Episode 184
In this episode of the podcast, host Mark Norman discusses some points relating to the folklore of rivers, with a particular focus on their perceived need for sacrifice and to 'claim a heart' each year.
This is followed by a discussion with writer Darren Simpson, the author of a new folk horror book for young adults, 'Thirst', which uses similar themes in its plot.
And finally, the show is closed with a new single from folk duo Lunatraktors, 'Yarrow', based on a Child Ballad.
