    Heresy
    In regard to your most recent episode, thank you thank you thank you for saying what I have been thinking for the past five years so succinctly. Someone had to say it and I appreciate you.

    Ode over talks too much
    I do like this podcast but have to stop listening sometimes cause Ode over talks too much and doesn’t let the parents hardly finish when they try to talk …sometimes I with the parents would have a few episodes together and give us a break from Ode’s know it all ness so that we can actually learn from the podcast

    Great Podcast
    I only started dipping my toe into paganism as of a couple of years ago, so I feel like there is still so much to I have to learn! I love that this podcast makes this additional knowledge feel accessible and down to earth. They provide engaging and thoughtful topics for discussion and I always come away with something new. As a bonus, I found out that 3PAC lives in the same town as me (go figure, lol)! This makes the discussions feel even closer to home and more personal, which has been a huge bonus during the last few years when everything started feeling so much less connected during the pandemic. Regardless of where you live, this podcast is worth the listen!!

    Awesome show!

    Enjoy parts of this podcast
    I will say I enjoy a lot of this podcast. I do like the interviews with other members of the community and I really appreciate the fact that they’ve discussed some important topics in the broad scope of paganism. I really appreciate the discussions of trans inclusion , racism and being aware of cultural appropriation. I think Carr’s Yelling of “Odes stone corner “ etc could be toned down a bit. It blasts ones ears if they’re wearing buds or listening through car speakers. I enjoy Gwyns perspective and Like the fact that Carr asks important questions to keep the conversations going. I like Ode but I just wish that they would hold back and let their parents finish their train of thought. It gets distracting and at times I have to turn off the podcast. I think ode is a valuable member of the show and has a lot to offer. Perhaps they can just take a deep breath And wait for others to finish speaking.

    One of my new favorites
    Loving this podcast so far! But hey, I’m gonna need more cat spam please 😂😻
  • GoddyssIncognito
    Wonderful Podcast!
    I thoroughly enjoy this podcast, and every person on it. Each has their own perspective and flavor, and I value what each person brings to the table. I love hearing other viewpoints and ideas, and I always learn something new- even though I have been practicing (at first without even knowing it) since the age of three- so 51 years now. Keep up the good work, Car, Gwyn and Ode! I love you all. Brightest blessings!
  • PoesyGirl
    The child on this show is disrespectful and outspoken.
    Ode is outspoken and has so very little knowledge on anything. Very disrespectful
  • Ewitches
    Interrupting
    The only thing that would make this podcast better is if Ode didn’t interrupt so much when their parents spoke. It’s constant. I want to hear what they have to say too.
  • Bee2317
    wish I liked it
    There is such an argumentative tone to the whole thing, sounds like you guys are bickering and it’s really really boleasant to listen to. And the loud one keeps interrupting everyone else, let them speak!

    One of my Favorites, but...
    I really like this podcast. I’ve been listening for quit sometime on Spotify & love the creativity, energy, & the segments they all do. I also love the little singing they do before each one, it’s cute!! Like Gwynn’s Garden Gems & Ode’s Stone Corner(: I also love how they support/promote other Pagans!!(: But I’m sorry, I have to say it... Ode is quit rude... They interrupt all the time, act as if their opinion IS the “right” opinion always, & are quit immature for their age. I thought they must be a teenager ((when I first started watching the podcast)) & let it slide. But I found out they are actually 30!! I’m 22 & feel like I am more mature than them... There’s many episodes I’ve sadly had to skip, because Ode interrupts so much that I get off track, & can forget what Gwynn or Car were trying to get across & voice... It would also be nice to hear their opinions more. But besides that though, they’re awesome, educated, proud people. They have opened my eyes to many many things, have shown me new interesting topics that I’ve started researching myself, & they all seem like very genuine people(: I also LOVE the events they do with the community, like The Yuleing!! Definitely give them a listen(:

    Good podcast but...
    I love this podcast to a point. Their politics gets in the way of what they are trying to do. On the Facebook group is only if you agree.
  • Dust Sprite Mama
    Wonderfully entertaining and educational!
    I love this podcast. It’s one of my top four witchy podcasts for good info and just plain fun to listen to!
  • MercyFire
    Such a treat
    I love to listen to these three and their various perspectives. They are people I’d happily have over for tea. Great audio, great discourse, great information. I’m solitary, which is hard sometimes, but listening to 3PAC makes me feel part of the greater community.

