Narnia's The Silver Chair: Remember the Signs

Narnia's The Silver Chair: Father Time and the Eye of the Needle

What was the Eye of the Needle and why did Jill pass through it? What made Puddleglum's foot so strong in stomping out the green fire? How did we get stuck with a comfort-breaking challenge again? (How did three sisters get through recording this?)  I hope you enjoy this episode, and in these dangerously contentious times, I hope we can all take with us what the Underlanders of Bism learned: "Why, then, your majesty is a friend!"

Narnia's The Silver Chair: Remember the Signs

Four signs, two children and a marshwiggle walk into a castle... Colleen Mueller joins us on the journey from British boarding school to a Parlaiment of Owls, through the icy moors and to Harfang Castle. Grab some berries-and-cream tea and enjoy the nostalgia and the challenge. (Are we really going to talk about comfort again? I'll give you one guess!) For more of Colleen, you'll find her blog at colleenmuellerwrit.wix.com/mysite.  She shares musings on both popular books and writing itself.  As always, you'll find more on Substack, Instagram and Etsy under Mystic Tea and Stories.  Thank you for listening!

Narnia's Dawn Treader: The Albatross is Here

JC Alexandre is back for another adventure to the Utter East of Narnia (and into the things of God). The tea: Wait, we might actually mean punch? The narrative: More like a story than a spell, and He'll tell it to us for years and years.  The PARDES: We're invited into a personal confidence, and reassured. The Challenge: Five minutes to transform your day. As always, you'll find more on Substack, Instagram and Etsy under Mystic Tea and Stories.  Thank you for listening!

Narnia's Dawn Treader: Renew Your Mind

JC Alexandre, fantasy author, and I explore The Voyage of the Dawn Treader from The Chronicles of Narnia.  JC brings us droll humor, sailors' tea punch (you must try it) and new recs (a Narnia cartoon by the director of Peanuts? Who knew?) Content warning: Things get a little dragonish, by which we mean, disgusting. Watch your tummy.  You can find JC at jcalexandrewrites.com and on social as @jcalexandrewrites. His book, The Light Prince Grail, is available in paperback and e-book.

Narnia's Prince Caspian: The Ecstatic Dance

Old Narnians on the Dancing Lawn, David and Goliath & doubting Thomas, (what's with the DLF acronym?) and Biblical astrology (as opposed to today's trends). Join Cathy Scoon and I for some realizations and musings from the Chronicles of Narnia's Prince Caspian.  You'll find Cathy on Instagram as @cathanascoon, and you can follow her podcast, Eruditely Ersatz [https://open.spotify.com/show/2BDWkKuwTBHjv1tsK4jGl3?si=959080e77fdb4ad6], on Spotify. As always, you can reach me (Amanda) at mysticteaandstories@gmail.com [mysticteaandstories@gmail.com].
