Episode 214 – Live from Mystic South

We share our experiences at the recent Mystic South Conference

Summary: Laine and Cory share a brief recap of their experiences at the recent Mystic South Conference in Atlanta. We talk about workshops, playing sleepover games, singing some Michelle Branch songs, and more! Plus we try out some readings with some new decks of cards and thank our listeners for being awesome!

Producer for this show: This episode we didn’t add a producer tag (mostly because it’s a short ep) but we do want to thank everyone who has been giving us encouragement and love as we work through a pretty rollercoaster-y sort of month. Thank you for your support of this episode and for your ongoing support of New World Witchery.

We were thrilled to be a part of the Mystic South Conference! We hope that if you are able you’ll consider coming to it in the future (as we very well might, too)!

Cory also has a YouTube video of his academic paper on “Wicked Games: Occult Play & Folklore” from the PCA/ACA Conference in Spring 2022 (but it’s mostly the same information as the one from Mystic South).

We also did some readings with The Doodle Tarot by Em Kay Holloway, and got our readings done by Laura Tempest Zakroff with her new Anatomy of a Witch Oracle (we mislabel it the Weave the Liminal oracle, which is the name of another of her fabulous books, so sorry about that!)

Cory also got to meet one of his favorite podcasters, Carmanda from the What the Folklore podcast (and even buy some of her art!)

We hung out with awesome folks like Thorn Mooney, Kelden, David Salisbury, Ivo Dominguez Jr, Laura Tempest Zakroff, and Heron Michelle, so if you don’t know those folks you should check them out!

You can now buy Cory’s book, New World Witchery: A Trove of North American Folk Magic! (also available from Amazon)

Quick Update – Pagan Podkin Super Moot 3

Even though it sounds like a Japanese-import video game from the 90’s, the title of this blog post actually refers to the annual gathering of Pagan and magically-minded podcasters which is in its third year now. A number of podcasters have already been mentioning the event, but we only nailed down final details in the past few days. This year’s event is going to be in the San Francisco area, so if you’re out California way, come on by! We’ll be having a meet-and-greet as usual, which will also involve the opportunity to win some swag from some of the Moot sponsors (see below for a complete list and copious thanks to them). The date of the meet-and-greet is Saturday, October 6th, and we’re tentatively saying we’ll be there from 1pm to 4pm, though we may wind up sticking around a little longer.

Our meet-and-greet is going to be on Saturday, Oct. 6th at The Mystic Dream in Walnut Creek, CA, and they’ve been very accommodating to us so far, so we’re thrilled to be there!

The podcasters attending are:

We may also have some guests from the SFO area coming out to meet up, too, including magical authors and musicians, though we’re still hammering out those details.

We want to send special thanks to our sponsors this year, too! You’ll probably hear us gushing over them plenty in the coming weeks, but I’m going to be the first (I think):

They’ve all been incredibly generous with us, and they’re almost all small shops/publishers/artists who can use some support, so please surf over to them and check out what they have.

If you’re going to be coming to the meet-and-greet, please let me know! I’d love to plan to meet you and maybe even get the chance to sit and chat a while! You can leave a comment on this post or drop me an email. You can also keep up to date on the plans and details of the events at www.paganpodkin.com.

Hope to see at least some of you there!

-Cory
