Moon Dog Rising

We trained the wolf to be our companion, we replaced him to make way for a new best friend and now we fight him through persecution towards extinction or support him with rewilding absolution.

So, who’s in control and who owns who? Where is the wild and where is the free? Who has been tamed and who owes who? And who will be free howling when the Full Wolf Moon is rising?

In this first episode Michael tells the full moon story inspired by his sleepover with the Wolf moon of January 2021.

About the Podcast

Sleeping with the Moon

What does a full moon mean to you? Have you ever slept out under one and watched it rise?

Storyteller Michael Loader has done just that. During the year of 2021, he spent one night a month sleeping out in a bivvi bag under the full moon and each experience inspired him to create a unique piece of writing.

On each full moon during 2022, we will release that story.
