Enjoy a Patreon preview of the fourth episode of The Imbas Transmissions. This time, we chat about initiation as a translator of the ineffable, the perennial influence of Austin Osman Spare well beyond chaos magic, and ergodic literature as Imbas transmission.

Further evidence of just how small a world it is: nestled here in my tiny rural valley, amongst the deer, the evergreen forests, and the bucolic mountain streams, is not just one Occult Podcaster, but two. Today I'm thrilled to sit down with that other Occult Podcaster in my yard with some tea, and share our chat with you. Robyn Valentine is a writer, teacher, "witchfluencer" (whether she likes it or not), and one of the hosts of the delightful Coffee & Cauldrons podcast. We talk about the moment witchcraft went from being a hobby to a practice for her, the trials and tribulations of giving tarot readings for a living, the role of the Witch in the dying process, and we discuss future plans to summon Bigfoot.

I'm thrilled to share my recent chat with Malachas Ivernus. Malachas is an excellent Irish Poet, writer of magical fiction, and frequenter (if not an orphan) of the Otherworld. We explore the creativity inherent to operative magic, the spiritual gauntlet of initiation, and the dance of divine inspiration. If you haven't, you must check out Malachas' wonderful work over on Substack under: The Hollow Behind the Hearthstone.

This episode is a little different in all the best kinds of ways. I'm so happy to welcome back the delightful Joshua Cutchin to the show to chat about his fantastic new book, The Inverted Path. We go deep into the bizarre pan-paranormal phenomena we more colloquially call being "pixie-led," and its surprising manifestations from faerie folklore, to cryptid encounters, and UAP experiences. I also couldn't resist bringing back a previous guest, Celeste Mott, to join me for the Patreon portion of the chat, since I know Josh's work on so-called "fictional incursions" has been living rent-free in her head for a while now. To hear the full bonus portion of that conversation, you can join our Radical Elphame Patreon or Celeste's The Moth-Ur House Patreon.

Enjoy a Patreon preview of the second episode of The Imbas Transmissions. This time, we chat about the uncanny valley inherent to animistic encounter,  the witch as an agent of right-relation, and working with dead writers and magicians à la the frameworks described in the works of Dr. Alexander Cummins and the book Learning from Legendary Practitioners by Kadmus.
