Hour 1: Crowleys wonder what the argument is for the Steelers keeping Mike Tomlin going forward. Who mismanaged the end of the Pittsburgh-Cincy game from this weekend? And could Tomlin get traded this offseason?

The Fan Morning Show: January 6, 2025 full show. Hour 1: Crowleys wonder what the argument is for the Steelers keeping Mike Tomlin going forward. Who mismanaged the end of the Pittsburgh-Cincy game from this weekend? And could Tomlin get traded this offseason? Hour 2: Crowley says that Justin Fields should start this Saturday against the Ravens. Is Cher still alive? And Cam Heyward played against the Bengals while battling the flu. Hour 3: Crowley recaps the terrible weekend that George Pickens had. Crowley and Dom name the greatest invention of all time. And a lot of NFL coaches are about to get fired. Hour 4: Mark Kaboly joins the show for the final hour! Who should be blamed for the Steelers' struggles? The guys debate who should start at QB for Pittsburgh this weekend. And what happens if the Steelers' defense has another poor start on Saturday?

Join us on the road at Wachusett Mountain in Princeton as we sit down with their public relations manager, Chris Stimpson. Chris talks about growing up surrounded by the family business of running the mountain and what it's like as the third generation of Crowleys take a more prominent role in operations. Chris also reflects on the legacy of his late uncle, David Crowley, and how they are honoring his memory this season while continuing to raise awareness about PSP. Chris also touches on the number of upgrades and improvements you'll experience now that the mountain is open for the season, how the mountain played a prominent role in a recent Hallmark Christmas film, and mentions a number of upcoming events you don't want to miss.   #podcast #podcaster #podcastshow #podcastlove #businesspodcast #newpodcast #podcastnetwork #podcastcommunity #applepodcasts #spotifypodcast #podernfamily #podbean #newepisode #insidenorthcentralma #insidenorthcentralmassachusettspodcast #mylocalma #visitma #massachusettspodcast #massachusetts #northcentralmassachusetts #wachusettmtn #wachusettmountain #polar #princeton #davidcrowley #skimass #ski #snowboard

Den tillbakadragne poeten Fernando Pessoa och den excentriske äventyraren, poeten och ockultisten Aleister Crowley hade inte mycket gemensamt på ytan. Så varför träffades de? Henrik Nilsson berättar. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Den här essän sändes första gången 2020.Några mil utanför Lissabon finns ett dramatiskt kustlandskap som kallas Boca do Inferno, Djävulsmunnen. Här slår och skummar Atlantens vågor mot klipporna, och vattenmassorna dånar i de underjordiska grottorna. En lång rad olyckor och självmord har ägt rum vid dessa stup genom åren. Det inte alla vet är att Boca do Inferno en gång i tiden också var skådeplatsen för en märklig episod som innefattar två huvudgestalter i mellankrigstidens avantgardistiska och ockultistiska strömningar. I vissa avseenden var de varandras diametrala motsatser: Den reserverade och melankoliske poeten Fernando Pessoa, vars liv till det yttre inte var särskilt dramatiskt. Och den excentriske magikern och författaren Aleister Crowley, som levde ett liv fullt av erotiska eskapader och bisarra utsvävningar.Det var det gemensamma intresset för ockultism och astrologi som ledde fram till den osannolika kontakten mellan Pessoa och Crowley. Under många år gjorde Pessoa horoskop över de mest skilda personligheter i historien och i sin egen samtid – från diktare som Lord Byron och Goethe till diktatorer som Mussolini och Salazar. Men också över de olika fiktiva författarjag som han själv skapade, Pessoas så kallade heteronymer. När han vid ett tillfälle läste den första delen av engelsmannens självbiografiska bok The Confessions of Aleister Crowley upptäckte han att det horoskop som stod tryckt på en av de första sidorna var felaktigt uträknat. I ett brev till förlaget The Mandrake Press påpekade den internationellt helt okände Pessoa misstaget – och fick då ett tacksamt svar från Crowley själv. Det blev början på en oregelbunden kontakt som skulle vara i nästan ett och ett halvt år.Under lång tid var inte alla delar av den här historien kända för allmänheten, eftersom de efterlämnade breven och manuskripten i Lissabon – till skillnad från resten av Pessoas kvarlåtenskap – var i privat ägo. Men 2008 förvärvade staten dokumenten i en uppmärksammad auktion. Litteraturvetaren Steffen Dix har samlat allt material i en portugisisk volym under titeln O Mistério da Boca do Inferno (Mysteriet vid Boca do Inferno). Här finns brevväxlingarna och tidningsklippen från den tiden – men också det ofullständiga manus till en kriminalhistoria på