    Could be better
    I listen to this podcast regularly, although not every week. The hosts have the best of intentions and I think it’s important that this podcast exists. However it has a lot of issues and I often find myself skipping episodes or just nopeing out of an episode partway though. 1. Audio quality is not great. It’s listenable, but poor, and you’d think with all the Patreon money and ads they would be able to fix this. Guest episodes can be particularly awful, which is a real shame. 2. They run ads from the same five or so people constantly and it’s a bit strange (including having the exact same TWSC pre-roll ad on every episode). 3. The issue of Ode. There are plenty of reviews already noting that Ode talks over everyone else, which hasn’t changed, so I won’t re-hash that. The other problem is that Ode doesn’t know nearly as much as they think they do. They still talk and act very much like a teenager despite (I think?) being well older than that, and it makes their misinformed “well ACTUALLY” type interruptions that much more annoying. Gwen gets steamrolled by Ode constantly, which is infuriating, because 90% of the time it’s just to repeat exactly what Gwen has already said, or was trying to say before Ode interrupted. When I rage-quit an episode it’s usually because of them. 4. Some of the show’s content is too fluffy for my taste. I won’t go into much detail there because I’m aware that’s only my personal preference. I just wish they were a little more skeptical about some things. 5. The current segments are not altogether useful or interesting in my opinion. It feels like they just do them because they’ve always done them. The more recent ancestor-based segment is better, but the others can go. The shouting/singing intros can also go, please. Now that I’ve dunked on them for a few paragraphs, here are a few positives that keep me listening despite all that. 1. They have guests at an appropriate frequency and always treat them well. Usually guests on podcasts are an “eyeroll-and-skip” situation for me, but not on this one. 2. I greatly appreciate that the 3 major pagan paths are represented here and comparing/contrasting insights are regularly provided. 3. Carr’s role as the question-asker is a great vehicle for digging deeper into topics, especially when there are guests. He’s pretty good at it and it helps make up for his lack of experience as a druid. 4. I appreciate that they focus in on individual topics that don’t always get a lot of attention in the usual pagan books or media. They don’t always have enough expertise or organization to do them full justice, but when they hit a topic well, it really works and I have better learned these topics because of it. TLDR: This podcast needs help. It could and should be so much better and I really hope that it gets there. But for now it’s only good when it’s not actively infuriating.

