Author, activist and educator, Dougald Hine returns to the show this week for a discussion that is simultaneously timely and timeless. If you’ve been following along on the blog, you’ll know that I have been wrestling with how to say things, with whom and to what end given how the world is going. One of the topics I had been meaning to record on for months now was the resurgence of Christianity: whether it is surprising or not, whether it is automatically reactionary, whether it is a sign of things improving or devolving. And I tried coming at that from several angles including recording a whole solo show before leaving Paraguay on the topic that I didn’t release but found none of them were satisfactory. Then I messaged Dougald about it and it turns out it’s an area he is also exploring, both personally and ‘culturally’ (whatever that means) right now. Plus, he’s something of an aficionado of the works of Ivan Illich -whose insight is especially useful in these times. So he graciously agreed to come back on the show to prove the point that two heads are definitely better than one. We explore the possible why of Christianity’s resurgence, who ‘owns’ it and what happens if we don’t engage, plus its different forms and mutations. Then we turn to Ivan Illich himself: beginning with a biography and an overview of his thought, before finishing with what he might have to say about these very strange times we are living through. (And depending on when you catch this episode, there is still time to get in on some Illich discussions with Dougald. Details in the show notes. 🔼🔼SHOW NOTES🔼🔼 Dougald’s Substack.

This week I had been meaning to do a World Without Sin solo show on the censorship laws rolling out around the world and their implications. Then, as we all know by now, whatever is going on with Russell Brand started happening, so we begin our story there. (It’s worth noting I recorded this about 24 hours ago, before YouTube demonetised his channel.)

Greg Carlwood returns to the show for another instalment of the book club nobody asked for! We explore the best alternative medicine perhaps 'true healing' or 'actually effective' is better books that we know of. Nutrition, breathwork, light therapy, terrain theory, energy healing. It's all here, baby. Greg has spent years interviewing some of the leading lights in what allopathy absurdly calls 'alternative' healing on The Higherside Chats.

One of my favourite guests returns to the show this week for a scintillating and freewheeling dive into the perennial question of whether there are aliens in the Bible. Author, researcher, psychonaut and hypnotist Danny Nemu. The impetus for this discussion is a book and a thesis that’s been translated out of Italian and into English relatively recently: Mauro Biglino’s Gods of The Bible. Speaking of translation, for years, Mauro was a translator of Biblical texts for the Vatican’s official publisher. Over the course of that work, he began to have questions about this term, ‘Elohim’, and all the other strange stuff that’s in there. So he decided to translate the Old Testament literally and what emerges is alien beings and flying saucers and all that classic Ancient Aliens fare. A few people started asking me about the Biglino hypothesis, and then Mauro himself was on Graham Hancock’s podcast. And then, Graham’s son Luke quoted from one of Danny’s books in the same podcast. Danny was the person whose take on the hypothesis I most wanted to hear because of his work on the presence of entheogens and drugs in the Bible. So that was enough of a sign for me to repeatedly peer-pressure him into buying and reading the book so we could talk about it. Anyway, he graciously obliged. So here is a Star.Ships meets ‘are there drugs in the Bible’ take on aliens, the power of language, the use of metaphor, literalism as spells and a whole lot more. Super excited for this one.

In this episode, we dive deep into the origin of our understanding of prophecy, how it is different from prediction and where this understanding is useful for sorcerers, astrologers and magicians. We explore the Old Testament prophets and how their roles changed over the centuries, how they positioned themselves toward power and what kind of 'Prophetic moment' we might find ourselves in. And then if you're watching the replay rather than listening to the audio, we finish off with a now-traditional Q&A at the end.

