You might *think* you know what you’re in for a show on Atlantis but it’s muchmuchmuch stranger than you think. We go through the history of the myth of Atlantis and on the way we meet: space barbie, Plato, underground mutants beaming negativity at us, lemurs, organic farming, a shocking amount of racism, “Inherit the Wind”, Francis Bacon, UFOs, blobby proto-humans from Venus, and if you can even believe it… more high weirdness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A forgotten path of enlightenment. A young genius assassinated in his prime for bringing Gnosis to the world. The recovery of a suppressed perennial wisdom that saves. The mysteries of the angels. Kabbalistic secrets unveiled for all. The hidden gnosis and history of a figure who changed the world and whose impact is still felt today. Giovanni Pico della Mirandol AKA Pico is a Renaissance philosopher and one of the architects of the modern age and friend of the show (and one of the greats in occult and mystical podcasting) Greg Kaminsky is here to tell us about his new book on Pico, called “Celestial Intelligences.” Tune in and discover for yourself how Pico’s thought and insight is a valid path of spirituality for even now!

Philosopher, poet, and authour Nina Power comes on the show for a wide ranging conversation about paganism, re-enchantment, esoteric perennialism, the struggle between positive Gnosticism and Negative Gnosticism, Romanticism, and oh…so much more! This is part of our ongoing bonus “Black Iron Prison” series where we speak to thinkers outside of the Gnostic world about Gnostic themes in their work and in art, society, and any where else we can find them.

Dr. David Goodin comes on the show to answer some softball questions from us like, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” “Why is there suffering and evil at all?” “What up with God and the Devil?” “How should we address suffering?”. Fortunately, he’s recently published a new book, “Confronting Evil: Theodicy in the Eastern Patristic Tradition” which addresses these and many other issues. And while his perspective is from the Eastern Orthodox tradition we know that no matter what your path or spiritual leanings you’re going to dig this ep.

Charles Robert Stansfeld Jones (1886–1950), aka Frater Achad, was a Vancouver based mystic, occultist, and spiritual seeker who was involved with, and tried to synthesize, Thelema, Roman Catholicism, Eastern religion, and Qabalah. Celebrated by some as a messianic figure, scorned by others as a kind of Anti-Christ, he’s a fascinating figure and we dive into his life, thought, and continued influence with returning guest, Nic Laccetti.
