The Wild Goddess
There is a gap in the hawthorn hedge, just wide enough for someone who knows how to look properly.
On the other side is Mossvale, an enchanted world where fairy folk move through the Storywood at dusk, where banshees keen across the Wild Moors and ancient oaks hold centuries of memory, where the wheel of the year is marked with fire and blossom and long tables pulled into the square before anyone has properly woken up.
The Wild Goddess Podcast is where that world lives.
Each episode is an invitation into the older, quieter, more enchanted version of things, through original fairylore stories, Celtic mythology, seasonal folklore, and the kind of storytelling that settles something in you you didn't know was unsettled. The fairy tales here aren't sanitised. The magic isn't neat. It arrives the way it always has - sideways, through the window you left open, smelling of woodsmoke and something you can't quite name.
This is a podcast for anyone who has ever felt the pull of an old forest. Who leaves offerings for things they can't see. Who marks Beltane and Samhain and the slow turning of the year. Who has always suspected the world is far more enchanted than it lets on.
Come find the gap in the hedge.
Welcome to Mossvale.

Ep 68 - Oban and the Rootkeeper of Elderwood | A Folkloric Tale About Walking Your Own Path
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In the old wood beyond Ashmere, where roots whisper and the air remembers, a spaniel named Oban discovers a friendship that will change his life.
When Oban begins to follow the quiet pull of Elderwood instead of the easy games of the meadow, the other dogs grow uneasy. Fear of the unknown leads them to trap Old Mossback, the ancient Rootkeeper of the wood, forcing Oban to decide whether he will shrink himself to fit in… or walk the path that calls him.
With the guidance of a few friends and the help of strange woodland beings, Oban must choose courage over comfort and truth over approval.
This is a folkloric inspired wisdom tale about intuition, belonging, fear, and the quiet strength it takes to remain rooted in who you truly are.
If you have ever felt different, too intuitive, too sensitive, too much then this story is for you.
