We talk about the health issues that have prevented Gary from producing the shows and what we expect for 2010. We also send our deepest sympathies to Tee Morris and put a call out for Philippa Ballantine's Appeal to support him.

 

La Belle Dame Sans Merci

by John Keats

John Keats (1 October 1795 – 23 February 1821) was an English poet who became one of the key figures of the Romantic movement. Along with Lord Byron and Percy Byshe Shelley, Keats was one of the second generation of Romantic poets. During his short life, his work was not well received by critics, but his posthumous influence on poets such as Alfred Tennyson and Wilfred Owen was significant. The poetry of Keats was characterised by elaborate word choice and sensual imagery, most notably in a series of odes which remain among the most popular poems in English literature. The letters of Keats, which include the development of his aesthetic theory of negative capability, are among the most celebrated by any English poet. [Wikipedia]

Step into a world of ancient wonder with the Celtic Myth Podshow, hosted by Gary & Ruth Colcombe. This podcast is a dedicated journey through the deep mythological roots of Celtic cultures, from the misty highlands of Scotland to the rugged coasts of Brittany. Each episode focuses on bringing a specific legend or figure to life, sharing the tales of heroes like Cú Chulainn, the complex pantheon of deities like the Dagda and Brigid, and the enchanting, often mysterious, realm of the fae. The storytelling prioritizes the original narrative spirit, weaving together sagas, folklore, and historical threads to recreate the rich tapestry of Celtic tradition. Listeners will hear these ancient stories presented with clarity and respect, exploring themes of magic, honor, betrayal, and destiny that defined a worldview. The Celtic Myth Podshow serves as an auditory archive and a guide, making these often intricate myths accessible and engaging for anyone drawn to timeless stories. It’s an invitation to discover the legends that shaped cultural identities, all shared through the intimate and personal medium of a podcast.