engelska med titeln The Mouth of Hell som Pessoa skrev inspirerad av händelserna. Och som i likhet med nästan allting av den portugisiske författaren aldrig publicerades under hans livstid.Tidigt under deras brevväxling dyker tanken på ett personligt möte upp. Det är Crowley som är den pådrivande kraften, medan den mer tillbakadragne Pessoa förhåller sig avvaktande till planerna. Crowley vill av flera olika personliga skäl fly utomlands under en tid. I breven diskuterar han möjligheterna att öppna en sorts filial i Lissabon till en av sina hemliga ordnar. Pessoa vill å sin sida övertala Crowleys förlag att börja ge ut portugisiska verk, däribland en del av hans egna dikter.Den 2 september 1930 anländer till slut Aleister Crowley till Lissabons hamn, tillsammans med sin nittonåriga älskarinna Hanni Jaeger. Pessoa tar emot dem på kajen, och Crowley beskriver honom senare i sin dagbok som ”en mycket trevlig man”. Någon språkbarriär fanns inte; Pessoa hade lärt sig engelska under skolgången i Sydafrika och använde det ofta i sitt arbete som frilansande översättare av affärsbrev. Ibland skrev han också egna dikter direkt på engelska.Under några dagar ägnar sig Crowley och Jaeger åt strandliv i Estoril utanför huvudstaden. Men de praktiserar också så kallad ”sexuell magi” med en sådan livlighet att hotelledningen till slut ber dem att flytta. Mitt i turbulensen flyr den unga tyskan Jaeger på egen hand in till Lissabon. Vad Aleister Crowley gör under de följande dagarna har aldrig riktigt klarlagts. Men snart hittas ett brev under ett cigarettetui vid Boca do Inferno – Djävulsmunnen – där Crowley har skrivit till Hanni Jaeger: ”Jag kan inte leva utan dig. Det andra ”Boca do Inferno” kommer att ta mig – det kommer inte att vara lika hett som ditt!” Det är en journalist vid namn Augusto Ferreira Gomes som har hittat meddelandet. Av en händelse råkar han också vara en av Fernando Pessoas närmsta vänner.Aleister Crowley är spårlöst försvunnen. Allt tyder på att han faktiskt har tagit sitt liv vid Boca do Inferno. Nyheten får stor uppmärksamhet i Portugal och når också den internationella pressen. Pessoa medverkar i polisförhör och skriver artiklar om händelsen – utan att avslöja att han i själva verket haft en del i vad som egentligen är ett excentriskt upptåg. Ett upptåg som gnistrar av humor och ironi – och där såväl Crowley som Pessoa får användning för sina gäckande masker. För snart dyker ockultisten livs levande upp i Paris och Berlin. Den engelske magikern fortsätter sitt utsvävande och skandalösa liv, och blir efter sin död en omhuldad gestalt i olika subkulturer.Vad kan allt detta ha betytt för Fernando Pessoa? Mötena med Aleister Crowley och episoden vid Boca do Inferno måste ha varit en tumultartad händelse i hans – åtminstone till det yttre – stillsamma liv. Jag föreställer mig att det hade en både uppiggande och något besvärande inverkan på honom; som när en clown oväntat dyker upp och vill att man ska bistå i ett underhållningsnummer. En av de mindre kända aspekterna av Pessoas mångfacetterade person var hans intresse för kriminallitteratur. Men till skillnad från många av vår tids deckarförfattare var det inte de politiska och sociala omständigheterna kring brottet som intresserade honom – utan själva pusselläggandet, tankearbetet som leder fram till gåtans lösning. Den här sidan kommer till uttryck i Pessoas egna, ofullständiga försök i deckargenren – framför allt då i The Mouth of Hell. Men snart övergav han projektet. På sätt och vis kan man säga att han hade viktigare saker för sig. Istället skulle hans halvheteronym Bernardo Soares aktiveras på nytt, bokhållarbiträdet på Rua dos Douradores som skriver sin Orons bok under ensamma timmar på kontoret.Pessoa och Crowley fortsätter att växla en del brev, men Pessoa svarar med allt längre fördröjning, och till slut inte alls. Det finns anteckningar som tyder på att han betraktade Crowleys överdrifter med en viss skepsis. Men de stora skillnaderna till trots fanns det också underliggande beröringspunkter. De delade en dragning åt mystifikationer och iscensättningar; det var bara det att Pessoas lekar och förklädnader helt och hållet ägde rum inne i språket. ”Poeten är en som låtsas” skriver han i en dikt.Med tiden måste händelserna vid Boca do Inferno ha tett sig alltmer avlägsna för honom. Hälsan försämrades av en tilltagande alkoholkonsumtion och 1935, fem år efter mötena med Aleister Crowley och Hanni Jaeger går Fernando Pessoa bort, fyrtiosju år gammal. Ännu kommer många år förflyta innan vidden och djupet av hans författarskap går upp för omvärlden. De sista orden han skriver på sin dödsbädd är på engelska: ”I know not what tomorrow will bring.”Henrik Nilsson, författare och essäistKällor:Fernando Pessoa (red.

