Send us a textIrish water fairies are not like Tinkerbell; they are monsters.  This episode I share some of my favorites:Muirdris, the “Sea Bramble” or “Sea Briar” - A huge, mysterious, undefined horror that inflates and deflates, expands and contracts like a bellows. It has features of a thorn-bush, with branches that stings, and its appearance alone is deadly. Alp-Luachra - In Celtic mythology, a Joint-eateror Just-halver the Alp-luachra is a type of fairy who sits invisibly and consumes half of their victim's food. Chailleach- The word "Cailleach" literally means "old woman, hag" and comes from the Old Irish word caillech, which means "veiled one".  The serpent of Loch Chraili - Similarto the Loch Ness monster  The white trout, the legend of Cong - A woman turned fish pining for her dead fiance  An Dobharchú  - Translated means ‘water hound', or ‘hound of deep'. Thought to be a cross between a giant otter and a hound, Dobhar Chu is about seven-foot-long, or about the size of a crocodile. In fact, it is also known as the Irish crocodile.Support the showIrish Mythology - Mythical Cycle - Book of Invasions

And now for something rather different... we're stepping out of the Changeling canon and into the wonderful world of late 90s/early 00s homebrew with Changeling: the Celtic Cycle. Written by three World of Darkness authors, CtCC radically re-imagines the world of Changeling: no Glamour and Banality, no Dreamers to cultivate, no Dreaming separate from the Umbra. Instead, the fae in this version of the game are directly inspired by Celtic mythology and epic. The supplement was released in three installments as part of a zine, in all its early-days-of-desktop-publishing glory, and is as much an interesting historical artifact for that context as for its contents. But the authors also went on to be involved in Book of Lost of Houses, Dark Ages: Fae, and Changeling: the Lost, with all of which we see a few subtle connections... The text is findable online, but we'll also have it available in our Discord (link below!).

在歐洲版圖上堪稱「邊緣人」的愛爾蘭,過去幾個世紀的歷史可謂多災多難,還因饑荒導致人口銳減;然而流傳千年的凱爾特文化不只沒有消失,反而隨著移民被帶到了世界其他角落!尤其在愛爾蘭裔眾多的美國與加拿大,許多人的姓氏上的留著凱爾特血統的印記;號稱北美愛爾蘭人首都的城市波士頓,甚至直接以凱爾特人為自己的籃球隊命名!想了解歐洲傳統文化、了解英語世界,愛爾蘭這個國家不得不提。 因此這集節目裡,我們以坊間熟悉的愛爾蘭文化元素開展,嘗試探尋它們的根源;接著,我們將分析誰是凱爾特人、他們在歐洲的勢力消長,以及他們的文化如何繼續影響今日的世界;最後,我們則會聊到愛爾蘭被迫英國化,以及脫離英國的過程,還有過去數十年間如何從西歐最窮國家,搖身一變到今天人均名目GDP位居世界第二,獲得了「凱爾特老虎」(The Celtic Tiger)的稱號。 同樣位於不列顛群島,我們對愛爾蘭的認識遠遠不如隔壁的英國。跟著我們一起發現愛爾蘭,以及它的文化如何影響全世界吧! 插入音樂: Cuban Sandwich by Doug Maxwell/Media Right Productions.

For our 25th episode Scott Fischbuch joins us for a much needed white pill. We discuss the traditional Irish hymn Be Thou My Vision (Rop tú mo baile in Irish). Originating in the 6th Century AD and written in Old Irish, the hymn was not translated into English until 1905 and was not set to music until 1919. The poem was written by the Ollamh Érenn (Chief Poet of Ireland) Eochaid mac Colla (AKA Saint Dallán Forgaill) who lived between 560 AD and 640 AD and used as a lorica by the early Irish. The music is set to an Irish folk tune called Slane. Scott F. leads us in a faith-promoting discussion on Christianity and having hope in a fallen world. Éirinn go Brách!

