Let me tell you a joke... Knock, Knock. Who's there? Auntie. Auntie Who? Auntie Bunnie. Auntie Bunnie? What? Oh no. Funny story. Mojo was on his computer...probably practicing his guitar maybe...writing his thesis in Theban. He was doing something intense in any case. Sparrow was on the way home from the Mall. It was imperative that she got home and utilised the cosmetic face mask that she just bought. Music was playing on the radio and Hubby was telling some story. Sparrow's phone rings, "Squirt, we've got a situation"...well something like that. It was filled with a few more expletives but you get the gist. In any case, Auntie Bunnie (AKA Auntie Louise) had knocked on the door of The Wigglian Way studio for the appointment she had to record a segment for The Wigglian Way. Neither Sparrow nor Mojo had actually read their email correctly and thought that the appointment was for NEXT week. Sparrow rushed over to the studio on the mountain. In the meantime Mojo had set up the equipment and Auntie had started tea. Lovely tea. The recording of Episode 94 was about to be begin (on VERY short notice and with not a lot of planning) and this was what happened... Auntie Bunnie shares a little bit about one of her favourite poets, Ted Hughes. His poetry has deep paganesque themes and can be adapted to pagan rites. You too will be inspired to add poetry to your rituals and perhaps, like Sparrow, to write a personal Charge of the Goddess. The feature album, as promised last episode is one by S.J. Tucker. We showcase Sirens, S.J's 2006 release by sharing Lady Vagabond, Girl in the Garden, and Valkyrie Daughter with you. By special request from Aunie Bunnie you will hear Song of Awen (from Herne's Apprentice 2002)by Damh the Bard. From our dear friend, Arthur Hinds, we hear Circle of Love from Poetry of Wonder. See what we did there? Thank you for listening and thank you for downloading the show. Enjoy! A special thank you to our guest, Auntie Bunnie. Comments[1]

Hey this is Sparrow! Welcome to The Wigglian Way! Mojo is away in Neverneverland cavorting with picaroons and pixie type beings. I am holding the tether between this World and That so that Mojo, Sarah, our Covenmates, Tradmates, and friends will make it back safely. That's one Hel of a responsibility. While I am on permanent vacation Mojo hasn't been able to take a vacation yet this year but we will be at PPSM2 . If you are out and about that way the weekend we are there, we want to see YOU. I also asked Kevin Smith (the Director) an important question. I hope he answers me. This episode we discuss how faith relates to chronic illness and Mojo finishes his EPIC Male archetype discussion with The King. Music makes our lives happy. We've slowed it down a bit this time with Gaia Consort's album Gaia Circles for our Feature Album. We play the title track Gaia Circles, The Old Ones, and finish up the show with The Rede. We also share with you our good friend Castalia's new release...Drum, Dance, Sing and our new friend Heather Dale's...The King Sword. Thanks for hanging with us. Thanks for walking The Wigglian Way. Thank you so much for listening to the show and voting for us. ...Breaking News... People's Choice Podcast award nomination time is coming up soon. September 15 nominate your favourite pagan podcasts. Let's get a whole whack of Pagan Podcasts nominated. The more there are the better chance we have at one of us winning an award. See what I'm saying? LOVE! Comments[2]

Wowzers! Another show so soon?! I hear ya folks, it's been a while since we have been able to put out a show with such a small break in between. How does it feel, it feels GOOD, baby! Thank you so much for downloading the show, we're glad that you are here, thanks for listening. On tonight's show, we introduce our covenmate, Linda, to the Wigglian Nation! Linda will be joining us as a regular contributor and we spend an evening getting to know her and we spend some time talking about handfasting in general and her recent handfasting in particular, we hope that you enjoy the conversation. As mentioned during the last show, we have had a request to crunchify, to moltenize this show's musical selections. No feature album tonight, as we have decided to unleash the metal beast with five songs by five artists, all of which have been or are going to be future feature albums. Songs in order of play: Heart Girt With a Serpent - Dangerous Beauty - Pandemonaeon Haunting Visions - Draw Down the Moon - Icarus Witch Into the Aftermath - Heavenly Ecstasy - Pagan's Mind Hold the Heathen Hammer High - By the Light of the Northern Star - Tyr Erotic Angel - The Beast With Two Backs - Inkubus Sukkubus
Podkin Love! Podcasts mentioned on tonight's show, give them a listen! Shhh! There's Pagans in Texas!!
Thank you again for downloading the show, all the emails and votes at Podcast Alley. PPSM2 is only six weeks away, we hope to meet some of you in Salem, because meeting YOU is what it's all about!
