An All Souls Podcast
Hi, Clovers!
It’s not clear why this didn’t post as scheduled, but better late than never.
In this episode, we’re tackling Chapters 9 and 10 of The Black Bird Oracle, which combines the witch version of a courtroom procedural with ancient mythology. We’re talking about allegory, long-term relationships, continuity, structure, and more — including whether we’re setting up for another trilogy — and we’re delighted to have you with us.
See you next time!

Hello, Clovers:
It’s time to talk about Chapters 7 and 8 of The Black Bird Oracle. Once again, the gods of the pods were unkind — we had a mid-recording calamity that required two separate sessions, much to our dismay. The pod hiccups persist, but SO DO WE.
We accept your love and good wishes for a nonsense-free recording session for Chapters 9 and 10. If your oracle cards say otherwise, well, I don’t think we want to know.
Talk soon,
xoxox

Oh, Clovers.
Have you ever had a month (ish) where nothing went your way? Where everything went a bit to a hell and sideways and pear-shaped and you just couldn’t get your feet under you? That was, in effect, the last five (ish) weeks at C&C. Between work emergencies, sickness, power outages, internet crises, and the like, it took us eons to record this episode properly and get it to you.
But, finally, here it is.
In this episode, we’re unpacking generational trauma and Diana behaving like a wrecking ball with the side of the family that she heretofore did not know existed. There are specters and a frankly awesome barn and more revelations about all the things Stephen apparently didn’t want Diana to know.
Download the episode here.
We’ll be back on our regular cadence from here on out — thanks for your grace and patience, as always.

Clovers,
We’re getting our witchlegs back under us as Diana travels (alone! Gloriously alone!) to Ravenswood, where there are buckets of other witches and a lot of VERY COMPLICATED FEELINGS. You guys, this thing where we haven’t read the book all the way through means we’re not very good at biding our time and being reasonable.
Wait. Have we ever been good at that? Turns out that “P” stands for “patriarchy” and also “Proctor” and we are unhappy about it.
Hope you enjoy it.
xoxo

You guys.
It’s been two years, but with the publication of The Black Bird Oracle, we could not resist coming back. In this episode, we’re catching up and finding our stride again as we cover Chapters 1-2 of Deborah Harkness’s TBBO.
We missed this, and we missed you. Looking forward to this next step into the universe of All Souls!
xoxo
