Episode 178 Area 51 to Zero Gravity

Join English barrister and Reuters correspondent turned writer, editor, award-winning tech journalist and sometime werewolf-hunter Charles Christian for one hour of folklore, the supernatural, folk horror and other weirdness. "Fun and high strangeness" is how one listener described the show. The show archive of 187 episodes runs from September/Mabon 2017 to October/Halloween 2021.

I adore this show. It’s charming and the hosts are both knowledgeable and pleasantly humorous. I enjoy the combination of folklore and history and practical magic. My only negative feedback is that they play this tinkling sort of seance parlour bell track throughout certain segments and the tone of the bells feels like a high pitched nagging alarm and it sets my teeth on edge. I have to skip ahead until it’s over. If they could just get rid of that bell track, this would be a perfect podcast.

Wonderful

A fun podcast talking about the most unexpected things many I never knew before!!

A must hear
