Episode 14: The Scottish Witch Trials /feat. Toni Gender Gab

Spooky season is upon us so it is time to turn our attention to witches, witchcraft, and the witch trials in Scotland. I am joined by fellow PhD and pagan Toni. Join us on this journey as we explore the witch trials in Scotland, take a closer look into the role the Church and the Patriarchy within the witch crazes, and shine light on who exactly witches were and their role in society.  Enjoy! xx Julia
