UPDATE!!! The Hitman, (Cody) Got the software reloaded in the studio, and redid some of the mics and a few other do dads, so when we come back on the air after the new year we will be better than ever, New shows new guests. I want to thank everyone who listens to Raven Radio and made us a success over the last 2 years. We’ve had our ups and downs, but it is been a hell of a ride and I for one am looking to forward to our next year. I owe a T shirt or 3 and I’ll get them out as soon as I can.
But again thank you each and everyone of our listeners for your loyal support to Raven Radio!
Hail the Folk! Hail the Gods and Goddesses of the Folk!

This week we are talking about Yule,History , importance of gifting, Josh Heath and if we are lucky the Lovely Kitty English(HINT HINT HINT!!!) will join him as talk about the Open Halls project, and the importance of making sure our Warriors get a care package from the world. To top it all off, I hope to get some more heathen crafters, business folk heathen handy folks to show off there wares and for folks to get ideas for those care packages, or that special Heathen on your gift list. This week on Raven Radio. www.ravenradio.info Sunday 8 am mountain 11 eastern 4 gmt.

IMPORTANT ANNOUCEMENT: When we first set up this project, we created the registration page with the option of opting in our ‘pool’ of care package providers. When a service member requested/took up the offer of a care package, we would randomly select about three of the names on our opt-in list and put the two parties in contact with each other so they could exchange addresses and say what they’d like in their care packages (as different posts have different things available and there might have been something the service member needed but couldn’t get hold of so). However the last few times we’ve contacted people for care packages, we’ve hardly been getting any answers back. We understand that maybe our mails are going to spam boxes, so please check that we aren’t in your spam boxes. However we also understand that times have changed and that the economy is tough on everyone, so while hearts and minds might be in the right place, wallets might not be able to stretch. So we’re going to do a ‘reset’ on the care package option. Everyone who has registered and opted to be in the care package ‘pool’ will no longer be. If you would like to remain in the pool of care package providers, please email us at Heathenopenhalls@gmail.com and we’ll add you back!

Evening folks. This week it is Offerings. The Who, What and Why. Do we make them more complicated than they need to be or are we doing enough?

So call in, yup this is a participation show and Jake has had it to easy with the Skype computer. Call in and share your kindred, your state or your country take and the way YOU do your offerings.

Several sites that I host were hit by a WordPress zero-day exploit. I believe we have cleaned the infection and I have taken further measures to try and prevent it in the future. I am trying to get a Google review going so we can be removed from the bad list.

To reiterate, you are safe. There is no infection/malware hosted at Raven Radio and in fact there never was. They simply used a redirect to grab 404 traffic to a bogus site in Russia. Run your virus scanners, but I don’t think anyone was ever actually in any danger.

Vetrnætr,Winterfylleþ Start of the Hunt. For me personally the start of my favorite time of the year, the light is changing, the winds are sharper, the air brisk and ice is on the windshield. Odin gathers his fallen, and the Hunt is on roaring across the skies!
