Part road trip, part mythology, the Hermes & Hekate Road Show puts the gods of ancient Greece on a pair of motorcycles and sets them loose on America’s highways.
Hello Road Show listeners! Golly, it’s been awhile–though if you’re following our Facebook page then you already know that we’ve begun recording Series 2 of The Hermes & Hekate Road Show. Series 2 will have seven episodes instead of five and will features a whole bunch of new characters, as well as some favorites from Series 1. (Who, you ask? Well, as a hint, the subtitle for Series 2 is The War Gods.)
We’ve been hard at work with an improved recording setup, courtesy of our intrepid producer, Erik Banach, who also gets the fairly tedious but extremely important job of mixing down the voice tracks and adding sound effects and music. It’s been a challenging spring for many of our voice talent and we really appreciate their willingness to keep working on this project, particularly since we are paying them in snacks and booze.
Recording of Series 2 should wrap up in the next few weeks, then we’ll be working on post-production this summer. Expect an announcement regarding when we’ll begin releasing new episodes very soon! And thank you for your support!

Myths and mysteries. Fables and fairy tales. Anecdotes and adventures. Oracles and oral tradition. Life surrounds us with themes, archetypes, symbols, and patterns that we weave into narrative to inform our relationship to everything: our selves, others, community, culture, nature, the divine. Courageous exploration of storytelling and its metaphors serves as a powerful tool for spiritual healing, growth, and change; dynamic, deliberate relationship with magick, myth & meaning facilitates personal, interpersonal & collective transformation. After all, stories, storytelling, and storytellers empower us to make connection, assign meaning, create value, heal history, explode paradigms, build the future, and reclaim both individual and shared experience.The Fortelling podcast celebrates stories, storytellers, and storytelling as magick and medicine. Without stories, storytellers, and storytelling, we lose our place in the world. Because life *is* stories. And stories are FORTELLING.

The Emerald explores the human experience through a vibrant lens of myth, story, and imagination. Brought to life through the wise, wild, and humorous vision of Joshua Michael Schrei — a teacher and lifelong student of the cosmologies and mythologies of the world — the podcast draws from a deep well of poetry, lore, and mythos to challenge conventional narratives on politics and public discourse, meditation and mindfulness, art, science, literature, and more. At the heart of the podcast is the premise that the imaginative, poetic, animate heart of human experience — elucidated by so many cultures over so many thousands of years — is missing in modern discourse and is urgently needed at a time when humanity is facing unprecedented problems. The Emerald advocates for an imaginative vision of human life and human discourse as it questions deep underlying assumptions about societal progress.

You can’t spell Game Master without “pretentious.” Well, you can, actually. But let’s pretend you can’t so I can make a point. My point is a good Game Master needs a lot of big, fancy words at their disposal to make their flavor text as confusing as possible. Oops. I mean engaging, not confusing.

Yes, once again it is time for another of our world famous Lost Episodes.
The problem is, there’s been a whole bunch of extenuating circumstances, which we try to explain somewhat unsuccessfully. But at least you get to hear some bits about swords, socks, and ninjas, along with a couple of people who really were in charge, like it or not. The whole episode just oozes with predicaments for you to try to sort through.
We’re switching up our means of support. Now, if you’d like to help support the show and want less of a hassle than Patreon used to be, we can direct you straight to Buy Me A Coffee, instead. Check it out at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Fiddleback

Kate and Daniel are reunited at last, but they have to return to their duties in traveling the afterlife. There are stolen souls suffering without cause in Hell, and only they can help. Kate is back in her corporeal body, but keeping memories of her time as pure soul energy, recently touched by the divine. Daniel carries the magic of an old god and the sword of a death goddess, as well a grudge against the deity who tricked him into losing nearly everything. As they search for the missing souls, Kate and Daniel have to come to terms with themselves and see if their friendship – not to mention the cosmos – can handle everything they’ve been through thus far.

According to Jewish tradition, the world around us is filled with demons, ghosts, giants and angels, and creatures of all types. But Judaism today tends to downplay and rationalize them away, to the point where they’re just forgotten dusty metaphors. But for millenia, Jews have lived with these creatures and have had practical means for coping with them.
Join Jack Zaientz a scholar of all things Jewish folklore and mythology and John Baltisberger, the award-winning author of Jewish horror and fantasy as they explore the topics of mythic Judaism and discuss it’s survival and use in modern day culture both pop and otherwise.

The Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève presents Overmorrow’s Library, a podcast series by Federico Campagna, available on the 5th floor (digital extension): https://5e.centre.ch/en/ The library for ‘the day after tomorrow’ is dedicated to books and authors whose work explores the limits of the ‘world’ as the frame of sense through which our consciousness experiences the chaos of reality. Each new episode presents a book that engages with the challenge of world-making, with the end-time of a world, or with the eternal unworldly. Spanning mysticism, politics, mythology, philosophy, video-game design and more, the shelves of Overmorrow’s Library are a space for experimenting with the apocalypse, and with the ignition of new cosmogonies. Federico Campagna is an Italian philosopher and writer living in London. His latest books are ‘Prophetic Culture: Recreation for Adolescents’ (Bloomsbury, 2021), ‘Technic and Magic: The Reconstruction of Reality’ (Bloomsbury, 2018), and ‘The Last Night: Anti-work, Atheism, Adventure’ (Zero Books, 2013). He is a lecturer and tutor at KABK, The Hague, and has presented his work in institutions including the Warburg Institute, the Royal Academy, the 57th and 58th Venice Biennale, Documenta 13, Winzavod Center, Jameel Art Centre, Tate Modern and the Serpentine Gallery. He is the director of rights at the radical publisher Verso Books. Image credit: The Gilgamesh Tablet (Library of Ashurbanipal), 7th c. BCE.

It is the next book of an author of apocalyptic books. It may be said that this book is an adapted version of “Book of Rescue from the Doomsday 2012-2013” for the World of Unicellular. Moreover, it is a span-new book. Are you still waiting for Armageddon? Doomsday has already come… You needn’t waiting for it neither in 2012, nor in some other year. People should be deleted. Critique: It is about the connection of Anunaki and the Earth for the first time. By the way, by this fact “The World of Unicellular” reminds very much of scandalous books of Zecharia Sitchin, such as “The 12th Planet” (1978), “When Time Began” (1993), “Jorneys to the Mythical Past” (2008) in which the origin of our planet and mankind as result of attack Anunaki from a planet of Nibiru reveals. Sales of these books were enormous and they have caused huge interest in the people. Zecharia Sitchin, the expert on history and culture of the Near East, ancient languages and Sumer writing, on the basis of system researches of Sumer, Assyrian, Babylon and Hebrew texts has come to the conclusions shaking bases both a modern science, and religions concerning a mankind origin. Oleg Seriy not only became on protection of the theory of Sitchin, but also has developed it in a new radical way, having added his own vision of the world creation. A task of Seriy, as he puts it to himself is “that we have think of and change our life”, hence, the author is not able to manage it without the sermon turned to grass-roots. There are so many talks about a doomsday and attack of aliens, but everybody thinks that aliens will capture people from space. There is no one thinking that it can be in another way. The author was the first expressing the ideas about those aliens are got into people!!! Also he was the first who has developed this idea. Oleg Seriy hasn’t laid aside the problems of economic and political character also. George Orwell in his “1984”, John Perkins in “Confessions of an Economic Hit-Man” tried to reach the judiciousness of people. But it was only the iceberg top. Oleg Seriy’s work is more deeply developed, rather than Perkins managed to do it. Oleg Seriy’ deeper and radical thoughts admire with the completeness and innovation. This book is really stunning from the point of view of sense and the maintenance. The idea, that people are morons, is very courageous statement. Even Zion wise men that have described “Akumas” (people-slaves) in their reports, have not dare to do it. The idea about the deepest global problem of a society (mankind moronity) is a basis for thinking about meaning of the life. And it is necessary so few to reach the idyll, so desired by a society. The only thing needs is to resolve this problem (to get rid of mankind moronity). But are people capable to understand it? This question is bringing up through the whole book of the author. Conclusion The author has mentioned ideas, which only great writers, as H.G. Wells in his “War of the Worlds”, or Ursula K. Le Guin in her “Rocannon’s World” have dared to mention. The Same ideas have been filmed in such films as “2012” directed by Roland Emmerich and “Mars attacks!” directed by Tim Burton, who has collected 2 awards and 13 nominations. It is just surprisingly how well Oleg Seriy has managed to display all problems exciting mankind in his book. Authors and directors even earlier have tried to state urgent problems in their works, but Oleg Seriy managed to collect all facts in one book and to state them from a position of the modern world, to introduce the opinion of theory of a mankind origin from deeper point of view. So favourite and popular among readers book of known writers even were filmed by successful directors: “1984” directed by Michael Radford (on George Orwell’s novel of the same name), “War of the worlds” directed by Stephen Spielberg (on Herbert Wells’ novel of the same name), “War of the worlds of Herbert Wells” by Timothy Hines (as a the filmed version of the novel of Herbert Wells “War of the worlds”). Who is this AntiChrist?!? What are signs of a doomsday?!? What measures will be undertaken by aliens against the fallen mankind?!? In this book you will find answers to these and many other questions. Good luck.
