  • Episode 18: Inciting A Reincarnated Riot

  • Episode 15: Inciting An Academic Riot
    Episode 15 of Inciting A Riot: the Podcast. This is my apology to you listeners who have had to listen to recent shows that merely showcased my opinion and not any new or challenging research. In that light I'm presenting two research articles that I've written for both our sociology segment and our spirituality segment. Make sure to keep your thinking caps securely fastened, because we're hitting the ground running.
    News: Supreme Court ruling on big business' ability to spend unlimited amounts of money on political campaigns and the California Supreme Court case that may define paganism as a 'second-tier' religion in America.
    Word of the Day: collude
    Sociology: Part 1 of 5 - Stating the problem of childhood sexuality and intolerance as it relates to education by parents and the school system.
    Spirituality: The Cult of Mary and the evolution of Mary as the Goddess. (I know you'll love this one.)
    Thanks go out to Chris Orapello of the Infinite and the Beyond for using my promo in a recent show. Vote for all your favorite podcasts at Podcast Alley, subscribe through iTunes, and make sure to follow the blog! Links below.

  • Episode 14: Inciting A Gay Riot
    Episode 14 of Inciting A Riot: the Podcast. Oh yes, I'm talking about the topic of being a gay pagan today. You've all been asking the questions, and today I'm providing some answers about those funny gay folks and how they fit into a fertility religion that seems obsessed with penises, vaginas, and how one fits into the other.
    The word of the day is noetic.
    The poems (yep, there're two!) are 'GOD HATES YOU' and 'After a Fall.'
    The news articles have to do with gay marriage becoming legalized in Mexico and Portugal, as well as the ongoing issue of Prop 8 and gay marriage in California.
    I also play a bit of music from Sinead O'Connor. The song is Thank You For Hearing Me, and it can be purchased on iTunes. Like I did. Legally. If anybody asks...
    Donate to the Haiti Relief Fund by calling 1 800 REDCROSS or by texting Haiti to 90999 - which will donate $10 to the Redcross for relief efforts in Haiti.
    Love and Lyte,
    Fire Lyte
    PS Rioters, during editing the beginning of a couple of words got cut off. I hope you don't hate me. Podcasting is a learning experience!
