Join Shannon and Nick for a magical journey into the fairy realm (just don’t eat anything or you’ll be trapped forever…or whatever). They cover the Welsh goddess Rhiannon – Shannon resists singing a certain tune by Fleetwood Mac (you’re welcome). They also discuss the biggest Instagram icon of all time, Monstera Deliciosa - #MonsteraMonday, anyone?

Join Shannon and Nick for an auditory celebration of Lunar New Year! Nick sheds some light (perhaps from a delicate paper lantern) on this ancient holiday, tells the tale of a blood thirsty dragon that is afraid of the color red (seriously), and they get a little ragey about maps. Shannon gives an introduction to the jade plant and shares a spell to help you draw in some of that sweet, sweet cash money.

In a very exciting deity profile, Nick tells the story of Guan Yin, the Buddhist bodhisattva who is the namesake for one of the tastiest oolong teas of all time – Tieguanyin. The episode finishes with a rant about inconsiderate pet owners putting salamanders in jeopardy.

For information on where to send bags of precious jewels or invitations to join you and yours at an authentic Lunar New Year celebration, you can email [email protected] or message them on Instagram @WandsandFrondsPod.

Join Shannon and Nick for an episode about LOVE. They start by covering one of the most iconic, overpriced symbols of the February Hallmark holiday, Roses. Nick shares a home-grown candle spell to help you focus on loving the most important person in your life – you! They also gab about the uncool Roman cultural appropriation that led to the STRIKING similarities between Greek and Roman gods. Of course, they cover Aphrodite this week…like, duh. There is talk of a magic girdle (trend forecast for 2021) and a conversation about Cupid being a real dumb bro.

For information on where to send bags of precious jewels, invitations to Atlantis, or really anything your magical little heart desires, you can email [email protected] or message them on Instagram @WandsandFrondsPod.

Join Shannon and Nick for an action packed episode filled with lunar gardening how-tos and spicy tips for Imbolc (there is also a lengthy conversation about Celtic languages, and they butcher a lot of words...sorry about that). They also expose the catholic church for EVEN MORE pagan holiday thievery (insert shocked pikachu face here), and spill some tea about teenage lycanthropy. Finally, Nick gives an iconic intro to an even more iconic goddess, Artemis.

Due to an underwhelming response to the call for rubies, these witches will now accept bags of any precious jewels. For information on where to send anything other than blood diamonds, you can email [email protected] or message them on Instagram @WandsandFrondsPod.

Join Shannon and Nick on a seaside escape. From the astrological chart of Squidward Tentacles, to using seaweed in your magic practice, to learning how to tell if that thing you found on the beach is actually dead - this one goes out to all the sea witches. You'll also learn to love the god of the sea (and earthquakes?), Poseidon.

If you have thus far been unable to send these witches a bag of rubies, they are now also accepting invitations to the lost city of Atlantis (or any other underwater city). To send an invitation to your watery lair, you can email [email protected] or message them on Instagram @WandsandFrondsPod.

Thank you for your patience - we know this one was late, but we promise there is a VERY valid excuse.

Now, onto the show! This week, join Shannon and Nick as they make some very dated home security references in a conversation about home protection magic (hint, more Witch's Ladders, less lasers). Every grandma's favorite piece of bathroom decor, the Spider Plant, gets the love and attention it truly deserves, and the witches take you on an ODYSSEY to learn about the potion-wielding Circe (ODYSSEY, get it?).

...they also go on a bit of a rant about the horrible, racist scum who are co-opting runes.

Join Shannon and Nick for their premier Q&A! They discuss open and closed witchcraft practices, ouija boards, their personal practices, and how Nick once owned a marvelous, robust, collection of Hawaiian shirts. This very special episode is brought to you by our amazing listeners, and lots of wine spritzers.

Join Shannon and Nick as they share a powerful cord-cutting spell for the dumpster fire that was 2020, the first ACTUAL houseplant on the podcast that just so happens to be super trendy at the moment (hoyas!), and why "Dark Buddhism" is more than just a little sus (can you say, spirituality for sociopaths?). They also give some hot takes about Jason the Argonaut during a passionate defense of the brother-murdering sorceress Medea.

As a bonus, they quote Homestar Runner twice in one episode...elder millennials, am I right?

Join Shannon and Nick as they cover the magic of the wonder-herb Echinacea, and welcome Wands & Fronds first guest, Nick's Uncle Gaius. They rant and rave about keeping Saturn in Saturnalia, why we need to #StopTheSteal (Christians stealing pagan traditions that is), and Nick shares recipes for some tasty, and magical, cocktail potions.

Join Shannon and Nick as they cover Shannon's favorite dumpster-dive plant, Poinsettias! Nick dishes on a highly questionable virtual new-age practice, and shares tips on how to turn your favorite grandma brooch into a bonafide piece of magical armor. They also do some ridiculous British accents (sorry England) and discuss forest Santa a.k.a. the Holly King. Most importantly, we discover that both will indeed do anything for a bag of rubies (seriously...anything...just ask).
