    These two make my heart happy. I love listening to their discourse; it reminds me of my friends chattering about their passions! And the lore they share touches on things I've never heard of. Highly, highly recommend!

  • Eye of Newt and Toe of Dog

    I think you just tried to curse me. Ha! Not gonna work, my children betray me every chance they get. If I’ve retained anything I’ve lamented from Rowan & Pine it’s that a curse will come back on the curser if it’s not deserved (if you believe in such things). Informative and well-researched show, one of my faves.
