Welcome to AfterWyrd, the bonus podcast where the Wyrdo's go off-script.
This week on the show, Andy and Craig get into:
- Geeky Pastimes and Dorset Folklore: Andy's been to a D&D event! He chats about how a conversation with a dungeon master led to discovering a huge D&D campaign based on Dorset folklore, including Maiden Castle, smugglers' lore, and corporeal lights. This leads to the discovery of a peculiar local charm, the 3 Bee Charm, which promises health, happiness, and good fortune. Andy also teases the idea of a Wyrd Wessex tabletop RPG, where listeners have to go back and listen to old episodes to win.
- Wyrd News: The Wyrdo's dive into some truly bizarre headlines, including:
- The Thirsty Priest: A church's video of a handsome priest goes viral, leading to a flood of "thirsty" comments.
- The Modern Vampire: A self-proclaimed "vampire" reveals a shocking diet of bloody sausages and a need to "feed" on ambient energy (with consent, of course!).
- The Randy Dolphin: The story of Reggie the bottlenose dolphin, who has been "basically drowning" swimmers in Lyme Bay, possibly due to his amorous advances.
- The Cursed Parcel: A woman on TikTok shares her story of a creepy, embroidered horse picture that she sold but mysteriously kept returning to her house.
