E180: The Cassandra Effect and the Problem with Ignoring Magic

from Southern Fried Witch Hosted by Seba O'Kiley

Y'all know that I really admire John Beckett, aka the author of Under the Ancient Oaks on Patheos. Often, something he muses upon fires up something in my own brain and I have to speak to it. His latest article "Sigil Magic: Did The Spell Work?" really hit for me. Of course, I took this a different direction (sorry, John, you know my wandering), but the question kept creeping up in my mind: how do we know if it could have? Join me on the porch, Batchildren, to think through the other side of this coin. Love y'all like chicken, Seba To support this podcast, keep it on the air, and get access to extra content, go to: https://www.patreon.com/southernfriedwitch
