No matter who you are, you will struggle at times in your practice. We here at the Folk Podcast are no different, so today we share with you things we have personally struggled with following the path of old.

Episode 56: Oaths and Oath Rings

In this episode we discuss the importance of oaths, and also discuss the very popularized oath rings, and what they mean to the faith today.

After a year of podcasting we are finally talking about Celtic Paganism! We brought on a member of our community, Kevin, to discuss his experience and to help answer our questions on the ways of the Celts.

Episode 54: The Gatherings and Fellowship

Ian, Baker, and myself discuss our recent experiences at the Fall Gathering 2021 in Pennsylvania. We also discuss gatherings, past, present, and future in this light hearted episode full of laughs and good stories. 

Episode 53: Preparing for Winter with Skadi

Today we bring back on Amanda (@skadi_winters) to discuss her experiences with the goddess Skadi. We also discuss how different we as people prepare for winter differently than our not so distant ancestors. Somehow this episode turned into quiet the laugh, so we hope you enjoy!

Episode 52: Story telling, and the importance of books in Norse Paganism

We bring back on Blade (aka Babushka) to discuss his recently published book. Then the team talk about their favorite books that have helped them along their path.

Episode 50: Reflecting on one year of Podcasting

It is officially our 1 year anniversary and our 50th episode. This is a huge achievement for any podcast, so for this episode we are giving ourselves some time of reflection. Both looking at how far we've all come personally in our practices, but also reflecting on previous memorable episodes.

Episode 49: What is the World Tree?

Ian, myself, and Shird discuss the world tree Yggdrasil by pulling in the theories and thoughts of those within the Discord community. This episode is less about the mythology, and more about the modern interpretations of what the world tree means to us today. Grab a cup of coffee, and maybe a tin-foil hat for this wild, yet sciencey episode. 

Episode 48: Finding your Fylgia

We bring on Darius (@ulfur_svikinn) to discuss his experience with Fylgia coming from a Norse Perspective as well as a Native American point of view. We will discuss what the difference between Fylgia and other spirits animals is, how to find yours, and what you can do with your Fylgia.
