The Hexperts

In the continuing exploration of Aleister Crowley's life, we see him pursing his passions: poetry, mountains, being just a little more magical than the other magicians, and sticking his nose in other people's love life even it means getting married himself. Later, Brett learns what singers are Scottish, what songs are really movies, and what actors aren't athletes just because they have the worst Fast in their name. Hosted on Acast.

This week we dissect the stories of Circe, Medea, and the other magic-wielders of Ancient Greece that helped establish our ideas of witches today, aka Helios's very messy family. Later, Brett learns about the key elements of quintessential mid-00s teen drama Skins, namely that it's not the one with the gay redhead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In our continuing exploration of Crowley's life, our boy finds love with a man with fantastic legs, attaches himself to the worst possible father figures, and causes a schism in a sacred spiritual order like only an ex-Evangelical can. Later, Brett describes an episode of Below Deck in a way that is absolutely legally distinct from a certain James Cameron movie. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, we explore the early days of the forefather of the Occult, from being the sickly son of fanatically religious train millionaires, to his young adulthood as a mountaineering misanthrope. Later, we hear from one of the most important authors of this generation, Tyra Banks. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We begin our dive into the forefather of modern magic and the 'most wicked man in the world' with a look into Thelema, a religion that says everyone is a star, literally, and that martinis are bad. Later, hi, it's Nikki Blonsky from the movie Hairspray. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
