Episode 75A

A bonus Druidcraft special

A

Music Hello everyone and welcome to Druidcast. I am your host Dave the Bard and Druidcast is brought to you by the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids.

This is a special bonus edition of Druidcast where I'm going to feature audio samples from the new audio version of Philip Cargogam' book Druid Craft. Now I interviewed Philip

about the book in the last episode, so if you haven't listened to Episode 75 just yet, I'd suggest

downloading that episode now and listening to that one before you go too much further with this one.

Now Philip wrote Druidcraft employing some ancient druidic and bardic techniques, and the

format of the written book lent itself perfectly to the audio format. We had the opportunity to use

various voices for the different sections and characters in the book, so the foreword was read by

Wiccan High Priestess and author Vivianne Crowley. The introductory poetry and prose was read by Stephanieicken High Priestess and author Vivian Crowley. The introductory poetry

in prose was read by Stephanie Cargom, the part of the Druidcraft teacher Eladir, and other

female voices within the stories was played by Sophia Cargom and Philip Cargom was the main

narrator of the book. Now I'm going to play you two sections during this episode.

The first section is the entire audio of chapter one,

and during this Philip explains the history and relationship between wicker and druidry,

and also the way the format of the book works.

And that will be followed by the Bard's Tale from Chapter 4 and a short

section from the colloquy of that same chapter. Now this has been an amazing project to work on,

and I'm so pleased to be able to bring you these sections of the book as part of Druid cast.

So, sit back and enjoy.