    Much needed podcast
    Alright. I’ve been meaning to write this for a while. I am a Celtic green/cottage solitary witch, dating a Druid, I have been trying to learn as much pagan info as I can but there is SO much info out there and much of it conflicts with each other because it’s from so many people. I have learned wonderful Celtic info that is otherwise a little hard to find and find correct info. This podcast gives you 3 points of view (and others because they are SO inclusive). They really dive deep into things and clear so much up. They don’t agree on everything and can talk about things with valid points and info. I love 3 Pagans and a cat! Never stop giving us content. 🥰😘😍
  • Jay+Bee
    Too Political
    They’ve had some good episodes (Gwion Raven is a delight!), but I ended up giving up on this podcast. They inject their politics into it too much, and though that might work for some folks, that’s not what I’m looking for.
  • E. Kathleen.
    Love!
    So glad I found this!!! Even though I’ve been practicing for years, I can’t get enough!!!!! Even if they’re discussing something I’m super familiar with, the interactions and info are awesome! It’s like being with friends!!
  • rivermaison
    Awesome!
    These guys are super informative and fun to listen to! Even if you aren’t interested in practicing the ways they do, each topic is still super interesting to learn about. You should check out!
  • LazyWhiteWitch
    Love y’all.
    I have just found y’all. I listen to past episodes at work while I’m doing the tedious work of data entry :). All of y’all are full of very useful information for the newer generation of witches. Thank you.
  • LackyLady13
    Love! But would want to hear more Gywn!
    Absolutely love to listen while doing computer work at my job, I find myself grabbing a note book and jotting down for later, love that it feels like they definitely take their research seriously. Also I have purchased a few of the recommendations from etsy stores and never been let down. I would love to hear more from Gywn, I find Ode interrupts, and I really would have liked to hear the final thought from Gywn and Car... not always her opinion, but still love!! And like her thoughts, just take turns and stop interrupting... but overall great!
  • HopTheFence
    Let them speak!
    So much knowledge between them but I really get annoyed how often the youngest constantly speaks over the elders. She rarely lets them complete their thoughts and basically says the same thing they were going to say in her own words. I hope you’re reading this Ode, stop interrupting your elders! I’d like to hear more of the parents background knowledge and wisdom. All around fun podcast to listen to and you can learn a lot of you can tolerate the interruptions
  • Moose-alini
    Really enjoying, but...
    I really enjoy this podcast as a couple of decades long practicing eclectic (Druidry and Path of Elen, primarily). However, I would really like to hear both Gwyn and Car more often. Oh, they talk, but Ode just talks over them and takes over their talking points. She seems like a very young know-it-all teen (I’m aware she’s older... she just doesn’t seem like it) who just can’t help herself from giving an “Actually...” to her parents EVERY THREE SECONDS. I wish she would take a breath once and while and be present with her parents and let them speak. I can almost hear the planning of interruption with her energy. It makes it very difficult to listen to. Otherwise, there is good information and it has fun energy other than the interruptions. I think, in the long run, this could hurt the podcast. That’s sad, because it could be a really good one if she’d learn some listening and presence skills.
  • Damimi141517
    Amazing.. learned soo much and love the dynamic
    Amazing tripped upon this little pod cast .. and was like wow I love this dynamic, I have raised my girls sorta pagan , kinda witchy , kinda made aware of all paths .. so funny in my current path hekate I wanna say light my crazy self on a mission... been learning sooo much about her , and our family is like 4 or so different paths 😬🤣some time we debate, or agree to disagree 🤨🥰all in love
  • Slagletron
    Eh
    The daughter basically just talks over her parents the whole time and is a huge “know it all”. It’s a stressful listen. I tried but I just can’t get into it ugh.
  • Miiva
    One of the few reputable pagan podcasts
    The hosts are very knowledgeable about the history of paganism and the distinct schools of practice. Very well done! A refreshing respite from the multiplicity of incompetent and saccharine pagan podcasts out there.
  • Minersechs
    Entertaining show but wasn’t for me
    The show is a platform for the three hosts: two parents and their adult child (you can really tell the adult child ‘wears the pants’ in that household). Well intentioned folk. Shows are a mix of curated content, opinions, and guest interviews. I enjoyed the recipes, and information on stones and gardening the most. I found myself cringing at the gratuitous swearing, yelling, posturing, and virtue signaling. You get a really good glimpse into what the modern pagan scene is like though and that’s nice for anyone still in the “broom closet”. Probably why I’m practicing solitarily. XD
  • itsmeitscathy
    Just a suggestion
    I really like this podcast and I feel all three have great conversations, are intelligent and insightful, and each of them have good things to say. I would like to listen to what Gwyn and Car have to say without Ode finishing their sentences, correcting them, or trying to smarten up what they have to say. She seems to have a bit of a know it all complex.
  • Vkue
    On the fence
    I do really like some episodes of this podcast. However, I cannot deal with the constant interruptions. Particularly Ode speaking over her parents. Regardless of social standing, if someone is presenting something it’s quite rude to keep interrupting when the person was getting to that specific talking point anyways. It can get frustrating to listen to. Otherwise a very informative podcast.
