more enduring in places like Ireland and Iceland?
This enduring belief may be tied to the rural nature of these areas, where oral traditions survive more robustly, and people feel a deeper connection to the land.
Circe: Weaving Her Own Fate
Q: Do you have a preference between Greek and Roman takes on Circe?
The host invites listeners to share whether they find Greek or Roman interpretations more interesting.
