S2E21 - For the people... by the people

On this episode we touched on a lot of subjects from supporting local businesses, shout-outs to a few favorites in the area and how we the people - have the final say regardless of the distraction techniques used ad infinitum in all forms of media and 'representation'.
 
Wipe the deck, clean the house and hit the reset button!  We need to turn this thing off and back on again, clear the cache of stupidity and start fresh.
 
The other person struggling is not your enemy - that would be the one pulling the strings and watching the show. 

S2E20 - Sick of It

In a near homage to one of our favorite podcasts "Fed Up" here's one detailing some of the things we are just sick of!  Everyone has their pet peeves and things that grate their nerves.. here are a few of ours!
 
Menthal vapes may just be topping the list for John... or maybe the banana lady at Aldi's... it's a toss-up.

S2E19 You No Take Candle!

On this episode we forayed into our first attempt at combining video with a podcast via Facebook Live - see it at https://www.facebook.com/Pickeyweedz
 
We talked about a ton of differing topics from experiences in the store to past experiences within careers of the past as well as esoteric experiences we had over the years. 
 
It was a ton of fun engaging with our audience live, which may be something we continue going forward.
 
On another note, who else has been experiencing symptoms similar to Tay's persistent cough over the past several months? Inquiring herbalists want to know!

S2E18 A little everything all at once with special guest & author Christopher Bilardi

On this episode, we sat down with our good friend Christopher Bilardi, author of The Red Church one of the best books on Pennsylvania Dutch we've ever read.  We talked a bit about his upbringing, background and the state of things in the esoteric world today.  We're also very excited to see a new Sybil Leek book in the works that he has edited to be released hopefully in the next year or so!
We had a wonderful time as always with Christopher and hope you enjoy this episode as well.

S2E17 Therapy in Action with Special Guest Brandon Puglisi, LCSW, CAMS-II, EMDR

On this episode, we had the good fortune of sitting down with Brandon Puglisi of Puglisi Counseling in a conversation that ranged from his background to his multi-faceted approach to therapy.  No two people are exactly alike and neither should be the approach to each person's mental health.  Brandon spells it out in his unique, open, and friendly way where there is never any judgment. 
As practitioners, occultists, pagans, etc. this is invaluable to know as many times therapists come with their own biases and preconceived notions in terms of spirituality, religion, or the lack thereof. 
This was one of our favorite episodes and we're planning to do a LIVE event in the next month or so where folks can ask questions etc. with Brandon and us during the recording.
Thanks so much, Brandon for taking the time out to chat with us this morning!

S2E16 Block Party

On this episode we discussed the ongoing block party on social media platforms, the genocide happening before our eyes, the corporate overlords and the powers working behind the scenes to control our world.  We also talked about just how important the currency of the people is on where they spend their money and that the fight isn't about left vs. right - rather it is between the haves and have-not's. The 99% of us struggling and the 1% who are hoarding all the gold.
Local and State elections matter, where you spend your money matters, small business matters - corporate spreadsheets do not.
 

S2E15 Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

On this episode we took a brief look into Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as it may apply to spiritual practice.  That is, in terms of addressing one's basic needs as best as they can in this whirlwind of crisis that we all live in today so as to be able to open ourselves more fully to spirit.  
 

S2E14 The Politics of Fire

On this episode, we had a wide-ranging conversation from talking about the man who self-immolated this past week to the importance of voting, and even threw in a quick run-through on intuitive tarot!
A bit of everything in this one.
