Witch, Yes!

Note: Of course, our episode about chaos had some chaos in the edit: audio issues, export problems, and some other moments of pandemonium. But the chaos has been tamed, the audio restored, and this episode is being uploaded again. Apologies for the disruption, but we are now all set. Thanks, babes!

This week, Alicia and Terra are cracking open the occult's most chaotic, most postmodern, most "actually kind of makes sense when you think about it" tradition: Chaos Magic. From Austin Osman Spare, a man who was literally named Spare, to Peter J. Carroll writing manifestos in a London occult zine, to the internet turning sigils into memes and memes into sigils... the chaos was always the point.

We're talking belief as a tool, gnosis as a practice, Supernatural (yes, that one), the difference between Chaos Magic and eclectic witchcraft, and why a chaos magician might pray to an ancient god on Monday and a fictional character on Wednesday and feel completely fine about it.

Oh, and Alicia is going to use it to get a new car. We'll keep you posted.

Hosted by Alicia Herder and Terra Keck.

You thought you knew the game. You thought you were the one pulling the strings. But somewhere between the punchline and the plot twist, the rug got pulled, and you're not sure if you're laughing or cursed.

This week on Witch, Yes!, Alicia and Terra are diving into the Trickster. The shapeshifter. The chaos agent. The one who breaks the rules so hard the universe has to rewrite them. From Coyote and Loki to Anansi and Hermes, we're unpacking why every culture across time has needed a figure who lies, cheats, steals, and somehow still ends up being the hero of the story. Are Tricksters forces of evil, or are they the only ones telling the truth? And more importantly... have you been the Trickster this whole time?

Light a candle. Mind the fine print. And don't make any deals you can't afford to lose. 🃏🔮✨

Friday the 13th is BACK. And not just once this year, baby witches, but THREE TIMES. Yes, 2026 is absolutely unhinged and we should all be afraid.

This week, Alicia and Terra are cracking open the folklore, the fear, and the full chaotic history of the most infamous date on the Gregorian Calendar. We're talking Norse mythology and the death of Baldr (yes, Loki is involved, obviously). We're talking the Last Supper, triskaidekaphobia, and why the number 13 has been considered cursed since at least the 1400s. We're talking real Friday the 13th disasters, including the 1972 Andes plane crash and the 2012 Costa Concordia shipwreck, because apparently this date has notes.

And then we zoom out: Tuesday the 13th, the Ides of March, Italy's fear of the number 17, and the 1980 slasher film that turned a spooky superstition into a full cultural institution.

Is Friday the 13th genuinely cursed? A Christian holdover? A Norse myth remix? A media invention?

It's all of the above, and we couldn't be more delighted.

Three Fridays the 13th in one year. Stay vigilant.

Season 8 - Burn Book Entry January 2026

Name: Agnes

Sign: Virgo

Craft: Folk magic, curse-adjacent

Notes: Stole my familiar. Claims she “doesn’t hex anymore", but that’s a lie. Bad vibes. Would not circle cast with again.

—

This week on Witch, Yes!, we are slowly, intentionally, and with full eye contact, cracking open the collective burn book of history to discuss witchy beefs. The rivalries. The feuds. The cheek, the nerve, the audacity, the gall, and the gumption!

From pamphlet wars and public accusations to coven fallouts and spiritual power struggles, we’re serving a deep dive into the drama and asking the real question: when magic meets mess, who’s getting the bad edit?

Consider this episode a loving reminder that enlightenment doesn’t stop you from throwing shade, and history? Oh, history always remembers the read.

Light a candle. Ward your circle. And remember: some names end up in the Book of Shadows… others end up in the burn book. 🔮📓🔥And that's the tea henny!
