## Resource

In this month's update episode we're chatting all about the folkiness of summertime - including Well Dressing and Rush Bearing! Though that's not all, as, in addition to sharing some of our own news, we're working through the story of Swithin, the English weather saint who once had a very holy hole, Swan Upping, the origins of cricket, Canada Day and America's birthday, too. Then we share the opening chunks of June's two Three Ravens Patreon Exclusive episodes. First comes the opening 25 minutes of our special episode about The History and Folklore of Board Games, which is followed by the first part of our Film Club episode all about Powell & Pressburger's 1947 nun-stravaganza Black Narcissus . We really hope you enjoy this tasting menu and selection of Three Ravens bits and pieces, and we will be back again tomorrow with a new Lang Fairy Tales episode! Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon. Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, 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 Rave…
