Chad is a gracious host and spins a web of connection and conversation that enchants, uplifts, and leads listeners to good questions. This is a must-listen for any curious karcists and anyone with a pull towards Fairy or experiences of Strangeness.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bigfoot is My Witchfather with Robyn Valentine
Q: What has becoming a parent affected that practice for you in terms of prioritization and what type of magic is important now?
Parenthood shifted priorities toward practical, protective magic and redefined how and when I engage in rituals, emphasizing efficiency and energy management while maintaining depth, intimacy, and responsible practice within a busy family life.
Bigfoot is My Witchfather with Robyn Valentine
Q: So what was an experience or maybe a teacher or writer you encountered that took you from that place of like, this is a fun thing I do as a hobby to like, this is my thing, I'm actually going to start writing books, I'm going to start a podcast, this is my life. What was that step like for you?
It happened over several years, driven by life changes, the search for community, and a focused deep dive into singular aspects of witchcraft like oils, powders, planetary hours, and tarot. Those intensifications slowly formed a cohesive path into writing and podcasting, turning a hobby into a sustained vocation.
Raising the Dead with Corinne Boyer
Q: What makes your approach to trance work different from other teachings, and why do you favor bone tapping?
Corinne shares that bone tapping provides a stark, attention-grabbing rhythm that keeps participants present, arguing that it reduces pretense and makes trance accessible without elaborate setups, while still yielding meaningful results.
Raising the Dead with Corinne Boyer
Q: What drives your fascination with the devil and the witch's ointment, and how do you present these topics responsibly?
She describes the devil as an aggregate spirit with multiple forms and attributes, stressing nuanced understanding, historical context, and avoiding entheogen-centric framing, to honor the lived experiences of past practitioners.
Raising the Dead with Corinne Boyer
Q: How did you get involved with the publishing world and end up working with Troy Books?
Corinne explains she found opportunities through instructor networks and essays, pitched a sample chapter, and secured a two-book deal that grew into a trilogy, driven by her desire to present underexplored trees of folklore.
