    Meant to Be
    I stumbled upon this podcast while searching key words (beginner witch) on my Apple podcast app. And it was simply meant to be! I fell head first into a love affair with the content, Rowan’s charismatic voice and Rowan’s natural presentation of interesting topics. Rowan’s approach to each episode supports the listener in feeling like they are chatting with an old friend. Topics are well researched with intent. Listeners walk away with a lens of greater clarity. Bravo Season of the Witch!
  • Mr. Fulbottom
    I adore Rowan
    I love this podcast! Rowan is charming and not scared to be vulnerable. No matter the subject he will make you laugh or at the very least smile. He is like an old friend you can plug into when you need it. He shares personal stories and his way of expressing the craft. I have found inspiration in this podcast and use his insights in my daily life. Season 3 is already shaping up to be his best season yet. Rowan thank you for sharing and I look forward to your next episode.
  • crazydiamond1357
    Just ‘YASS’!!!!!! Dang NABBIT! Love this podcast ♥️
    And most importantly, love Rowan Oaken :-) He is unapologetically ‘him’, and does not shy away from the uncomfortable or truth (thank GOODNESS)! Podcast explores all facets of life & of this very ‘real’ human experience we’re all apart of; presenting thought-provoking, honest information/opinions in a matter-of-fact way that is refreshing, always relatable, always appreciated, and always, somehow… genuinely, hilarious 😂🤷‍♀️ I am not some one who typically laughs out loud listening to shows/podcasts but somehow… THIS one gets me every time 🤣🥰 Rowans ability to never take himself too seriously perhaps, most notably, how frequently he makes himself laugh is something I will NEVER tire of and value tremendously (the random ‘chuckles’ littered throughout every episode is probably my favorite thing… full stop) 😂😜🤗 I’m so SO glad stumbled on this ‘gem’ of a podcast recently! A sincere “Thanks” to Rowan, from bottom of my heart, “Thanks for being ‘you,’ always, ALL WAYS!” ♥️
  • marinecowgirl
    A wee bit misogynistic
    I wanted to love it until the host went on a weird diatribe equating women doing shadow work (something often done to deal with sexual assault or societal oppression) to a bunch of Valley girls who didn’t get the Barbies they wanted. Gross. Sincerely, a dumb woman.
  • jaysisbaby
    Love it!
    I absolutely love this show! My favorite parts are the unedited side tangents and random thoughts! I can completely relate and it makes me think of talking to my best friends 💜
  • GirlOffKilter
    BEST Podcast for the Modern Witch
    First of all, Rowan is the warmest, most delightful being. Listening to him brings me such comfort, and he is incredibly informative too. He does his research and shares his perspective with the utmost integrity (and class, and sass 😘). Can’t recommend this show enough ♥️
  • Mandyleighrtp
    Funny and informative!
    I love this podcast. So much fun to listen to you!
  • theartofbeecoming
    Rowan’s Sass and Truths are the best!
    I found Rowan through the Comfy Cozy Witch podcast (recommend highly) anyway, Rowan never fails to bring a smile in my day and pure laughter! I recommend Rowan’s sassy podcast to everyone!
  • LKC.Chicago
    Witchy, Bitchy, Sassy & Classy
    Thanks for the fabulous podcast. Listening from Chicago. The ideas and conversations are fun and full of ideas for making it through the tough times, practicing practical magic and always celebrating life.

    Spilling the Tea with Jennie ☕️
    Currently listening with my cuppa and laughing with you and our dear friend Jennie Blonde! What a fun episode! I’ve missed your show, but I completely understand! I love this time of year, and all the celebrations underneath the moon and stars.✨🌝I’m looking forward to the coming year, it’s going to be much better! I’m sure yours will very much be a wonderful year! 💫

