Occult 101 with Raymond Wiley

In this weeks episode we go deep into the roots of the Western Esoteric Tradition with our returning guest Raymond Wiley. Raymond is the former host of the amazing Out There Radio, and has recently graduated University with a BA in History where he specialised in the scholarly study of the Western Occultism. Raymond has a wealth of knowledge in the area we are discussing today, and presents it in his usual fun and highly interesting way.

There is no me and Paul banter this week due to me having an infected tooth, which has made me not only look...but sound like The Godfather! We will be back, I hope, as normal next week with another great guest. Enjoy the show.

Music this week comes from the amazing Secret Chiefs 3 in the shape of a cover of John Carpenters 'Halloween' score. It is a live recording, and i'm unsure as to it's source, but it's great!

Magick, Crowley and The Goetia w/ Lon Milo Duquette

Our guest this week, Lon Milo DuQuette, has authored numerous magical texts including The Magick of Aleister Crowley, Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot, and Gods of the New Millennium, but without question his most popular work is the story of his own life as a practicing ceremonial magician, My Life with the Spirits.

My Life with the Spirits has been optioned for a feature film and is a required text for classes at DePaul University, Chicago. He is often called upon to appear on radio and television to comment authoritatively on matters pertaining to the Western Mystery traditions and matters of the occult. He travels extensively worldwide and speaks on a broad range of esoteric topics including Qabalah and the Tarot. He is on the faculty of the OMEGA INSTITUTE in Rhinebeck, New York where he teaches ‘The Western Magical Tradition.’
