Find out about this podcast about cool Cornish women and their love affair with Cornwall.

Village wise women Cassandra and Laetitia.  Cassandra was Britain's first ever tax-paying witch! They talk about magic spells, historic witchhunts and their black cat, a keen hunter of  ingredients for their cabinet of curiosities.

Find out more about the history of Cornwall's pagan festivals, their favourite potent Cornish locations and their involvement in the All Hallow's "Dark Gathering" at Boscastle.

As a single woman, research suggests that writer Jane Pugh should be  miserable and expect a curtailed lifespan. But the richness of her  creative life in Cornwall, and the enjoyment she shares with friends and  family makes her happier than many married people. She talks about sea  swimming in winter, how to write convincingly, and why she quit her job  in TV drama. And she reads from her acclaimed short story "Life Girl"  which is by turns laugh out loud funny, and piercingly poignant.

Emily Stevenson wore a dress made of crisp packets  to her graduation ceremony to highlight beach litter. It's her mission  to keep Cornwall's beaches plastic free. David Attenborough is a fan.  Emily talks about the wellbeing benefits of being in the open air and  how beach cleaning helps her put the trauma of childhood bullying behind  her.