    The Gold at the end of the Rainbow for Witches
    I recently started reconnecting with my craft. I was stumbling after years of hiking my way through the fog of the patriarchy and local masculine Christianity. But Rowan’s rainbow of acceptance & honoring your journey enchanted me to follow it to the pot of golden tea at its end! If you’re looking for a no-bias, be you boo boo witch podcast this is the place to start!
  • Meeshelina
    Highly recommend!
    The sassy witchy best friend I always wanted! Fabulous humor and great information. Keep being your fantastical self, Rowan!
  • MorriganOfTheMidwest
    Never stop being you.
    My daughter and absolutely love you. If you’re the Bob Ross of Hocus Pocus, then I guess I’m the Wicked Witch of the Midwest! 🤗💜
  • ookey_bookey_mama
    Love Rowan!!!
    I’m not a super big podcast listener because having people just talk to me often puts me to sleep. Or, I’ll get involved in what I’m doing and I won’t actually hear what’s being said. With Rowan though, I am fixated. Not only do I love watching him on IG, but I also love hearing him here on his podcast. Always good for a batch of wild laughter!! Lots of love @wild_hedge_witch 🌿🖤🌿
  • thesaltypeach88
    Hilarious romp through all things witchy!
    I just found this podcast a couple days ago, and I’ve been voraciously consuming every episode since. It’s usurped it’s way to the tippity top and is now my favorite witchy podcast — intelligent, informative, hilarious! There’s a lot here to love, my top favs being the history and Rowan’s voice. Thank you so much for this magickal gift of a podcast! Can’t wait for more and joining the cheese witch coven!
  • JaimeBlackBird
    Please don’t ever change!
    You’re a goddamn dreamboat! And please don’t worry your pretty little head about how much you know or don’t know about this or that! We do not care. You’re marvelous 😘✨
  • Hysop M
    Podcast personality to a T !!
    I’m so glad that Rowan was a guest on The Comfy Cozy Witch Podcast! I kinda threw it on like “eh, let’s see”. Rowan’s personality shines through the podcast. So informational and entertaining. I feel like I’m having a glass of wine with my witchy friends while listening to SOTW❤️.
  • Zenthropologist
    THAT VOICE
    Okay Ben Ravencroft, I see you. Just don’t go digging up any vengeful witch grimoires with the help of your local mystery gang
  • BooDood243
    Hope he Won’t Take This the Wrong Way But...
    Rowan’s voice and manner reminds me of the great Tim Curry, one of my all-time favorite actors. I was hooked instantly. Thank you and please give us more.
  • Cmoody9397
    Brilliant!
    I’ve found this podcast when he guest interviewed with Jenny the comfort cozy witch! I loved how funny and informational the episodes are! I wished i had something like this back when I was in the witch closet.. many moons ago 😂🤣 Rowan you have a new fan in Washington State 💜
  • Meese Keeten
    Unwanted Hamburgers 😂
    Add another corner of the world to your listenership because you’ve now got a fan in upstate NY. I randomly searched podcasts for Imbolc info and came across your insightful, authentic, and most importantly, wildly funny show. The fire seed ritual is exactly what I didn’t know I needed, so thanks for the inspiration and detailed instructions.🖤
  • kaylan Lay
    Hilarious with great info!
    Hooked after episode one! There’s been so many light bulb moments listening to the history and many many laughs! As someone who is at the beginning of my whitchy journey I’m loving the background and history!
  • Niczka
    Lighthearted Relief
    Rowan offers a much needed, lighthearted, but informational commentary when I’m on my way to work...dreading the upcoming 14 hour workday. Listening to this podcast, I forget about my workday for just a minute and enjoy my long commute! Thanks for being awesome. 😊
  • evangutt
    Soothing
    I love listening to Rowans voice. It’s soothing and I would listen to it for hours. Also, great information for people who are even just curious about witchcraft.
  • AWitch4Harry
    Not just the how... but the why
    As a new (but closeted) practitioner with a thirst for historical context, Rowen has created a platform that marries the historical “why” of the practice with the practical “how” to practice. Rowan is cheeky and charming, and as an American, I appreciate learning about his childhood and upbringing in England and how that has cultivated his practice of witchcraft. I look forward to every episode and furthering my knowledge on the subject. ❤️🌈

    Enchanting Get Away
    I don’t normally listen to podcasts but I stumbled on Season of The Witch by a referral from a social media creator I follow. I was immediately sucked in! Rowan has such a captivating voice and throughly thought out stories from personal experience, just captivate the listener and whisk them off to his memories and ideas and it is just brilliant!! I can’t get enough!
  • TheLadyOx
    Obsessed - the SOTW is foreverrrr
    My new happy place. There isn’t a single episode that I haven’t been completely obsessed with. Rowan is a gracious, hilarious and knowledgeable host and truly just such a joy to listen to. All the stars, all the accolades, he deserves it. ✨
  • Shaylezee
    One Episode & Hooked
    I have only listened to one episode so far and I’m obsessed! This easily will become one of my favorite podcasts - I was instantly laughing and feeling just glee while listening, but yet get to learn so much! This podcast is incredibly well done and so full of character. Rowan is awesome!
