What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I am a baby witch and eclectic Pagan and this podcast has been truly lifesaving. Your episodes on Spellwork were SO HELPFUL and I love the cozy vibes that each episode brings. The history is interesting, the knowledge is illuminating, and the vibes are *chef’s kiss*. Might I suggest an episode on the Celtic pantheon (or lack thereof in the literal definition of the word)? Or maybe the Kemetic/Ancient Egyptian pantheon? It would be really cool to hear you two talk about that. Thanks for all you do, and keep up the good work!

Brighid__burning__bright · Sep 2026

This is a super solid witchcraft podcast. The episodes are informative and helpful for those who are new to the path. Thanks for doing the podcast and sharing your knowledge!!

Shalis · Jul 2026

This episode was so healing and powerful hearing Irene share about her pagan representation- exactly the kind of wisdom you crave to hear from when you're feeling isolated or lonely during this insane timeline

Move bro I’m gay · Jun 2026

I have just listened to your podcast thank you for such an uplifting inspiring episode. This was my first listen and I’ll be listening from now on. I have been practicing for years and I just love how more and more people are showing their witchy side. It makes me feel that peace on earth can happen some day.
