Episode 18, featuring Callum Sutherland.
Callum is a researcher at the University of Glasgow who reached out to us via our twitter account to ask if we'd be interested in talking to him about his research on the urban wyrd and more generally the Scottish wyrd. We were delighted to chat with him and this episode is a somewhat trimmed down version of that conversation. We cover quite a lot of ground here including the works of Mark Fisher, what the wyrd means to Callum and to us, the Scottish character, media representations, Edinburgh vs Glasgow and much much more.

Episode 7 - The month of February marks LGBT+ History Month in Scotland, and elsewhere. And so, we take a short detour away from our more usual wyrd history… to an LGBT+ history of Scotland. Listeners are advised that the commentary includes some content and language which they may find uncomfortable listening, reflecting attitudes and practices of earlier times. No offence or distress is intended.
This is a safe place, for all, and we submit this episode with respect, for all.
Regular listeners will be aware that this episode is somewhat different in form as well as content from previous episodes. Usually we like to employ our own sounds and compositions, however for this episode it felt appropriate to source music which reflected the time periods being spoken about, and to generally avoid emotive or creepy sound effects.
Therefore, we'd like to acknowledge the pieces of music used and their performers. We would also like to to say that as far as possible we've tried to use music from the public domain, or which permits reuse. If we've erred here please let us know and we will be more than happy to make appropriate changes.
This episode featured:
Masculine women, feminine men, written by Jimmy Monaco and Edgar Lesie, performed by Frank Harris AKA Irving Kaufman.
It featured multiple early and renaissance classical guitar pieces by Jon Sayles, which can be found at http://www.jsayles.com/familypages/EarlyMusic.htm
it really is amazing the collection he's put together.
There was selections from the Sonata of Scots Tunes by James Oswald, performed by Concerto Caledonia and David McGuinness.
It featured Love Your Spell is Everywhere performed by Ben Selvin and his orchestra.
And also Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes by Alfred Newman and His orchestra
And finally it featured Sun Disco by Cow&Lake, of which Andrew Cowan, who designed the Tales from Wyrd Scotland logo, was Cow, and Nick Cole-Hamilton was Lake.
