So I apologize for my mechanical froggy weird sound on this one.  Also, please note that this show is dedicated to the memory of Sarah Elizabeth Lyter (1985 - 2018). I did not know her.

Welcome to Weird Web Radio! I'm your host, Lonnie Scott! This episode features Connor Randall! Connor is a great guy who's done more Paranormal Investigating than anyone I know.

In fact, Heimlich is the one who created the whole idea of Chaos Heathenry. It was a life saving ideology for me when I found it many years ago. Read my essay in the book and you'll understand more of why I say that. Heimlich and I cover a wide range of topics that include magic, spirits, runes, influences, possession, Odin, and more! You'll find something you love in Elhaz Ablaze's mastermind. You may even find something you hate, and that's okay with Heimlich too. Heimlich A. Laguz has been practicing magic – runic, chaos, and otherwise – since 1996, and has described itself as a Heathen since 1999. An INFJ personality, Laguz is motivated by an endless thirst for growth and mystery, typically with the intention of being able to thereby also support the growth and healing of others. Laguz’s academic and career foci lie in ar

That led me to Cyndi's Facebook group and blog. She's an amazing human being down excellent work.

Happy Halloween! Blessed Samhain & Good Winternights! Welcome to Weird Web Radio, I'm Lonnie Scott, and this is the very special episode for Halloween!

I start all my bonus audio sessions for Patreon members by asking my guests about what famous person's grave they would most like to visit, why they chose that person, and occasionally what they might do entering a cemetery and grave. You know, the really good Necromancy kind of stuff! I went through the archives and randomly chose those answers from former guests. I put it all together here for you to enjoy! The last guest on here is sharing a really fun story too!

Welcome to Weird Web Radio! I'm your host, Lonnie Scott! This episode features Ivo Dominguez Jr. This interview was really insightful. It's isn't often you get a chance to ask questions from a real elder in a respectable Pagan community.

Welcome to Weird Web Radio! I'm your host, Lonnie Scott. This episode features Chiron Armand. You may also know him simply as Khi. (Rhymes with Sky). This episode was a lot of fun. Khi and I are definitely kindred spirits. It was refreshing to talk to someone who is extremely skilled in his various traditions and see how much we have in common. The magical community really could be more of a community if we would all see this simple truth. That's my opinion. Khi goes in depth in all of his answers. Even the bonus audio is more like a Part Two of the whole discussion.  Khi's bio says, Chiron Armand, founder of Impact Shamanism, is an interdisciplinary artist and spirit-initiated shaman holding additional initiations in such New World traditions as Haitian Vodou (Houngan Asogwe), Brazilian Quimbanda (com licensa), and the Unnamed Path. He is a trained hoodoo root doctor in the Southern Conjure tradition and is the author of Deliverance!: Hoodoo Spells of Uncrossing, Healing, and Protection and Clearing Spaces:
