In this first episode of The Cunning Farmer, Todd Elliott and I begin our walk-through of his pivotal book and masterpiece, The Cunning Farmer: Agrarian Magical Practices, Mythology, and Folklore, diving first into the cross-pollination of myth and magik in view of the general human practice of agriculture. We also talk about ancient languages and how the study of language helps us understand the layers of colonialism and the truths hidden yet in our memory and marrow.

Note: in this episode, I say the name of the Biblical Eve is chara, but that is not true. It is chava and the version in the podcast is a simple mispeak. I apologize. Chara is the lenition of cara, the Irish word for friend.
