Holy smokes, folks! It's been 8 years since I performed a ritual, 4 years since I launched This Podcast is a Ritual, and less than a week since I landed on the cover of Louisville's alternative newspaper, LEO Weekly. To commemorate the occasion(s), we've got a very special TWO PART podcast celebration. Part One is an interview with Carolyn Brown, who wrote the LEO Weekly article, on what it was like trying to capture this strange story about a man who keeps telling everyone he's a wizard... Part Two is going down this evening when I perform a LIVE RITUAL honoring this historic moment, which will be uploaded as soon as my lovely editor gets a chance to make it sound good for ya!
