VYS0044 | For Fear of Little Men - Vayse to Face with Jo Hickey-Hall
VYS0044 | For Fear of Little Men - Vayse to Face with Jo Hickey-Hall - Show notes They've talked of night-time scaries, they've talked of shadow men, but they daren't talk of fairies, for fear of meeting them... Bravely, valiantly, courageously, boldly confronting a topic that they have avoided delving into for the past two years, Hine and Buckley take a trip into the terrifying world of fairies with their guide, researcher podcaster and author, Jo Hickey-Hall, creator and host of the hugely successful Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast. Jo talks beautifully on the subject and the conversation flits magically around the topic on gossamer wings and a cloud of enchanted dust: what exactly are fairies? Where did the common "Tinkerbell" trope come from? Do fairy sightings herald a transitional period in the life of the observer? Are some humans part fae? Can anyone see fairies? Just how frightened should we be of the fae?... and what do Pukwudgies, puppets, pork-pie hats and the Monster Munch monsters have in common? (Recorded 11 November 2024) Thanks to Jo for her time and patience and thanks, as always, to Keith for the show notes - give the man a follow: @peakflow.bsky.social Jo Hickey-Hall Online Scarlett of the Fae - Jo’s website The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast episodes The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast YouTube channel The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast on Patreon The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast on Buy Me a Coffee The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast on Facebook Jo on Instagram Jo’s email: scarlettofthefae@gmail.com Hine’s Intro Fairy ring - Wikipedia Preston, Lancashire - Wikipedia Gratitude, Thanks, and Fairy Etiquette - Writing in Margins How to Spot a Fairy: Clothes - British Fairies Face to Vayse with Jo Hickey-Hall Magical Folk: British and Irish Fairies - 500 AD to the Present, by Simon Young and Ceri Houlbrook - Goodreads Anima Mundi (Soul of the World) - Wikipedia Fairy - Wikipedia The superstitions and mysteries around Ireland's 'fairy forts' - RTE The power of smells and bells - Catholic.com What is Reiki? - Reiki.com Cottingley Fairies - Wikipedia Tinker Bell (Disney character) - Wikipedia Fairies weren’t always cute - The Conversation Flower Fairies website Fairies and the Folklore Society: 1878-1945 - Folklore Thursday Brian Froud - Wikipedia Faeries (book) - Wikipedia Faeries, by Brian Froud - Goodreads Genius loci - Wikipedia Dolmen - Wikipedia Ronald Hutton - Wikipedia The Witch: A History of Fear, from Ancient Times to the Present, by Ronald Hutton - Goodreads What Is a Hedge Witch?
