Rowan & Pine: A Feminist Folklore & Mythology Podcast

PLEASE LIKE/RATE/SUSBCRIBE or your wife might turn tail and run!


Niamh is deep in Sea-tember right now with a full length Mermaids episode. We go right back to the beginning with Atorgatis, then take a swim across continents with folk tales about Suvannamaccha, Rusalki, the Renvyle Merrow (Murrough) in Ireland, and how a school of scary ladies held up construction in Zimbabwe. Did you know the bacckgound to the Starbucks "siren"?

Pine Cones: Sailor Superstitions | Rowan & Pine Shorts

We are diving into Sea-tember with a rundown of old Sailor Superstitions. This fascinating custom still somewhat survives in the industry, but hopefully no Scottish people are being dunked?

Pine Cones: Ghost Ships | Rowan & Pine Shorts

Every winter, the desolate shores of Block Island are shrouded in an unnatural gloom, where the spectral glow of a doomed vessel, the Palatine, haunts the eyes of those brave enough to look upon it.....

For Sea-tember and our TENTH Pine Cones, we bring you on a spooky voyage into the world of ghost ships, bot phantasmal and abandoned.
