Hello again my witchy friends, and thanks for tuning in to today's episode of The Fat Feminist Witch!

Today’s episode is a little different, because it’s actually the first episode of a new show I’ve created called The Hedonic Tone, all about the goddess Voluptas, hedonism, and magical pleasure.

This is a show with lisenced music, which is exclusive to Spotify, so while the episode shared here is music free for all to enjoy, you can find the full episode at HERE!

Thank you so much everyone for joining me today on the Fat Feminist Witch Podcast. This week I have a really exciting DOUBLE FEATURE! I had a privilege to interview two of the stars of the new documentary about modern witches COVEN, which premiered last month on CBC.

In this episode I'm talking with Laura Hokstad, a tarot reader and witch who is searching for a way to connect with others, and herself, through witchcraft. She visits some local covens and priestesses, each who have their own ways of bringing other witches together, and then she leaves Canada to explore ancestors in her past who are part of some of the biggest events in the history of witch trials.

There is a transcription available for this episode, which you can download at the following link:

Happy Halloween my witchy friends!

In this year's halloween special I'm talking about real and fictional books bound in human skin, and the origins of grimoires and other historical spell books.

Megan Rosenbloom, the author of Dark Archives, is also a death-positive activist and one of the founders of the Order of the Good Death, which seeks to make death a little easier on those of us who will have to face it some day. They have a ton of resources and books on death around the world, in different cultures, and throughout history. https://www.orderofthegooddeath.com/ If you want to learn more about the anthropodermic books covered in Dark Archives visit https://anthropodermicbooks.org. Finally, I highly recommend reading Dark Archives, which you can get from Amazon.ca or Amazon.com!

HELLO AGAIN MY WITCHY FRIENDS!

In this episode a share a difficult experience I had last month, re-introduce myself and share a bit about who I am, talk about the magic of Honeysuckle and Lemon Jade, and tell you all how happy I am to be alive! Unfortunately, this episode has to come with a trigger warning for mentions of attempted suicide and drug overdose, so please keep yourself safe and also don't judge me for the tears haha!

After 7 amazing, wonderful, magical years ranting, raving, and wand-waving as The Fat Feminist Witch, I have decided to hang up my pointed hat and shift my focus toward my health and independence. In my final episode I talk about what the show, and all of you, have meant to me over the years. I cry a little bit, just a heads up. 

Thank you for listening, sharing, commenting, supporting, blurbing, writing, laughing, and connecting with me. I hope that we find ourselves on the same witchy path again in the future.

My website, https://thefatfeministwitch.wordpress.com will stay up, as will the podcast here on Anchor, but no new episodes will be released. The patreon page is shutting down, but the private facebook group will be available for those who are already members. I will continue to use twitter in the same non-professional way I have been using it for years, haha! 

I have been compiling episodes into themed playlists on Spotify and you can find them all, along with playlists I made for specific episodes and witchy purposes, at the following link.

I hope you all have a Happy New Year's eve, and year, and a fabulous and magical future. I love you!
