  • Half the podcast is great for the most part. That would be the half that's written several books. The other half tells people who can and can't be witches based on their landlord's rental agreement. Would be a better podcast with just the one host, that second one kills it.

They discuss everything from hexing to sigils to resource books to sabbaths to culture to identity and sex. They are not afr... more

  • This is the best witchcraft Podcast out there

    I found this podcast a year ago and am about to finish the last episode and be completely caught up. I could not recommend this podcast enough. Whether you are just beginning your path in witchcraft or have been a practitioner for years you will learn something from this podcast. If I could give this a 10/5 star rating I would.
