Welcome to Roon Soup, a weekly podcast about magic, culture and the paranormal.

My name is Gordon and I shall be your host.

This week we are speaking with Corinne Boyer.

Based in the particularly green Pacific Northwest,

Corin is a writer, teacher, an all-around expert in folk herbalism and traditional plant law.

She joins us today to talk about her latest book, Plants of the Devil.

Before we begin, a bit of a heads up.

The audio quality isn't great on my end. I had to move to get

away from the sounds of the builders working on the guest house, but I probably should

have just stayed where I was and put up with it. I've done my best to clean it up but apologies for that.

Corinne however is loud and clear and who you are here to listen to anyway so let's do that now.

Corinne thank you very much for your time.

Thank you so much for having me.

Well, traditional first question, of course,

for first-time guests.

Karin, were you a weird kid?

Ha ha ha!

Uh, yeah, no surprise.

Yeah, I definitely was.

Yeah, just kind of tended towards one or two people and didn't ever really feel like a fit, you know? Still don't.

Nothing's really changed.

Yeah.
