“I was really excited to listen to the episode on Frau Perchta and Gryla, since I have done quite a bit of reading on Perchta but haven’t found much in the way of interesting analysis and certainly no gender-based comparisons of them with similar winter (but masculine) “punisher” figures.
Sadly, right after the introduction, the entire thing was punctuated with loud and painful-sounding guttural noises. The narrator mentioned having a “dry throat,” but the noises were so loud and jarring that I found myself unable to continue.
I’m going to see if the writer has anything online, but my advice for the future is to remember that podcasts are a medium, it’s not a live recording, and sound is important.”
