20. The Goat that Told Lies

Épisode 20

dimanche 6 avril 2025 • Durée 20:52

Storytelling was at the heart of Traveller life, and this traditional Traveller tale was a favourite of Duncan Williamson, a masterful storyteller whose voice has kept countless old stories alive. And no doubt, once you hear it too, you’ll understand why.

19. Changelings

Épisode 19

dimanche 30 mars 2025 • Durée 25:39

Changelings are some of Scotland’s most unsettling folklore, for what could be more disturbing than an innocent bairn being stolen by a malicious fairy and a changeling, a wrinkled and wailing fairy baby, left in its place.

In this episode Jenny explores the lore surrounding these strange replacements for stolen bairns, and tells two tales of changelings: A Fairy Changeling, and Wee Johnny in the Cradle.

Épisode 16

14. Through the Mist

Épisode 14

dimanche 16 février 2025 • Durée 27:49

In Scottish folklore mist swirls in the liminal space between this world and the parallel Otherworld, where fairies, spirits, and monsters exist just beyond our boundaries of perception. But when the mist descends, for better or worse, we humans can pass through the veil and into the otherworld.

In this episode Jenny tells two eerie tales of those who passed through the mist, and what they found on the other side…

The first is called ‘Baking in Creag Hàstain’ and comes from Balemore on the island of North Uist.

The second is called ‘The Blue Cap’ and comes from Kintyre.

13. Thieves: Tales of Cunning and Curses

Épisode 13

dimanche 9 février 2025 • Durée 23:52

Thieves play many roles in Scottish folklore, and while for the most part they are the worst of the worst, this isn’t always the case!

In this episode Jenny tells the tales of two thieves, firstly, ‘The Troublesome Son’, from Glenluce in the Borders, and secondly, ‘An Gille Dubh’ from Argyll.

12. Fin Folk: Tall, Dark, and Dangerous

Épisode 12

dimanche 2 février 2025 • Durée 27:39

The Fin Folk are a strange race of sea-people that live off the coasts of Orkney and Shetland. They are tall, dark, mysterious… and covered in big flappy fins. In this episode Jenny explores how the Fin Folk live, the vanishing island they call home, and their (very much unreciprocated) desire to marry humans.

She also tells the tale of ‘The Farmer of Evie’, a traditional Orcadian folktale about how the mysterious isle of Eynhallow came to rest between Evie and Rousay.
