Now, in episode number 229, a brilliant conversation with author and teacher Alan Chapman of Magia and The Baptist’s Head, where we delve into magical lineage, Aleister Crowley, gnosis, and magic as a practice to attain gnosis. This was a very long-awaited meeting, and the preparation was completely worthwhile. It is no accident that while this was recorded during the autumn of 2024, it’s being released right before the Winter Solstice.

For years I’ve been wanting to do an interview of this nature, where we discuss magic as the path towards, and in the service of, spiritual enlightenment. While I often love to focus on the intersection of these phenomena, it wasn’t until this interview that I was actually able to satisfy my yearning to know if a Western magical path could lead where I thought it was meant to by speaking with someone who claimed to have accomplished it. You can find Alan Chapman online at https://barbarouswords.com/

Joining us are the inimitable Frater O and Kid Cooper-Levy.