For the past 19 years, he's written a snowsports column from Thanksgiving to April. For the past three years, he's joined me on The Storm Skiing Podcast to discuss that column, but also to talk all things New England skiing (and beyond). You should follow Shaun on social media to stay locked into his work:Why I interviewed himLast month, I clicked open a SNOWBOARDER email newsletter and found this headline slotted under “trending news”:Yikes, I thought. Not again. I clicked through to the story. In full:Tensions simmered as disgruntled Stevens Pass skiers, clutching their "Epic Passes," rallied against Vail Resorts' alleged mismanagement. The discontent echoed through an impassioned petition, articulating a litany of grievances: excessive lift lines, scant open terrain, inadequate staffing, and woeful parking, painting a dismal portrait of a beloved winter haven.Fueled by a sense of betrayal, the signatories lamented a dearth of ski-ready slopes despite ample snowfall, bemoaning Vail Resorts' purported disregard for both patrons and employees. Their frustration soared at the stark contrast to neighboring ski areas, thriving under similar conditions.The petition's fervor escalated, challenging the ethics of selling passes without delivering promised services, highlighting derisory wages juxtaposed against corporate profiteering. The collective call-to-action demanded reparation, invoking consumer protection laws and even prodding the involvement of the Attorney General and the U.S. Forest Service.Yet, amidst their resolve, a poignant melancholy pervaded—the desire to relish the slopes overshadowed by a battle for justice. The signatories yearned for equitable winter joys, dreaming of swift resolutions and an end to the clash with corporate giants, vowing to safeguard the legacy of snow sports for generations to come.As the petition gathered momentum, a snowstorm of change loomed on the horizon, promising either reconciliation or a paradigm shift in the realm of winter recreation.The “impassioned petition” in question is dated Dec. 28, 2021. In the nearly two intervening years, Vail Resorts has fired Stevens Pass' GM, brought in a highly respected local (Tom Fortune) who had spent decades at the ski area to stabilize things (Fortune and I discussed this at length on the podcast), and installed a new, young GM (Ellen Galbraith), with deep roots in the area (I also hosted Galbraith on the podcast). Last ski season (2022-23), was a smooth one at Stevens Pass. And while Skier Mob is never truly happy with anything, the petition in question flared, faded, and went into hibernation approximately 18 months before Snowboarder got around to this story. Yes, there were issues at Stevens Pass. Vail fixed them. The end.The above-cited story is also overwritten, under-contextualized, and borderline slanderous. “Derisory wages?” Vail has since raised its minimum wage to $20 an hour. To stand there and aim a scanny-beepy thing at skiers as they approach the lift queue. Sounds like hell on earth.Perhaps I missed the joke here, and this is some sort of snowy Onion. I do hate to call out other writers. But this is a particularly lazy exhibit of the core problem with modern snowsports writing: most of it is not very good. The non-ski media will humor us with the occasional piece, but these tend to be dumbed down for a general audience. The legacy ski media as a functioning editorial entity no longer exists. There are just a few holdouts, at newspapers across the country, telling the local story of skiing as best they can.And in New England, one of the best doing his best to produce respectable snowsports writing is Shaun Sutner.What we talked aboutNew England resort-hopping; how to set and meet a season ski-days goal; Brobots hate safety bars; the demise and resurgence of Black Mountain, New Hampshire; why Magic Mountain works; what it means that Ski Ward was the first ski area in America to open for the 2023-24 ski season; the Uphill New England pass; why Vail and Alterra still offer free uphill access at all their New England ski areas; how to not be an uphill A-hole; the No Boundaries Pass; which passes New England's remaining big independent ski areas could join; the proposed Stowe-Smuggs gondola connection; when development benefits the environment; could Vail buy Smuggs?; the Little Cottonwood Canyon gondola; finally replacing the Attitash triple; Vail's New England lift-building surge; Boyne goes bonkers in New England; the new Barker lift at Sunday River; the West Mountain expansion at Sugarloaf; the South Peak expansion at Loon; New England's chairlift renaissance; Black Quad at Magic; a Cannon tram upgrade; Berkshire East's first high-speed lift; Wachusett lift upgrades; and Quebec's secret snow pocket.