We are Hannah and Mel, welcome to the podcast Shedding Starlight: A Guide to the Kingdom Hearts Mythos. If you’ve ever played the Kingdom Hearts games and wanted to dive deeper into the story, this podcast is for you! Shedding Starlight lays out all of the worldbuilding, hidden concepts, and character motivations that the games hid between the lines.

A definite contender for ‘favourite time of the year’ these light-filled days of late spring and early summer are easy to love. The novelty of sustained sunshine and warmer days gladden the hearts. The countryside is at its best and cities start to go all Mediterranean, living life outside. Even the most humdrum garden looks pretty in May. 

And we’re as busy as the birds feeding chicks and bees gathering nectar – planting flowers, tending our veg patch and exploring our neighbourhood. It’s the end of the hungry gap with the first harvests so we enjoy eating outdoors and go on our first picnic of the year.  We’re learning more about folklore and festivals, listening to birdsong and making the most of long weekends. Join us to dabble in something new and take a spontaneous day trip. Our motto for the season: ‘Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time’. 

There are six episodes in Season 9, released weekly from May Day and supported by Titanic Belfast
