This time, host Katy Cowan is joined by Emily Penny – brand strategist, writer and founder of Be Colourful.

It's warm, funny and full of surprises... the perfect companion to her full conversation with Katy, released earlier this week.

This week's featured story comes from the So Many Fairies collection. It's called "The Lantern Prince." The Prince is not like his parents. In fact, he is not like any royal. In addition to being strong, obedient, and confident — common royal traits — he is also very kind and loving. But what makes the Prince unusual is that he is kind and loving to everyone, royal and servant alike. The King and Queen hope that he will grow out of it, but alas, as he grows he only gets more loving and kind. One day he spies a poor beggar woman in the streets, and his life is never the same again. If you enjoyed that story, there are hundreds and hundreds more where that came from.

“To many, Fantasy, this sub-creative art which plays strange tricks with the world and all that is in it, combining nouns and redistributing adjectives, has seemed suspect, if not illegitimate. To some it has seemed at least a childish folly” writes J.R.R. Tolkien in his classic essay, “On Fairy-Stories.” He goes on to insist: “Fantasy is a natural human activity. It certainly does not destroy or even insult Reason; and it does not either blunt the appetite for, nor obscure the perception of, scientific verity. On the contrary. The keener and the clearer is the reason, the better fantasy will it make.” In short, Tolkien is saying that the fantastical—stories of elves and dragons and magical staffs—are not escape hatches from this world but rather invitations to delve deeper into the truth of our own reality. Today's guest tests that hypothesis—and, in my humblest of opinions, proves just how right Tolkien was. Rose John Sheffler is a Catholic writer who has been telling stories her whole life. She's written a delightful volume of Biblically inspired fairy tales called “Past Watchful Dragons: Biblical Stories Retold.” Her book invites us into the world of Erith where we meet characters we know from the Bible but…different. Still—and, as you'll hear—the truth of these stories, the values and the hopes that they point to, are familiar and likely resonate with what lies deep in your own heart. If you want to learn more about Rose's work or get a copy of her book, visit rosejohnsheffler.substack.com.

We love an unplanned theme! This week on Fairy Tale Fix, we're keeping busy with Abbie reading an Italian folk tale called The Man Who Only Came Out At Night, a story that's barely about that man at all. Kelsey then reads a Scottish fairy tale entitled A Box of Fairies, where a smitten young lad is given very specific instructions, and do you think he follows them?

What did we do differently at times in our lives when we were less cluttered? What's good advice for staying organized and decluttered while traveling? Is it still a “capsule wardrobe” if you just happen to wear only a small number of items?

From Host BarbaraI'm very happy to introduce Darragh Mason to you: he's an award-winning photographer, author and podcaster with a deep interest in folklore and otherworldly beings. I first found him by way of his podcast The Spirit Box, where he had some really interesting guests. The first episode I listened to was Episode 28: Jerry Marzinsky, Schizophrenia and Parasitic Entities, and I found it so fascinating that I started tuning in regularly. Last year, his first book was published: Song of the Dark Man: Father of Witches, Lord of the Crossroads, and of course, I snatched it right up. Being as I have an affinity with another being who is known for frequenting crossroads, Hecate, I expected to really like the book. What I wasn't prepared for was the poetic beauty of the prose and the experiences described by modern Witches that were congruent with my own. I hope you enjoy listening in on our little visit, and after you listen, you should check out Darragh's photo essays on his website, especially the one titled City of Djinn.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/paranormal-uk-radio-network--4541473/support.

Disney once prided itself on being the "happiest place on Earth," but lately it's been trying to erase a few of its own storylines — the race-swapped princesses, the same-sex kisses, the "magical beings" that replaced the Seven Dwarfs.

As magical new Irish music podcasts emerge, as dark forces swirl around the world, and as much of the northern hemisphere enters into shorter, colder days, the Irish Music Stories re-investigates lore and mystery surrounding Irish fairies.  With care and caution—and with young co-producer Nigel—fiddle players Tara Connaghan and Martin Hayes, singer Emily Smith, and storyteller Máirtín de Cógáin help explore songs and stories about the Sí. ________________________________ Thank you to everybody for listening.

Do you believe in goblins and fairies? Do you believe in their the magic? Well, the Fairy Minister Reverend Robert Kirk did. In 1691, he published The Secret Commonwealth of Elves and Fairies, a book that described in detail their habits, appearance, and secrets. The following year, Reverend Kirk was found dead on Doon Hill, the alleged entrance to the realm of the fairies. Coincidence? You decide. Sources: Aberfoyle - Here. Now.
