Excited to welcome Ian C Edwards back on the show! In this episode we talk about that liminal space that connects occult practice with depth psychology, what it means to walk a crooked path and Ian's magical cartography.

We close out Robert Anton Wilson Month here in the liminal zone with author Gabriel PropAnon Kennedy. Kennedy wrote the inspiring and insightful biography on Wilson (Chapel Perilous : The Life and Thought Crimes of Robert Anton Wilson). In this episode we discuss RAW's favored various exercises and methods for state-change, the 8 Circuit Model and what RAW might've thought of the current political/cultural climate.

For the 23rd episode it seemed like a no-brainer to invite someone on to talk Robert Anton Wilson, and who better than the cofounder of Hilaritas Press, Richard Rasa. Hilaritas keeps RAW's books in print, as well as sharing key unpublished collections with the world. Richard is a musician, writer and longtime friend of Robert Anton Wilson. On this episode he shares many interesting stories about RAW, his concepts and a bit about Timothy Leary as well! IMPORTANT NOTE : I fjorded up and repeatedly referred to Richard as Robert in the intro. To my knowledge, he hasn't changed his name or identity. Hope he forgives me!

I enjoyed my conversation with Shea Bilé so much that I just had to share this extra content originally slated for the Patreon feed on the main show. Please listen to the last episode first, if you haven't already. Enjoy!

Shea Bilé is a writer, lecturer and evangelist for Satanism. He approaches it with an academic rigor and unbridled enthusiasm. This was a fascinating and occasionally controversial romp through the history of Satanism and how it's developed into such a robust current of modern occultism. Check out the Patreon for even more of the conversation. 

check out his book Friedrich Nietzsche and the Left Hand Path, as well as his course The Fire and the Wine here :

On today's show we are joined by author/teacher/translator Ran (Thursaruna), who drops into the current to discuss the history of the Runes and how his understanding and radical working with them are from the perspective of the outsider, the rebel, the antinomian (the Giants), as opposed to the Norse Gods of order and submission. This was a truly inspired conversation. Enjoy!

Spencer Sunshine has been researching and organizing against the Far Right and Neo-Nazi movements for decades. His book Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism is a modern classic on the subject. On today's show we talk how figures like Boyd Rice, Michael Moynihan, Nikolas Shreck and Adam Parfrey subtly and otherwise seeded Neo-nazi ideology into the underground and are at least partially responsible for the modern rash of racially motivated violence. Later in the conversation we talk about how many of the main figures in the history of modern Satanism were either apologists or outright nazis also. This was a wild, occasionally uncomfortable but illuminating talk. 

Despite having much in common on their spiritual paths, Ike Baker and Marco Visconti have been in a war of words on the virtual battleground of social media for far too long. On this episode, we see what happens when they both agree to speak to each other in an extended dialogue over Zoom. I sincerely wish more of the online magical wars were approached this way. Hope you enjoy and appreciate this  special episode as much as I did. 

Legendary writer Peter Levenda rides the Liminal Currents this episode and expounds on how so many cultures had elements of soul travel to the stars. He'll be leading a retreat on the subject in October in Joshua Tree alongside Marco Visconti. Later, he speaks on Kenneth Grant and HP Lovecraft! So much goodness for one show. As usual, become a patron to access extra topics and more of this episodes chat with Peter.
