Beyond the Seas
by Kieran Danaan
Grand tidings and welcome to Beyond the Seas! Here, on this podcast, we explore all the fascinating realms of mythology and folklore, along with the modern-day practice of The Old Ways--to understand how working with the past and present leads us to a more fulfilling future. Stories are so vastly important to me--listen weekly for a new original, short-form tale that introduces each topic. Recipes, blends, practices, and ceremonies meet with the surviving tales from around the world and its cultures to create both an educational and relaxing, practical experience. As always, grab your favorite bottle of red and settle in for a new tale--as I take you... Beyond the Seas.
