Elizabeth Says:

First of all, I’m absolutely addicted to your podcast! I’ve learned so much from you guys, but I still want to learn more. Who are some of your favorite pagan authors? I’m interested in Celtic paganism and eclectic Wicca. I don’t really know any authors besides Silver Ravenwolf. I also have “Exploring Wicca” by Lady Sabrina and “Celtic Myth & Magic” by Edain McCoy. Who would you recommend. I’m looking for something that will tell me about pagan beliefs but also teach me how to think for myself regarding ritual and such. I also want to learn more about energy work. Thanks for your help!

Patricia Says:

Hey guys, I gotta say, I love this show!

I found it by chance while looking for new PodCasts to entertain me at work, and I’m glad I started listening. You guys do awesome work, and you’ve taught me a good amount that I didn’t know before, and given me ideas of what to learn more about.

As a Kemetic worshiper, I was hoping at some point perhaps you’d talk more about it. I’m still new to the scene, and am trying to find more information about it. Being in the middle of the Bible Belt rather limits my access to religion outside of Christian types.

Even if you don’t, I’ll gladly keep listening! Keep up the amazing work!

Corin Says:

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if it would possible to discuss “coming out of the closet” in the religious/spiritual sense. Due to the fact that I live in the Buckle of the Bible Belt (Dallas, TX. Hi from DFW, Dave!), I am curious about ways of broaching this topic when many people around you are “I will tie you down and beat you with my Bible if you don’t agree with me” Christians.

Also, love the show. It makes me feel a lot better about the world knowing that there are other people that can have fun but still intelligent discussions about Paganism. Keep up the good work, you guys rock!