This is one of the most fascinating discussions I have had this year. For centuries, people have speculated as to the formulation of the legendary substance of the Gods known as soma. It's something I have kept my eye on for a couple of decades now. And, as far as I can tell, Dr Etminan's research is the best pointer in the direction of what that might have been. Even better than that? His research has developed into a completely legal product you can try for yourself today. In this show, we explore exactly who the Zoroastrian Magi were, what customs and beliefs fed into their practices and what haoma might have been and how it was used. Then we'll explore Shauheen's journey toward the development and release of the Ancestral Magi products and how they can be used today. I am particularly excited to see these in the hands of visionary astrologers. Have at it! Brilliant stuff.

The one, the only Christopher Knowles returns to the show this week for a breezy romp through our near-term future. No, seriously. The end of the West offers perhaps the best time in centuries to be a weird kid. Chris and I talk about the latest UFO nonsense, modern parallels to the fall of Rome, just how long collapses actually take and what they look like for those of us who came to Earth to live through one. Combined with last week's astro forecast, this is a really great discussion to have and a collection of worthy points to table in the lead-up to the final AI solo show. There's just one more piece to play coming up and then we can release those particular robot hounds.

Continuing our exploration of the impact of AI on our world, in this episode, we will be exploring what happens when AI gets to decide what is real. If you have already used Chat GPT, you may have found that it refuses to answer some questions -about biopolitics or geopolitics or even exopolitics. Or if it does, it simply enforces the party line. Either that or it gives you a Lisa Simpson-style caveat about how 'important it is' to respect diversity at the end. We have seen what happens when political information is dropped from Google results. AI will multiply that effect a thousandfold. Join Gordon as we explore the question: Can AI be trusted to censor our reality? As is traditional now, there is a Q&A at the end for those on the livestream. 🔼🔼SHOW NOTES🔼🔼 ✅ Sign up to the newsletter so you never miss a podcast or blog post: https://runesoup.com/emails/ ✅ Join the Rune Soup Premium Membership for hundreds of hours of magical training: https://runesoup.com/join-rune-soup/ ✅ Join the Rune Soup Telegram Group: https://t.me/runesoupchat ✅ Book a shamanic healing session with Gordon: https://runesoup.com/shamanic-energy-healing/ 🔼🔼ABOUT RUNE SOUP🔼🔼 Rune Soup is a podcast channel that platforms the most important discussions at the cutting edge of magic, animism and spirit work.

We examine the curious case of Andromalius, the final spirit of the Goetia. We discuss occult style.

This week, we welcome to the show artists, musicians, authors and fellow podcasters, Risa Dickens and Amy Torok. Amy and Risa join us for a deep dive on the archetype of the witch: - What is it? - What changes does it portend? - What does it mean when it is so close to the surface? - What are our obligations to it? We also talk ancestors, reclaiming history, art-as-magic and a whole lot more.

Author and (post)activist Dougald Hine joins us this week for a powerful discussion about our moment and what if anything we should 'do' with and about it. The springboard for our chat is Dougald's recently-released book, At Work in the Ruins. We unpack the title what do we mean by 'work' as well as what we mean by 'ruins'. Physical? Cultural? Social? We talk about what it means to hospice modernity and we unpack why one of the founders of the Dark Mountain project is no longer talking about climate change. Really good stuff. Good, timely stuff. Enjoy! 🔼🔼SHOW NOTES🔼🔼 At Work in The Ruins https://www.amazon.com/At-Work-Ruins-Pandemics-Emergencies/dp/164502184X Dougald's Website https://dougald.nu/ A School Called Home https://aschoolcalledhome.org/ 🔼🔼 WHAT NEXT?🔼🔼 ✅ Sign up to the newsletter so you never miss a podcast or blog post: https://runesoup.com/emails/ ✅ Join the Rune Soup Premium Membership for hundreds of hours of magical training: https://runesoup.com/join-rune-soup/ ✅ Join the Rune Soup Telegram Group: https://t.me/runesoupchat ✅ Book a shamanic healing session with Gordon: https://runesoup.com/shamanic-energy-healing/ 🔼🔼ABOUT RUNE SOUP🔼🔼 Rune Soup is a podcast channel that platforms the most important discussions at the cutting edge of magic, animism and spirit work.
