Episodes

  1. Amateur Scholarship with CB Robertson of Caffeine & Philosophy

    A refreshing interview with the practical and potent Chris of Caffeine & Philosophy, a modern Hellenic philosophically-grounded pagan with a lot to offer in terms of answering the individual call to scholarship with or without academic validation, credentials or prestige. Slight technical...

  2. Pagan Imperial Vitalism with Sunnatru

    Initially conducted by and shared by Bran of Sunnatru on his Youtube channel, I'm sharing our conversation here with his blessing-- paganism, fitness culture, and the shifting social tides as the West seeks a new path forward.

  3. Awen & Amor Fati: A Druidic Dialogue with Dr. Ian Edwards, PhD

    I’m honored to share this profound dialogue with depth psychologist, practitioner, academic, lifter and much more-- including author of today’s subject (among other works), “A Druid in Psychologist’s Clothing.” This conversation mainly stems from a discussion of that remarkable biography of...

  4. "Content," Consumerism & Authenticity

    You know the deal. Find the small businesses I shouted out on this episode here: The Bone Monger on Etsy & Cowboy Sol on IG primaldruidry.com/primaldruidry everywhere

  5. The Gods are a Moving Target: Druidry with Susan

    This is a conversation between two friends walking overlapping paths of present-day druidry. Both of us having been formally involved in Ar nDraioch Fein for a similar amount of time, Susan is the official Southwest regional druid in Ar nDraioch Fein & scribe of Raven’s Cry Grove, ADF— and on…

  6. Piercing, Pain & Mysticism feat. Piercer Nathan Peterson

    On today’s episode, I had a perhaps leviathan-length conversation with infamous piercer Nathan Peterson of Nathan’s Tattoos & Piercings! Our conversation started with the theme of the initiatic quality of pain especially as it relates to body modification, and branches out into tangents on our...

  7. Road Trip Rant #1

    Days into my extended Journey to 8 Winds road trip including the PNW, I exhaustedly rant at you from the interstate about my upcoming talk, how much I hate GRWM videos & more. The video I mentioned is: https://youtu.be/az8jUZj3Rw8?si=izUOtC8-wwmLP1-r

  8. Carnivore Clownery & Rethinking Platforms

    Recorded into my phone after a late-night workout

  9. Murtagh AnDoile: Grandfather of Celtic Recon

    In today’s episode of Occulture Wars, I go on an hour-long deeply fascinating tangent with Murtagh, who’s been called “Grandfather of Celtic Reconstruction,” an “American shaman,” a priest of the Morrigan— and I’m happy to call him my friend. In this conversation, we speak about some of Murtagh’s...

  10. Druidic Devotion: Ian Corrigan on Occulture Wars

    Buy Sacred Fire, Holy Well on Amazon and Ian's other books here on Lulu-- Read Ian's essays here on Patheos and his blog, Into the Mound. Read more about Tredara here. Join my Patreon in supporting the heresy at any level.

  11. Whoopi, Weed & More

    Occulture Wars is back and fully loaded with not only audio but video (available on Youtube and my Patreon), the better to lay into Whoopi Goldberg's Wokified revisionist history (recorded before her suspension), theorize on the result of Amazon's support for the recent push for federally…

  12. Thanksgiving Reflections

    Foiled by Edison, I was unable to post this on Thanksgiving proper-- so instead of a proper holiday episode, let it serve as a reflection and perhaps optimistic warning for holiday dinners and events to come. For those who do not wish to hear discussion of truly evil individuals in the academic...

  13. Offline Paganism with John Beckett

    On this episode, I am honored to speak with John Beckett-- an acclaimed author, blogger, educator and fellow druid. I love this conversation for its frankness-- we eschewed all pretense to have a blunt discussion on avoiding delusion & ego-stroking, the unglamorous reality of pagan priesthood and...

  14. No Nuance November Part 1

    Consummating the first episode under Occulture Wars, this lighthearted episode covers Marilyn Manson going the Milo route with Ye and Biebz, The Handmaid's Tale as political fetish fantasy for bored women, my two cents on a general code of conduct while posting on social media (particularly…

  15. Sermon #10: Cultural Resimpstance

    While I refer to this as an "aesthetics" episode on the show, that's not quite it. It's also not really about simps, I just have a horrible sense of humor. While I touch on aesthetic-related topics like the "depression aesthetic" (think tumblr) going too far, the fact that Timothee Chalamet…

  16. Sermon #9: Fetishizing Femininity//Dignity vs Degradation

    Inspired by my own short-lived foray into online dating sites and the cataclysmic realization of how bad it actually is out here, I discuss the results of hardcore fetish practices and concepts being normalized into not just "normie" dating and hookups-- but the fetishization of natural human...

  17. Occulture Wars: Transgression with Da'at Darling

    On this episode, I chat with Da'at Darling/Georgina Rose about various issues related to the occult, witchcraft and pagan related subcultures-- specifically, the current climate of seeking permission and validation in practices that are meant to be transgressive, heretical and expressly outside…

  18. Sermon #8: Tolkien isn’t Woke, Stop Trying

    Sermon #8, in which Lilith has strep throat and still has the energy to sermonize on the issues with trying to “wokeify” and “queerify” Tolkien. Make yourself some pumpkin spice tea and buckle up.

  19. Sermon #7: Kink & Obsession

    An unusually personal state of the union address on the role of kink in my life, why I’m stepping away from associating with it too much online, and the value of living organically and offline… which will lead into next podcast’s focus on ego traps. Enjoy!

  20. Sermon #6: Consumerism & the Craft

    A chaotic solo sermon on what I see as current priorities in the Craft- consumerism, social media and identity politics.

  21. Sermon #5: Make Witchcraft Uncool Again

    Let them say everything is appropriation. Let them say everything is colonialism. Let them fearmonger and scare people away from the Craft. Make witchcraft uncool again.

  22. Iron Alchemy: the Spirituality of Strength with BikerVVitch

    Pat aka BikerVVitch and I had a blunt conversation where we discuss the cultivation of physical strength as a magickal/spiritual act, where we discuss exercise both as meditation and as a devotional act, as well as the social factors surrounding the perception of strength training/exercise in not...

  23. Sermon #4: Red Flags for Predatory Mentors

    The internet & subcultures are replete with “I’m your witchy dad,” “I’m your goth uncle,” “I’m your (unearned familial title geared towards emotionally vulnerable young person here)”— and while we desperately need more adults willing to step up for the younger generations, when much older adults...

  24. Volcanic Heathenry: Myth & Modernity with Dr. Mathias Nordvig

    This week I spoke with an actual expert in the field of Nordic mythology and history, Dr. Mathias Nordvig. Both a professor and an actual heathen, I’ve always admired Mathias’ perspective and felt he would be perfect to speak with on Outlaw Preaches. In the first half of the episode we discuss…

  25. Sermon #3: Normalizing Kink?

    Should we normalize kink? The conversation floats around online, usually from one side or the other— from the kinksters who want everyone else to “catch up,” to the anti-kinksters who want to shut it all down. Yet again, this is a conversation that needs some nuance— so that’s where I come in. We...

  26. Sermon #2: Burned Ship

    In a world where the adult industry is being touted as empowering not just to grown adults, but to minors on social media-- I, a professional domme of three plus years, have some stark raving honesty about the reality of this industry that many people (on all sides) either won't expect or won't...

  27. Sermon #1: Adulthood vs Adult-ING

    Outlaw Priestess brings her first sermon with a little preaching, a little storytime, and a lot of questions all about a concept we've all heard about... but not quite like this. Feel free to blast this episode at top volume while driving through the mountains, boating down a creek or annoying…
