    Embracing the Woo with Rachel Dratch

    Comedian Rachel Dratch (Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock) never wanted to be seen as just another “woo-woo” Hollywood actress. She prefers to hold the idea of magick lightly, treating it with her characteristic curiosity and humor. Even so, when she visited a channeler whose uncanny predictions came true, Rachel started to pay more attention to signs, as well as what the woo can tell us about being human. Now, Rachel hosts a podcast fittingly called “Woo-Woo With Rachel Dratch.” You can hear Rebecca’s appearance on “Woo-Woo” here and actor Jeff Hiller (and his impression of Rebecca) here. This independent show is a delight to make, and it also takes a lot of time and care. If you’d like to support our work with a gift of $33, click here. If you would like to reach our team, you can write to us at voicesintheriver@gmail.com. Rebecca helps women remember who they are and become leaders of their own destiny. If you’d like to work with Rebecca, her website is rebeccaauman.com. Voices in the River was created and produced by Theo Balcomb. Our story editor is Sara McCrea.

    Exploring the Source with Claire McMillan

    Throughout the political tumult of the mid 20th century, painters Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo made deeply spiritual, surreal, and mythic art, drawing from a dream world to envision a distinctly feminine form of power. Their stories inspired our guest Claire McMillan to write “Alchemy of a Blackbird,” a novel that follows the geographical and spiritual journeys that led Carrington and Varo’s lives to intertwine.
