Hello magical friends, and welcome to episode 76 of WZRD Radio. I’m your hostwitch Bess, and I am stuck on this intro, so let’s go with a Puffs welcome: hi!
There’s a lot of fun stuff going on this month, so let’s not waste another minute!
Here’s Dots & Lines and “Pretty Good At Quidditch.”

That was “Pretty Good At Quidditch” by Dots & Lines [lyrics], “Dear Tom” from Ginny and the Weasleys [lyrics], and The Lovegoods with “Invincible” [lyrics].
This month’s wandoscope is for magical friends who carry wands of swamp mayhaw. This fascinating wood is tied to things like survival, joy, and community.
This is a month of extremes, mayhew wand. You’ve been working hard at balance and moderation, so it might be scary to do something at one end or the other. Avoid people at home for a weekend. Get that tattoo. Splurge a little. As they say; everything in moderation, including moderation. Give yourself a little treat, whatever that looks like for you. There’s a whole half of the year left and you’re going to make so much progress during it! So take some time for yourself.
Our next music break begins with “The Very Secret Diary” by Split Seven Ways.

That was Split Seven Ways and “The Very Secret Diary” [lyrics], “Such a Shame” by How Airplanes Fly [lyrics], and “Red Hair” from The Weasel King [lyrics].
