  • Treasure trove

    Such a great podcast. It takes me forever to get through an episode because I keep pausing to look up all the interesting terms that they use and then I go down various rabbit holes I would have never found otherwise.

    I’ve listened to the podcast for ages. The energy is always great. Today I listened to the first episode for the first time and realised that this was recorded on a very important day for me also - the last day of a long work journey. It is a podcast of optimism and hope for the future.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How to Speak with the Dead (w/ Kadmus)
Q: So Tiresias existed, what was it like to contact him to learn about ancient Greek religion and magical practice?
The process involved an initial challenge due to the lack of a body or grave, using a necromantic assistant to guide the contact, and then building a relationship that allowed communication to flow from a shrine or workplace as well as a grave.
How to Live in the Face of Death (w/ Tom Banger)
Q: What does 'gliomancy' mean and how does it connect to your story?
'Gliomancy' is a made-up term Tom created to represent his journey of taking ownership of his brain cancer diagnosis. He discusses it as a way of managing bad news creatively and turning a personal struggle into a narrative.
How to Live in the Face of Death (w/ Tom Banger)
Q: Can you tell me a little bit more about your history and how you got involved with these weird worlds of magic, the occult, and punk fucking rock?
Tom discusses feeling like an outsider, challenges with childhood illness, and his eventual embrace of punk rock and occultism as pivotal aspects of his identity.
The Quest of Mystery (w/ Tom10)
Q: So when did this project start, and how has it evolved as you've been putting these gnomes up around town?
It's evolved out of general street art and the necessity of a different approach due to legal reasons.
The Quest of Mystery (w/ Tom10)
Q: How would you describe yourself? What is it that you are or do?
I'm a construct pretending to be a street artist.