For years, once-widespread barley varieties such as Hunter, Goldthorpe and Old Irish lay dormant, yet preserved, in the Department of Agriculture's Seed Bank outside Dublin. These grains held the flavours and stories of a different time where different approaches to farming, brewing and distilling reigned.  If Waterford Distillery was to continue its quest of pursuing whisky flavour and "the old ways" the team knew that what they sought lay in cold storage in the laboratories of the Seed Bank.  In this episode we'll share how Waterford Distillery and its growing partners turned 50 grams of heritage barley into 50 barrels of whisky through a 5 year-long passion-fueled process full of challenges and new learnings.

In my quest to dig into Irish whiskey history, this may be one of my favorite episodes yet. We start off with one of the great legends of Ireland - a legend tied to the area I was traveling through, the Boyne River Valley. I get to visit Slane Distillery, taste their whiskey and head over to Boann to learn the experimental side of that distillery and more legends. Meanwhile, I dig deep into the 17th century, when Irish uisce beatha was gaining a great reputation in London, until a Dutch upstart stole the show. All this and a beheading and rebellion - this week on Whiskey Lore.

Uisce beatha (Irish pronunciation: [ˈɪʃcə ˈbʲahə]), literally "water of life", is the name for whiskey in Irish. It is derived from the Old Irish uisce ("water") and bethu ("life"). [Credit: Wikipedia]Craic (pronounced "crack") is an Irish word with no direct translation in English. It is generally used to describe fun, banter, a good time, etc.  [Credit: Urban Dictionary] This week we go all Irish for St Partick's Day and sample 6 Irish whiskeys you could find at your local pub. We're also joined by Nathan's brother, Aaron, a self-described whiskey novice, to help us drink up all this "Water of Life". We also discuss whether someone new to the whiskey world is better off starting with an Irish or a Canadian whiskey.In the land of Irish whiskeys Jameson is the king by volume but we found some hidden gems, and some definite no's. Give us a listen to find what other whiskeys we think are a good buy and which one we all agree to stay away from. Slainte!

This week we're exploring some South African horror and delving into The Tokoloshe. In case you didn't pick up on the accent, one of us is in fact a Saffer. Buckle in heathens, this one is a ride. We explore some of the stories around this Zulu mythological creature and some of the more… uh… interesting stories involving tokoloshes.

Reimagined as a resurrected pedophile principal who died in a fire, it's essentially a South African version of Freddy Krueger. Don't Be Afraid of the Dark: While exploring the 19th century manor, Sally accidentally stumbles across a hidden basement, where the evil little creatures lie in wait. They lure Sally to her doom with promises of being friends, when in reality, they want to rip her apart. They're ancient demons that initially fed on children's teeth, until they wanted something more substantial. They are "tooth fairies" you hope you never see. Carved: The Slit-Mouthed Woman. Japanese folklore is full of malevolent spirts, but few are as harrowing as Kuchisake-onna, the "slit-mouthed woman." Kuchisake-onna joined Sadako, Kayako, and other onryo (vengeful ghosts) on movie screens in 2007's Carved: The Slit-Mouthed Woman. Here, she's the spirit of an abusive mother who possesses other women in order to continue preying on children after death.

‘It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons' Johann Friedrich Von SchullerThe concept of fatherhood is divine and this can be seen clearly from Scriptures. Our society is defined by this concept.The etymology of the word father gives some insights below, Father (n.)Old English fæder "he who begets a child, nearest male ancestor;" also "any lineal male ancestor; the Supreme Being," and by late Old English, "one who exercises parental care over another," from Proto-Germanic *fader (source also of Old Saxon fadar, Old Frisian feder, Dutch vader, Old Norse faðir, Old High German fatar, German vater; in Gothic usually expressed by atta), from PIE *pəter- "father" (source also of Sanskrit pitar-, Greek pater, Latin pater, Old Persian pita, Old Irish athir "father"), presumably from baby-speak sound "pa." The ending formerly was regarded as an agent-noun affixhttps://www.etymonline.com/word/fatherThe above reinforces the role and place of a father in the society. One which shows leadership, provision, protection and strength.In this episode of the Word café Podcast, I seize the opportunity to celebrate fatherhood, a role that undeniably is in high demand today in our ever changing society.Fathers are the gate keepers, the watchers, those who the children look up to and somewhat take after, mirroring their actions. It is a responsibility that comes with so much power that is ‘godlike', because its occupation opens you up to the assignment which God conferred on MankindSupport the show
