Witchin' and Bitchin'
Witchin’ and Bitchin’ is a cozy, irreverent folk magic podcast where Juan and River dive into nature lore, seasonal wisdom, ancestral traditions, and everyday enchantment. Blending down-to-earth witchcraft with humor, storytelling, and a healthy dose of sass, each episode explores the magic woven through ordinary life — and the moments that make us want to cackle, cast, or complain.
This podcast is created and hosted by Juan of Descendants of the Moon and River DragonStar of Moonlight and StarShadows, two natural witches with over 60 years of combined experience in folklore and magick. Now for the required legal stuff: all information is for "entertainment purposes only."

In the very first episode of Witchin’ and Bitchin’, hosts Juan and River dive into the enchanting world of the besom — the witch’s broom — exploring its rich folklore, magical uses, and place in old folk traditions. Together they discuss how brooms became protective tools, liminal gateways, cleansing companions, and enduring symbols of witchcraft. You’ll also learn simple ways to charm and use a broom in your modern practice, hear a few witchy stories, and enjoy plenty of humor and bitchin’ along the way.
Whether you're a beginner witch, a seasoned practitioner, or just broom-curious, this episode sets the tone for a season filled with nature magic, folklore, laughter, and everyday enchantment.
