A quick audio note to let ya'll know I'm still alive, as well as a tremendous thanks to Darkly Fey for taking on one of the show's listener questions on her own show "The Dark Side of Fey".  A new episode for this show will be out towards the end of July, once I finish up my last intro class on my doctorate program.

hey ya'll.  I apologize for not having a podcast out over the last few weeks.  Blame it on my poor time management and assesment skills.  I'm a bit overloaded with the assignment schedule for my first class in my Doctoral program.  The schedule called for eight papers and two tests over thrity days.  So, here I am with nine days left in class, three papers and one exam left to finish.  Couple that with a busy work schedule, and my time is really crunched right now.  The next two classes (also both thirty days in length) promise to have just as hectic a schedule.  After that, my classes become ninety days in length, and things should return back to normal.  So my apologies for not having anything out -- and I will most likely have very little time to get anything out during the next two months.  Sorry to say, but my class work comes first...

In the meantime, please remember that there are a lot of other great podcasts out there that continue to put out excellent shows:  The Secrets in Plain Sight!, The Wigglian Way, The Broom Closet, A Pagan Heart in Maine, Pagan Living, Geek Witch, The Modern Musings of a Cultured Barbarian, Mid-Michigan Pagan Podcast, and several others.

Hope ya'll will still be here when I get back!

Hugs,

For this week's topic, I make way for a ton of listener responses to the question of what is the "dark" side of Paganism, along with my own personal take on the subject.  There's a bit of a "technical difficulty" in the show -- but in true spirit, we "wiggle" on through it.  Music is "The Killing Moon" from Wendy Rule.  Email:  elfster@gmail.com  YahooIM:  TommyElf22
