Episode 33 - Christopher Orapello & Tara Love-Maguire Talking Traditional Witchcraft, The Six-Fold Path, Ghosts and Down At The Crossroads

Welcome to Weird Web Radio! This episode features Christopher Orapello & Tara Love-Maguire from the podcast Down At The Crossroads, and also the authors of Besom, Stang & Sword: A Guide to Traditional Witchcraft, The Six-Fold Path & The Hidden Landscape. PLEASE forgive my audio. Just mine. Chris and Tara sound fine. Something went wonky on my side, and I sound like shit. I worked very hard on all of this to preserve the amazing conversation. So I apologize for my mechanical froggy weird sound on this one.  Also, please note that this show is dedicated to the memory of Sarah Elizabeth Lyter (1985 - 2018). I did not know her. She's important to Chris and Tara. So important they dedicated their book to her memory, and I wanted to honor her and them by doing the same with the show. It is said one can enjoy a Happy Meal in her honor, and she would be quite happy to know it. Hail the fallen! Long may your memory live, and your Ancestors welcome you home! Chris and Tara kindly provided their super cool bios for your reading pleasure: Christopher Orapello is an artist, witch, and animist with a background in western occultism, ceremonial magick, and Freemasonry and has been on his journey for over 25 years. He co-hosts the podcast Down at the Crossroads with his partner, Tara-Love Maguire, and is a signature artist with Sacred Source (a leading producer and distributor of ancient deity images in North America). After a growing desire for a more locally-based form of witchcraft, he and Tara founded Blacktree coven in 2014, where they set out to forge a modern approach to Traditional Witchcraft for a new era of praxis. His first book- Besom, Stang, and Sword- co-written with Tara, is available now wherever books are sold from Red Wheel/Weiser Books. Tara-Love Maguire has been a practicing witch for over 30 years, on a path which has been crookedly influenced by Isobel Gowdie, Marie Laveau, and William S. Burroughs. Growing up as a weird kid in and around the New Jersey Pine Barrens, she found witchcraft within the tales and shadows that dwell there. She co-hosts the podcast, Down at the Crossroads, with her sweetheart, Christopher Orapello, and together, they founded Blacktree Coven- a traditional witchcraft coven which exists in the heart of southern New Jersey. Her first book- Besom, Stang, and Sword- co-written with Chris, is available now wherever books are sold from Red Wheel/Weiser Books. This one takes a deep dive into magic, witchcraft, sacred cows, ghosts, and more! Enjoy the show! Stay Weird, my friends! Photo Credit goes to Jenn Lane. Real quick!

Episode 29 - Heimlich A Laguz Talking Chaos Magic, Heathenry, Runes and Spirits

Welcome to Weird Web Radio! I'm your host, Lonnie Scott. This episode features Heimlich A. Laguz. He and are both co-authors of the Elhaz Ablaze: Compendium of Chaos Heathenry anthology. In fact, Heimlich is the one who created the whole idea of Chaos Heathenry. It was a life saving ideology for me when I found it many years ago. Read my essay in the book and you'll understand more of why I say that. Heimlich and I cover a wide range of topics that include magic, spirits, runes, influences, possession, Odin, and more! You'll find something you love in Elhaz Ablaze's mastermind. You may even find something you hate, and that's okay with Heimlich too. Heimlich A. Laguz has been practicing magic – runic, chaos, and otherwise – since 1996, and has described itself as a Heathen since 1999. An INFJ personality, Laguz is motivated by an endless thirst for growth and mystery, typically with the intention of being able to thereby also support the growth and healing of others. Laguz’s academic and career foci lie in arts philosophical, psychological, and therapeutic. Laguz also has a passionate interest in progressive politics and has been a dedicated advocate for a range of social justice causes. Laguz loves to make music, meditates daily, and venerates various deities with vigorous devotion. As the image suggests, Laguz readily patrols the limits of its comfort zone. Real quick!

Welcome to Weird Web Radio!  I'm your host, Lonnie Scott. This episode features Cyndi Brannen. Cyndi came to my attention when I went exploring my own relationship with Hekate even deeper. That led me to Cyndi's Facebook group and blog. She's an amazing human being down excellent work.

Episode 27 - Halloween Special Episode

Happy Halloween! Blessed Samhain & Good Winternights! Welcome to Weird Web Radio, I'm Lonnie Scott, and this is the very special episode for Halloween! I started thinking about what I could give to all of you as a way to say thanks for being a fan. It occurred to me that it's a time for the Dead AND for Trick or Treating. So, you get a treat! I start all my bonus audio sessions for Patreon members by asking my guests about what famous person's grave they would most like to visit, why they chose that person, and occasionally what they might do entering a cemetery and grave. You know, the really good Necromancy kind of stuff! I went through the archives and randomly chose those answers from former guests. I put it all together here for you to enjoy! The last guest on here is sharing a really fun story too! The guest list in order of their appearance on this episode: Aidan Wachter Ansley SC The Spirit Chick Elizabeth Saint Ivo Dominguez Lothar Tuppan Mat Auryn Khi Armand Morgan Daimler Morpheus Ravenna Amanda Yates Garcia Greg and Dana Newkirk Tim Weisburg Marcus Katz Jason Miller Heather Greene   This was a lot of fun revisiting these conversations! There is so much more that goes beyond these questions on the bonus audio sessions! All you have to do is join the membership for $5 a month!   Is this show worth a dollar to you?

Episode 26 - Heather Greene Talking Witchcraft, Witches In Film, and Pagan Journalism

Welcome to Weird Web Radio! I'm your host, Lonnie Scott! This episode features Heather Greene. You may know her as the Publisher of the Wild Hunt Blog. Any and all Pagans, Heathens, and Polytheists should check it out for news that really does matter to them. I know I do. The Wild Hunt always needs funding. It's important to help when and where you can. Please consider heading over there to give a coin or three. I want to make a note about The Wild Hunt here. I'm very aware of recent controversy. I'm also aware of steps Heather has taken to address the problem. We do not dig into it here. My show is about exploring the mindset, tools, and techniques that can help you grow into your paranormal and occult journey. I share my own along the way, and I interview my guests to know what makes them so amazing. Heather is also the author of Bell, Book, and Camera. This information packed trip down memory lane of films that are tied to the Witch and women in our culture. Get this book! It's a section of history that should not be overlooked.  I made a point to address the audio problems on my side. I don't know what it was or what caused it. I did all I could to clean it up. Investigation into the problem is under way. I apologize for my own audio not being the best possible. I also addressed our conversation about Pagan Fitness in the show. We hoped to inspire people to just get active in some way. Move your body. Sweat a little. It matters. We failed to mention that we support you no matter what you're physical abilities may or may not be. Your body is yours. Do all you can to use it wisely, and never let anyone make you feel less than the amazing consciousness you are regardless of your abilities. Do what you can, when you can, where you can. That's all we really are urging anyone to do. You can find Heather's book on Amazon and other fine booksellers. You can also find more about Heather on her website https://www.heathergreene.net/ Would you like to hear Heather and I talk about the dead, Paris, Paganism in France, Tarot, Jim Morrison, The afterlife, and more?
