Feral Folktales is where I step aside from the main show and tell a straight folktale—simple, spoken, and exactly as it’s meant to be heard. These bonus episodes are just a little something extra between the full installments of The Feral Folklorist, which is where you’ll find the deeper dives into history, folklore, magic, hauntings, and the stranger corners of human belief.

This time, I’m sharing “The Old Woman Who Lived in a Vinegar Bottle,” an old English tale about restlessness, wish-making, and the trouble that follows when nothing ever feels like enough.

A new folktale often appears between the regular podcast releases—just a short story to keep the world of folklore moving.