  • Open Oxalis
    Delightful Pagan Podcast
    As someone who is recently (over the the last 2 years) exploring spirituality in nature and my ancestors’ religions, I was excited to find this podcast! I am still have a lot to learn and this podcast helps a lot. I love that this is three very different types of pagans that not only respect one another’s beliefs, they all celebrate together! They are very transparent about information and topics as well as encourage experts to correct them where they need to, which is a sign of a good podcast in my opinion. They encourage learning and practicing in a way that suits you and your path. Which is a wonderful message to hear these days. Keep up the great work and thanks for making this podcast!
  • Lyssalala
    Lovely podcast
    Conversations are thorough, educational, passionate, and compassionate. These 3 are what we need more of in the pagan community - thoughtful and uncompromising in their insistence that the community by safe and inclusive. Fantastic stuff. Love these guys and this podcast.
  • teagueislande
    Love the podcast but.....
    So I love the podcast, but can’t really take Car screaming while introducing segment. I listen with earbuds, and have a hearing deficit. It is quite disconcerting. Can he lower the volume a bit please???
  • veganmermama
    Addicting!
    I just recently found this podcast and I must say, the whole thing is just amazing. It’s informative, funny, and never, never boring. I listen to this every time I fold laundry and it helps pass the time. Thanks for sharing guys! Can’t wait to hear more.
  • feliciabegoinplaces
    ...Misinformation in the first couple minutes...
    So, let me just say appropriation is rampant everywhere. I am agnostic but I’ve been studying different heathen religions. Right off the bat Ode calls people that practice Ásatrú white nationalists. This is disturbing and not factual. It’s the equivalent of calling Islamic fundamentalists, Muslim. Really wish people would do some research before they spout garbage to the public. If you want to read up and educate yourself look up Hilmar Hilmarsson and read up more on real Norse paganism. This is truly disappointing.
  • Allantejt
    Thank you!!
    I love this podcast!! I am so grateful. One suggestion - one woman is CONSTANTLY interrupting another woman while she is talking. Finishing her sentences, cutting her off. I am sensitive to that, so it would be awesome if the latter woman was able to talk without being interrupted. Otherwise, awesome job!!! 🧡🌽🌾
  • LaurenK.
    I want to love this as much as everyone else, but...
    This podcast is one of the best pagan podcasts out there but, for me, it is very hard to listen to. Mainly, Ode, let your parents speak! The number of times I have been listening and either Gwen or Carr start to add to the conversation from a different perspective and Ode interrupts with her own views and scholarly knowledge is infuriating, especially when it’s Gwen talking about Wicca and Ode interrupts to mansplain Wicca to the former Wiccan in the room. This show is more “Ode, her parents when they can get a word in edgewise, and a cat”. Want to love it, but it’s a chore to listen to.
  • hottaffyglass
    Full of Goodies!
    Great audio, well produced, and diverse. Three different viewpoints and traditions all in one podcast and I love all the information provided. Amidst the usual podcast banter there's all sort of deep dives into topics that I really enjoy. And their Wheel of the Years specials are neat because thy come up with factoids I haven't heard anywhere else.
  • Cmconn108
    A pagan podcast I can actually hear on the subway!
    I don’t listen to many pagan podcasts primarily because the audio is normally horrific. Not only does 3 pagans and a cat have great audio, I love the hosts! The dynamic between the three of them is so heartwarming, it leaves me wishing I could go hang out with them. Also, the content is great. I am so happy they all follow different paths because it leaves room for interesting exchanges of view points. However now I’m all caught up and can no longer binge listen which is sad. Excited for new episodes!!
  • MazingerMe
    One of the best
    I’ve been listening since the beginning and held off on a rating until I felt the show had hit its stride. Now, I find myself excited when each new episode shows up, which is why I have to go 5 stars. Car, Gwen, and Ode do not claim to be experts, but you just know by listening that they do the best research they can on each subject. I love that it feels like you are just in the room participating in the conversation. I hope this one goes for years.
  • Ewynhof
    Great!
    Love the podcast! The info is wonderful.
  • kittie1991
    Awesome!!
    I love this podcast!!!! It’s highly informative without coming off patronizing or condescending. I found this as wonderfully relatable and entertaining without sacrificing its purpose
  • HubertDarling
    Love this Family
    A great open conversation within a family, all following different pagan paths! I didn’t know I was looking for this until I found it. Car, Gwyn, and Ode are funny, informative, and each give their own unique perspective on their paths.
  • Willowgreene
    Great Pagan Podcast
    This is a fabulous new pagan podcast that covers a lot of information. Every eopisode is very concise and relevant. Highly recommended!
  • Selenes92
    LOOOOOOVE THIS!
    I absolutely love this podcast. The diverse cast and the interactions between them is amazing. Great for listening. Hands down one of my favorite podcasts already.
  • Jules Kanel
    Fantastic
    I love listening to these three charming people! The great audio quality also elevates it.
  • SnarkyLarkie
    I love it!
    I love the structure and the personalities. I’m a fairly easy going Pagan and enjoy podcasts that don’t take themselves too seriously, but at least have a structure and are informative and this delivers on all those points. I really enjoy listening and look forward to more episodes. Keep up the great work and blessed be!
