Happy Halloween! Rob and Eamonn of Monster Fuzz podcast stop by and discuss Jack-O-Lantern history and folklore. We hear the tale of Stingy Jack, one of two jack-o-lantern origin stories, and then we discuss Cabbage Stump Night (a tradition local to wexford, Ireland) and, amazingly, find its Pennsylvania Dutch equivalent. Finally, Brother Richard shares his poem All Hallows Eve. (part two of our jack-o-lantern talk will be on Monster Fuzz podcast).If you would like to help us continue to make Strange Familiars, get bonus content, t-shirts, stickers, and more rewards, you can become a patron: http://www.patreon.com/StrangeFamiliarsIf you would prefer a one-time payment to help us out, here is a PayPal.me link - you can change the number 25 in the URL to any amount: https://www.paypal.me/timothyrenner/25Our Strange Familiars / Lost Grave etsy shop has art, books, patches, t-shirts, and more ... including original art done for Strange Familiars: https://www.etsy.com/shop/lostgraveStrange Familiars t-shirts and other designs are available here: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/strange-familiars?ref_id=14000Episode 354 notes and links:Monster Fuzz: https://monsterfuzzpodcast.comMonster Fuzz on Instagram: @monsterfuzzpodcastStrange Familiars ‘Awoken Tree’ shirts, now available in glow-in-the-dark! https://www.etsy.com/listing/1300641744/strange-familiars-podcast-glow-in-theRiverbend Comics: https://www.riverbendcomics.comRiverbend Comics Instagram: @riverbendcomicsKarmic Garden: https://www.etsy.com/shop/KarmicGardenTimothy’s books: https://www.amazon.com/Timothy-Renner/e/B072X44SD5Strange Familiars ‘Awoken Tree’ t-shirts are available in our Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/listing/739690857/strange-familiars-podcast-awoken-treeAlison: https://www.etsy.com/shop/odpeacockChad’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNB7MSJ2F1SRBPcQsEFLnvg (make sure to subscribe to Chad’s channel, Ruck Rabbit Outdoors.)Chad’s etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/RuckRabbitOutdoorsTo help with the Capuchin Day Center’s work with the homeless you can donate here: https://www.capuchindaycentre.ieand here: https://www.cskdetroit.orgContact us via email at: strangefamiliarspodcast@gmail.comhttp://www.facebook.com/strangefamiliarsJoin the Strange Familiars Gathering group on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/strangefamiliars/instagram: @strangefamiliarshttp://www.strangefamiliars.comIntro and background music by Stone Breath.
