Confession: we've never really paid that much attention to Epiphany. After the wonder and festivities of Advent and Christmas, this liturgical season can often get overlooked. But that changes today! In this very average discussion, we get back to our roots: "definition time"! We share what we know about the three wise men (it's not much), learn about Epiphany traditions (why chalk on the door?), and discuss the significance of the lectionary readings that connect these first few weeks of the year. We hope this episode inspires you to hang a paper star and get out your chalk! Can't get enough of the Average Episcopalian?

This is my 100th episode and I wanted to make it a very special episode, so I am delighted to have Christina Ybarra of Palacio Portocarrero in Palma del Rio, Cordoba, Andalusia, Spain. Christina's story is a story of Andalusia taking in Roman, Moorish and Christian heritage, history, archaeology, architecture, culture and art. Palma del Rio is a town with the most stunning countryside surrounded by orange groves between Seville and Cordoba once called “the garden of Andalucia” by a visiting Spanish King. The Cordoba Region Most tourists go to the cities like Seville, Cordoba, Granada and Malaga but there are small villages and towns between these cities are real gems full of character including Carmona and Ecija, Alcalá de Guadaíra, Cazalla de la Sierra, Almodovar del Rio, Palma Del Rio and Montilla.The region is made for a road trip through fields filled with olive and orange grove and vineyards and many beautiful villages with old Moorish Alcazar forts and palaces in the Sierra Morena mountains.@prodeturprovinciasevilla ActivitiesPalacio Portcarrero Almodovar Del Rio – Old Moorish Castle to visit from Games of ThronesMontilla – Visit to local winery Alvear 1729 Wine tasting at Bodegas Colonias de Galeón Stargazing activity (Sierra Morena is a certified Starlight Destination) El Viso del Alcor - Olive oil tasting at Basilippo Cycling along the Sierra Morena Greenway, which is part of the upgraded Camino Vertical CordobaOnce one of main cities in the ancient Arab world with one of the most famous mosques to rival Mecca – The Mesquita Food CordobaDinner at Taberna La Viuda Lunch at La Cazuela de la Esparteria StaysCordoba - Hotel Mezquita Center Cazalla de la Sierra - Casa Rural Las Navezuelas Alcalá de Guadaíra - Hotel Oromana How to get there Fly with Aer Lingus from Cork and Dublin to Seville If you haven't already, I'd ask you to give me a follow on whichever platform you listen to your podcasts and you will be the first to get a new episode.

Our Bucket List episodes showcase the greatest travel experiences on the planet. Today, we're going to the deserts of Arabia to go stargazing with the Bedouin and learn their secrets of the stars. This episode is about learning to see the stars through the eyes of a people who have lived in the Arabian desert for thousands of years, and whose very existence, and survival,l was shaped by the night sky. Recorded on location in our immersive documentary style, this episode is a chance to hear the Bedouin's stories of the sky. For it is through those stories of love, tragedy and revenge that they passed down the secrets of ancient astronomy. When we look at the night's sky we see fiery distant suns and orbiting planets. When they look at it, they see poetry, and the whole gamut of human experience written into each far off sparkling light. Let's set the scene: We have travelled for two hours into the El Harameal desert, from the oasis town of Alula, in Saudi Arabia, a place that few outsiders have seen before. Blankets and pillows are laid out in the sand, night has fallen, and a young Saudi woman named Badrea begins to speak… FIND OUT MORE If you enjoyed this episode, check out our full documentary series which we recorded on location: the Elements of Alula. Our first three episodes: water, earth and air were out last year. It was an incredible trip filled with ancient heritage sites, insane adventures, Arabian horses and one hot air balloon crash that turned out to be the most we've laughed on any trip.  Find out more about the destination at ExperienceAlula.com.
