In this episode, Gabriel Kennedy, aka Prop Anon, speaks with Darragh Maso, author of Song of the Dark Man: Father of Witches, Lord of the Crossroads.

Darragh is an award-winning travel photographer, researcher, witch, and author. His book tells the tale of the folkloric figure known as 'The Dark Man,' and what happened to Darragh when he encountered him in real life! Our conversation covers that as well as the sources he used for his book. The Dark Man has a message for humanity at the moment. It's up to us to hear it.

Grant Morrison is a Scottish comics writer, Hollywood screenwriter, executive producer, and cat lover. For over four decades, his work has entertained and inspired millions of readers with his unique form of storytelling, making him one of the most popular writers in Comics history. His list of bone fides is too long to name, but my favorites have been Arkham Asylum, Animal Man, Doom Patrol, New X-Men, The Filth, The Invisibles and his nonfiction book Supergods.

Morrison’s work is a testament to the Promethean urge in us all to achieve our highest potential selves before shedding our mortal coils. For me, The Invisibles will remain the best comic I’ve ever read as the series captured my imagination in the same way that Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea’s Illuminatus! trilogy did.

I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing Grant three times before, but this is his first appearance on The Prop Anon Podcast. In this interview we speak about Morrison’ magickal observations of the Trump regime, to which he asks, “Where are my Invisibles?” as a rallying cry for others, American especially, to stand up to and defeat the rising tide of fascism in the world. Morrison is clear, Andrew Tate is a far cry from King Mob and so it is time yet again for the left to get cooler, sexier, and tougher than those fascists trampling on our rights. We talk about how this phenomenon relates to the magickal metaphor known as the Aeon of Ma’at and how vital it is for all of us to increase our knowledge of magick. We also speak about The Invisibles and its spiritual sequel The Filth. Morrison reveals his secrets behind the writing of that graphic novel and how he uses writing as a powerful tool in his magickal tool kit. We also speak about Chaos Magic, the Holy Guardian Angel, and how Bast, the Egyptian Cat Goddess is probably the most powerful deity in today’s world.

In this episode, I interview Rachel Turetzky, PhD and Douglas Wingate about their recent book 8 Circuit Ascension: A Guide to Metaprogramming the Multidimensional Self, published by Original Falcon Press. Their book explores the 8 Circuit Brain Model that Timothy Leary and Robert Anton Wilson first created in the 1970s, while synthesizing the model with new studies in neuroscience and psychedelics. The book also integrates the ideas of Antero Alli, Stanislav Grof, and the Holonomic brain theory with current research in developmental psychology. Rachel and Doug have spent years working in the realm of psychedelic-assisted therapy and their experience shows. Working in such spaces has allowed them to speak new life into the 8 Circuit Brain Model and provides inspiration for future researchers.
