2024/03/10

This episode is near and dear to my heart because my guest, JV Hilliard, shares a couple of stories about his parents and what happened right before they died. But it's the story about his mother, who suffered from memory loss, that hit me. Considering my father's condition, this one was precious. (It's his Birthday btw!!) And then JV shares another story about his young cousin and her imaginary friend (but really, was he imaginary? I think not!!) I don't want to ruin anything but it appears that

This weeks episode is a doozy and begs the question-just what happens when we dream? Or what's really happening in that liminal space between dreaming and being awake?And dreaming doesn't seem to be limited to the human experience. I know we've all seen dogs running in their sleep and cats whimpering while seemingly dreaming. So all this begs the question...if dreaming isn't exclusive to humans, just what purpose does it serve? And don't get me started on that video of the octopus dreaming...it's

Hooray!And BEWARE dear listeners-in this episode you will hear: how Tracy's ancestry practically screams for her to be an uncanny author... how living on/near a graveyard is maybe not the best idea... how ancient ways and ancient gods still roam the lands of Eire... how footsteps on ceilings and rooftops can become humdrum... how the Era of the Hag is upon us...that great Goddess of Land and Water and pretty much everything?

Montgomery and "Anne of Green Gables," we talk about mysterious missing time and all about the soul. It's an episode that seemingly

This weeks episode comes with a TRIGGER warning dears, but also with an INSPIRATION warning! (Just in case your hearts are tender this week, I know mine is, so I urge my listeners to take care...). Dana is a beautiful example of what it looks like to survive and emerge triumphant on the other side of a childhood and marriage that were heartbreaking, to say the least. Talking with her was like talking with a dear friend, one who models compassion, love for the world and fierce determination all in
