Some of the things discussed today include:
- Cory mentions the book, The Joy of Sex, by Alex Comfort
- The discussion of sex and scent brings up bay rum scented items, Bourbon French Parfums in New Orleans, and vanilla (oh, and you should also check out the scent-and-sex heavy book Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins)
- In Peter Paddon’s book, Grimoire for Modern Cunning Folk, the deluxe edition has some additional material on sexual fluids in magic. He also has a podcast discussion on sex magic that is excellent.
- Cory mentions the use of Damiana liqueur as an aphrodisiac
- We talk about using turkey bones in the Ozarks as a sexual magnet. You can find a picture about it here, and lots about it in Ozark Magic & Folklore, by Vance Randolph.
- The Crowley quote about masturbation comes from his book Magick.
- Cory mentions he’s been watching the occult series called Salem on WGN, and that our previous guest Papa Toad Bone may have a role on it at some point.
Keep watching for information on the next Pagan Podkin Supermoot, hosted by Fire Lyte in Chicago (in conjunction with the Pagan Pride Day up there).

I’ve really enjoyed this show, and the last few as well, but I really got a chuckle with this one.
Good luck with all the coming changes to both of you. I’m bracing for the lack of shows and waiting patiently for the dust to settle.
Blessings,
Ken
Thanks Ken! We’ve got some interviews stashed and I think we’ll be able to muddle through until we both can get back to a recording schedule. Stay tuned!
I am not sure I’ve ever found you guys quite so precious as I did this episode. XD It’s all the giggling.
Lol, we were simultaneously fully grown adults and dirty-minded 12 year-olds during that discussion, for some reason 🙂
