Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 124 - Pro Hac WitchaeIn this episode we are discussing chapters 7 and 8 of The Black Bird Oracle by Deborah Harkness. An episode so nice that we had to do it twice. Yes, the pod calamities do persist, but we're still here.  This week we're chatting about magical power point, wands?, more Stephen, our Matthew arrival countdown, oracles, cards, and more.  I left in all the giggles this time, because it feels like we all might need them.  xoxo Jen2024-10-131h 33Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 120 - Endings, Beginnings, Change Dearest Clovers, Today is a bittersweet day. In this episode, we're announcing our hiatus from podcasting. Both of us are about to embark upon major life changes and, 120 episodes and five years later, we think it's appropriate to give C&C an intermission. We hope to answer your questions in the episode, but here's a summary: we're planning a possible return if and when there's new material, but, for now, this seems like the best choice. Our episodes will remain on our website and on iTunes and Spotify and...2022-07-1154 minChamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 119 - ADOWTV Series Wrap II - Gestalt FeelingsHappy Sunday Clovers!

The moment when we saw the series premiere of the series at All Souls Con in 2018 seems both past and present as we end this television journey. Surely some of you can relate to this feeling. For this episode we are discussing characters and their relationships throughout he series, series-wide themes, and the adaptation and production as a whole. Deepest apologies for the background noise, particularly in Jen's audio.

Sorry for the brief delay in getting you this episode -- sometimes the external world plays tricks with our recording and editing schedule. Nonetheless -- we're bringing you our first wrap episode for S3 of A Discovery of Witches TV. In today's episode, we're talking about character arcs -- what makes a good arc, what makes a regressive character arc, and which characters in ADOWTV S3 have the best and most complete character arcs. We're also discussing some themes (redemption! justice? revenge? eternity! connectedness!) and some of our...2022-04-241h 22Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 115 - A Discovery of Witches TV 3x07 - The Last DanceClovers, Somehow, impossibly, we've made it here - to the finale of the adaptation of A Discovery of Witches. It's bittersweet -- we're glad to see the Bishop-Clairmont scion get their happy ending, but it's hard to close the curtain on this wonderful production and its cast and crew. In this episode, we're talking about closure -- where we found it, where we didn't, and how you pin the tail on an antagonist. We're also gearing up for our season (and series) wrap episodes and processing how we feel about having...2022-04-031h 03Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 114 - A Discovery of Witches TV 3x06 - Menace PalaceHappiest equinox, Clovers! We hope that there are glimmers of spring (or fall) wherever you are and that today finds you safe, well, and full of joy. So, HOLY ADAPTATION, BATMAN. We're delighted to talk today about the smart, courageous, and very satisfying changes the writers' room made for this episode and what that means for the end of our series. As usual, we're also talking about character arcs, Gallowglass's pectorals (we can't help it), and what it means when your protagonist loses the moral high ground. 2022-03-201h 05Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 113 - A Discovery of Witches TV 3x05 - Birks N' SocksHappiest Sunday, Clovers. We're nearing the end of our coverage of A Discovery of Witches TV and this episode makes it clear that we're getting ready to tie up the plot and say our goodbyes. There's a lot to love here, but we're also facing the consequences of our limited time with our favorite characters and the adaptive choices we've made along the way. In today's episode, you'll hear our take on gaucho pants (hard pass), Alex Kingston (hell to the yes), and whether spellbinding a blood rage vampire makes any difference (or any sense).2022-03-061h 06Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 112 - A Discovery of Witches TV 3x04 - All For None Wow. As of yesterday, we've reached the finale of A Discovery of Witches TV -- it's an incredible accomplishment for the cast, the crew, the producers, and the fandom. We're sad that we won't have any more episodes to look forward to, but we're going to prolong the fun for as long as we can. In this episode, we're talking about the adaptive choices we've made that have consequences for how Episode 3x04--and the rest of the series--have to play out.

We hope that February is treating you well and that you're delighting in S3 of A Discovery of Witches TV as much as we are. In this episode, we're traveling to New Orleans to reckon with Matthew's past and the remainder of Marcus's family. Meanwhile, Diana and Phoebe are hot on the trail of the Book of Life and Gallowglass and Sarah have conspired to wreck us emotionally. Join us for a conversation about character arcs, condensed plotwork, interiority, and what exactly we might be doing with Satu...2022-02-061h 06Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 110 - ADOWTV 3x02 - Knight on Rage PonyThank you so much for joining us for this extended episode of our A Discovery of Witches TV season 3 coverage.

It's been a long haul, but we're glad to have you here with us for another year of All Souls fandom.

We've got a lot to say this week about vampire feeding--consent, etiquette, teaching, ethics--and then lots more to say about the Taylor family dynamics and whether Phoebe's supposed inability to return...2020-05-241h 19Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 75 - Adolescent Hootenanny Wherever you are, we hope you are well and safe --- we hope you get to spend the day remembering, honoring, and celebrating the caring, nurturing people in your life. If today is hard for you, we wish you peace and hope that you find something today that brings you joy. Who knows, maybe it will be this episode! Phoebe's frisky, and so are we! Today, we're exploring consent, parenting, and the relationship between sexuality and feeding in vampire novels while discussing Chapters 18, 22, and 23 of Time's Convert. It's sensual, silly, and also very...2020-05-101h 20Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 74 - Morality SnagWherever you are in the world, we hope it's a peaceful, quiet day and that you're safe and healthy and making the best of things.

We're back! Thanks for giving us a little bit of a break to decide how we're going to process Time's Convert -- it's a very different book from the All Souls Trilogy, so we decided to approach it in a non-linear (but highly sensical!) way. Today, we're starting strong with Chapters 1, 2, and 4 -- we've got a VERY AWKWARD dinner party to attend before we turn Phoebe into a vampire and begin her afterlife. You can dive into the new story (and join us on #TeamFreyja) while we get busy posting the...2020-04-121h 12Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 72 - The Spreadsheet Olympics Happy Sunday, Clovers. At long last, you have the nerd-a-riffic, highly specific content you've been waiting for -- the whole All Souls Trilogy plot shebang in one spreadsheet.

Procrastinating chickens. This week, we're talking about all the themes covered by the All Souls Trilogy -- identity, family, love and trauma, redemption, the meaning of the epigraph, and on and on. While wrapping our brains around these huge topics, we're also talking about redeeming antagonists, the price of responsibility, divinity, cosmic duologies, and even a little tiny bit of time travel. It's a big, meaty episode, so dig in and let us know what you think by shooting us a message...2020-02-161h 57Chamomile & CloveChamomile & CloveChamomile & Clove - An All Souls Podcast - Episode 70 - The List on the Seat of Our Pants How does one wrap up a trilogy?

You try your damned best and see what shakes out at the end. We made a list and we tried to follow it, y'all.

Once you grab a copy of the slideshow and the beverage of your choice, you're ready to embark upon the semi-epic discussion of the *seven* primary plots in the Book of Life and what does (and doesn't) make the story move.

Hours and hours of planning and note-taking, laughing, crying, recording, and editing has come to an end. In this episode, we're talking about Chapters 40 and 41 of the Book of Life, including the narrative conceit of blood rage, Diana's character arc, and an unexpected (and apparently VERBOTEN) reference to Grease 2.
