Temple of the River disbanding in 60 seconds or less
00:56
Let’s talk about pagans…tonight
01:04
The Pagan’s Tonight show has an incresing similarity to our topic list, like their obscure topics like otherkin.
01:26
After analyzing all the episodes, we’ve found 5 topics after going through over 500 episodes of theirs
02:23
We go over how our stuff is creative commons…but we also release it under the attributions liscence. So if you use our stuff…give us credit!
03:06
Proms to Lamyka’s Wiccan Podcast!
03:22
Topic One: What superstitions do you have?
04:40
There’s a difference between omens and superstitions…so let’s find a definition!
05:58
Maybe the definition comes from whether something is interacting with you vs. looking for outside influences to tell you how to act or what to do.
07:22
It’s just meant to be.
07:30
Superstition boils down to spiritual OCD
07:51
Topic Two: Books of Shadow
10:09
Topic Three: Mexican Magik…but we don’t have any Mexicans….
11:17
There’s a lot of Aztec heritage down in Mexico, so it makes sense for it not to be a forign idea to them
11:36
Why do we think the “most advanced” group are the ones that are the hardest to convince that magic things are real.
11:54
Dave brings up T.Thorn Coyle’s podcast that touches on the Hindu’s and how they find it a powerful image to see sucessful americans that embrace the Hindu pracitces
12:57
We fit into a 12 step program???
13:25
Topic Four: Why wear pagan jewelry?
14:25
Let’s expand it: Any kind of religious jewelry like Mojo bags or talismans
16:16
Topic Five: Secrets…
18:51
Slight tangent, there is material out there that can permenantly scar you if you know before you’re ready. It’s information that once you know…you can’t unknow
19:28
Amanda Eve talks about how she wants to be a teacher, and asks about a pagan based school that’s K-12
21:24
If Amanda makes a school…we have the problem of populating it
21:50
Pagans Tonight was summerized in about 20 minutes. Onto Scurvy’s rant pile!
22:09
Somehow we turn from rant to Scurvy’s RV discussion. What’s this about it being run on motor oil????
23:54
Scurvy’s first topic on his rant list: Be Honest, Be Clear, and Be In a Position to offer feedback
24:35
Scurvy’s Rant Topic Two: Gossip in the News, and how to handle people gossiping
25:25
Most people have a problem listening
25:58
Scurvy gives an example of bad gossip
26:23
Amber goes over how there’s a fine line between giving info to protect someone else and just being over sensitive and muddying someone’s name because you’re being an ass
28:02
Dave asks Barrett about the Asatru regulations on not just spewing other people’s information
28:36
Scurvy goes over how everyone has bad days and why that’s relevant
29:24
Even if you’re having a bad day, you’re still responsible for your actions
31:01
Amanda talks about how other people hate when other people succeed when they’re not able to. Ashlee has lived through that mistake and gives and example.
31:31
Scurvy brings up another example
31:31
Scurvy brings up another example
32:30
Amber brings up that once people look up to another person, all the flaws that BNP has are exaggerated because they’re supposed to be our leaders
32:57
Scurvy reviews excellence between rulers and common people back in the feudal system
34:18
Amanda brings up that just because you’re not a wisened sage…does not mean that you don’t have knowledge on a certain subject
34:51
Sometimes it has more to do with understanding as an adult rather than who’s a BNP or who has the right to criticize
35:31
Dave says that in Wicca…it doesn’t matter how high you are…you are always subject to questioning
36:14
There seems to be this weird idea that when you hit this mysterious age…you stop learning and you become a wise sage. Which is just silliness
37:08
The phrase is respect your elders…not respect old people
38:11
Why do we have to know everything? The best conversations are when we learn from other people.
39:01
There’s not a whole lot of money in the pagan community, so most of us have day jobs. But there’s a whole lot to talk about here…so we’re gonna call it a night and save that for another episode!
