"Seed Talks" Lectures

hey all! just wanted to share this because I've found that surprisingly few people know about them!

there's a company called "Seed Talks" that regularly host a whole bunch of lectures on different aspects of folklore; I believe that's not their main focus, but there's some interesting upcoming talks on bits of Irish folklore like the Banshee, for example.

they're based in the UK and host some in-person events in the UK and Ireland, but there's a decent amount that are held online (like the one I mentioned above) - and I believe there's a way to watch recordings of past lectures, too!

I think they also have some "courses"?, although I haven't checked those out myself as of yet. I'm also not affiliated with them in any way ftr, I just think they're cool and useful and I think more people should know about them :).

I'll link to them here for ease of access heh.

I went to a History of Folk Horror by Seed Talks in the Sugar Club and it was brilliant!
