Well hello, hey, and hi there - we're currently at Black Shuck Festival in Suffolk doing a whole bunch of Three Ravens-related stuff, but, as it has been over a month since the end of Series 6, we thought that today, on Lammas Day, we might release this little update episode about what's been going on with us.To sweeten the deal, we have included excerpts from our two Patreon Exclusive episodes for July 2025, including a chunk of our discussion of 'The Books That Made Us' and the opening section of our Film Club episode, as released yesterday, about the wildly entertaining 1988 cult horror comedy movie 'The Lair of the White Worm.'While those things close the episode out, beforehand we have news about recent collaboration episodes made with some of our favourite podcasters, updates on our first sponsor - Three Spirit Drinks (use Offer Code THREERAVENS for 15% off any purchase!) and the rather momentous milestone we've literally just crossed - of half a million downloads!With lots of other bits of incidental chat, we know that for members of our Patreon community some of this isn't exactly new news, but nonetheless, if you have been chilling and not really following goings-on while episodes of our Lang Fairy Tales Project have been coming out then consider this a digest of what you might have missed.We really hope you enjoy it, and that you also enjoy Dog Days - we will have new chapters releasing every day on the main and Patreon podcast feeds throughout the month, so let's let 'Hot Dog Summer' off the leash and howl together at the Barley Moon! Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.
