The Three Ravens Podcast

What hidden histories lie buried within the clay walls of old English cottages? 🏺🌾

Welcome to Magic and Medicines, a bonus series of The Three Ravens Podcast all about superstitious spells, crazy charms, and some downright revolting remedies!

In this inaugural episode, host Eleanor Conlon is joined by her partner-in-crime Martin Vaux to excavate the bizarre history of "witch bottles" and explore how everyday people used pins, urine, and glass to defend themselves against malicious spirits…

About Three Ravens 🔮

On the first episode of Series 2 of The Three Ravens Podcast, Martin and Eleanor head to Cumberland, England's most north-westerly county.

With the episode released just before St Benedict's Day, we discuss the tenets of, and assassination attempts against, the "Father of Western Monasticism," then scramble up the Pennine Hills to discuss the history and folklore of Cumberland - from Hadrian's Wall and the court of Eveling, England's faerie king, to rumours of winged hedgehogs, a spectral monk who cried himself to death, the legend of the outlaw Adam Bell, and much more besides.

Then it's time for the main event: Martin's telling of "Long Meg and her Daughters."

With the episode released on Oak Apple Day, we talk Charles II and the day's strange association with bottom-pinching, all before paddling round the coast to discuss the history and folklore from Suffolk - from The Green Children of Woolpit and the Rendlesham Forest UFO Incident to Black Shuck, the sunken city of Dunwich, and much more besides.

Then it's time for the main event: Eleanor's telling of "The Wild Man of Orford."

In this episode of The Three Ravens Podcast, Eleanor and Martin head to Middlesex, which most people now call 'London.'

With the episode released on St Dympna's Day, we talk about her life, which - spoilers - was pretty rough, as well as Toad Fairs and Franklin Days, all before tucking into a giant-sized helping of history and folklore from Middlesex - from Livery Companies and inter-dimensional portals to Old Father Thames, the vanishing village of Elswick, and much more besides.

Then it's time for the main event: Eleanor's telling of "Brutus of Troy and the Giant Gogmagog."

About Three Ravens 🔮

Three Ravens is a completely independent English myth and folklore podcast where we share stories, celebrate folk culture, and fall backwards through the hedgerows of history.

Hosted by real-life couple Eleanor Conlon and Martin Vaux, and mostly recorded at our home in rural Sussex in southern England, Three Ravens is rated 4.8/5 from over 500 reviews and has grown by word of mouth care of our lovely listener community ‘The Conspiracy of Ravens.’

We release three episodes a week, on Mondays, Thursday and Saturdays, through which we explore folktales, folkways, fairy stories, folk songs, mythology, local heritage, seasonal customs and traditional beliefs.

Our research inspires our retellings of stories from across history and culture, with episodes standing alone but connected together across over 500 chatty, mostly light-hearted, swear-free installments driven by passion, kindness and curiosity.

Now ranked as an all-time Top 5 podcast across several categories by Goodpods, charting in the Spotify, Apple and Rephonic UK Fiction Top 10 across 2024, 2025 and 2026, if you’re interested in ghosts, monsters, regional beliefs, and the things that unite us all, then join us round the campfire and listen in…