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewSutner and I have this conversation every Thanksgiving week, which is when his column launches. I think I need to start scheduling it earlier, because I haven't been able to turn this around so fast the past two seasons. Here are excerpts and links to his first few columns of the 2023-24 ski season:Nov. 23Snow sports: Ski resort lift upgrades should boost industry in New EnglandThe most despised lift in New England ski country is no more.The ponderously slow, sometimes treacherous summit triple chair at Attitash that has long been a staple of hardcore Massachusetts skiers and snowboarders, is gone."No one ever thought this was ever going to really happen," Brandon Swartz, general manager of the Mount Washington Valley classic ski area in Bartlett, New Hampshire, told me. "I just couldn't be more excited to help build the lift that no one ever thought was going to get built."Whether the old summit lift's swift new replacement, the high-speed detachable Mountaineer quad, will be ready for Christmas week as Colorado-based owner Vail Resorts expects, is yet to be seen as Attitash is still furiously working on it in the eighth month of the project. But it's the most welcome ski-lift replacement in our region in decades, I think, finally providing convenient access to the passel of glorious snaking steep and challenging intermediate runs from the top in half the 16-18-minute ride time of the old 1986 triple. Read more…Nov. 29'It was shocking and beautiful': Trip to Argentina, Antarctica memorable for Lunenburg's RiddleThis wasn't Riddle's first time tackling demanding backcountry terrain in forbidding terrain, nor is this the first time I've written about him, having chronicled his previous trips to Chamonix in the French Alps and Norway. Riddle is the guy who got me into alpine touring – the Alpine-Nordic hybrid that involves hiking up mountains on skis with climbing skins affixed to the bases and then removing the skins and locking down the boot heels for the descent – seven or eight years ago. He's also won the Wachusett Mountain pond skim contest three times, leading to word on the street that he's been banned from taking that coveted title ever again.But this adventure was of a bigger order of magnitude than his previous ventures into big mountains. Read more…Dec. 6New BOA ski boot hopes its unique fit will provide a leg up on competitionNo, it's not named after a boa constrictor, though it does wrap around your foot kind of like a snake.BOA stands for "boot opening adjustment" and it's the trademarked brand name of the company that has made the lace and wire and dial adjust-based closure systems since 2001 and adapted them to snowboard and race bike boots, Nordic gear, ice and in-line skates and other applications,Now BOA has brought the system to Alpine ski boots. Oversized protruding knobs and an intricate wire system go over the forefoot instead of buckles and wrap the instep and can make micro-adjustments in either direction – tighter or looser. Proponents say they just fit better, while skeptics point out they're a bit heavier and their durability still hasn't been proven on a wide scale yet for the Alpine version. Read more…His column lands every Wednesday through spring.What I got wrongAbout Magic Mountain, VermontI said that Magic was out of business for “five years.” The best info I can find (on New England Ski History), suggests that the ski area closed following the 1990-91 season, and didn't re-open until December 1997, which would put the closure at closer to six-and-a-half years.About the Indy PassI referred to Erik Mogensen as the “Indy Pass founder.” He is the pass' current owner, but Doug Fish, who has joined me on the podcast many times, founded the product.About SaddlebackI didn't hear Sutner correctly when he asked if Saddleback was “a B corporation,” which is a business that “is meeting high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.” I thought he'd asked if they were owned by a larger corporation, and my answer reflects that understanding (but does not answer his question), as I go into the history of Arctaris Impact Fund's purchase of Saddleback. The only ski area that has achieved B Corporation certification, as far as I know, is Taos.About words being hardI described Vail and Alterra as “big, corporate conglomerations.” Which, I'm sorry.About there being too many things in this world to keep track ofI forgot the name of Spruce Peak at Stowe when describing the ski area's connection point with Smugglers' Notch. Which is funny because I've written about it extensively over the past several months, skied there many times, and in general try to remember the important components of prominent ski areas.About my personal calendarI said that I skied at Big Sky “last year.” I meant “last season,” as I actually was there in April 2023.On time being fungibleI said that Magic's Black Quad has been sitting in the ski area's parking lot for “about four years.” This is inaccurate for a couple different reasons. First, the lift – Stratton's old Snow Bowl lift – came out in 2018 (so more than five years ago). I don't know when Magic took delivery of the lift. At any rate, installation began several years ago, so it's not accurate to say that the lift has been “sitting in the parking lot.” What I meant was that it's taken Magic a hell of a long time to get this machine live, which no one can dispute.Podcast NotesOn motorcycle helmet lawsWe briefly discuss the almost universal shift to wearing helmets while skiing in the context of motorcycle helmet laws, which are not as ubiquitous as you'd suppose. Only 18 states require all riders to wear helmets at all times. The remainder set an age limit – typically 18 or 21. Three states – Iowa, Illinois, and New Hampshire – have no helmet law at all.On non-profit ski areasErik Mogensen, owner of Entabeni Systems and Indy Pass, is leading the coalition to find a new owner for Black Mountain, New Hampshire. He's said many times that around a quarter of America's ski areas need “another ownership solution.” He expanded on this in SAM a few weeks back:I think about 25 percent of the non-corporate ski areas in North America need another ownership solution. That doesn't necessarily mean that it needs to be nonprofit. There are a lot of liabilities in having a group of volunteers or board of directors try to run a ski area from a nonprofit status. I'm definitely a capitalist, and there can be issues with nonprofits that I don't think we've solved yet in skiing.If we look at the nonprofits that have run very well, Bridger Bowl and Bogus Basin particularly, they focused around running the ski area as a for-profit business with a nonprofit backend, if you will.I've also seen a lot of ski areas struggle with trying to run the nonprofit model. So I don't necessarily believe that a nonprofit model is something that we should copy and paste. But I do believe it's a front runner that needs to be adjusted and adopted. And we do need a solution for the 25 percent. It's very hard to make some of areas commercially viable on their own.On the “unfriendly” lift attendants at Ski WardI recently gave Ski Ward some positive run, highlighting the fact that they were the first ski area to open in America in 2023. It was a cool story and they deserved the attention.However, I have a conflicted history with this place, as Sutner and I joked on the podcast. I had one of my worst ski experiences ever there, mostly because the lift attendants – at least on the day of my visit – were complete a******s. As I wrote after a visit on Feb. 1, 2022:Ski Ward, 25 miles southwest, makes Nashoba Valley look like Aspen. A single triple-chair rising 220 vertical feet. A T-bar beside that. Some beginner surface lifts lower down. Off the top three narrow trails that are steep for approximately six feet before leveling off for the run-out back to the base. It was no mystery why I was the only person over the age of 14 skiing that evening.Normally my posture at such community- and kid-oriented bumps is to trip all over myself to say every possible nice thing about its atmosphere and mission and miraculous existence in the maw of the EpKonasonics. But this place was awful. Like truly unpleasant. My first indication that I had entered a place of ingrained dysfunction was when I lifted the safety bar on the triple chair somewhere between the final tower and the exit ramp and the liftie came bursting out of his shack like he'd just caught me trying to steal his chickens. “The sign is there,” he screamed, pointing frantically at the “raise bar here” sign jutting up below the top station just shy of unload. At first I didn't realize he was talking to me and so I ignored him and this offended him to the point where he – and this actually happened – stopped the chairlift and told me to come back up the ramp so he could show me the sign. I declined the opportunity and skied off and away and for the rest of the evening I waited until I was exactly above his precious sign before raising the safety bar.All night, though, I saw this b******t. Large, aggressive, angry men screaming – screaming – at children for this or that safety-bar violation. The top liftie laid off me once he realized I was a grown man, but it was too late. Ski Ward has a profoundly broken customer-service culture, built on bullying little kids on the pretext of lift safety. Someone needs to fix this. Now.Look, I am not anti-lift bar. I put it down every time, unless I am out West and riding with some version of Studly Bro who is simply too f*****g cool for such nonsense. But that was literally my 403rd chairlift ride of the season and my 2,418th since I began tracking ski stats on my Slopes app in 2018. Never have I been lectured over the timing of my safety-bar raise. So I was surprised. But if Ski Ward really wants to run their chairlifts with the rulebook specificity of a Major League Baseball game, all they have to do is say, “Excuse me, Sir, can you please wait to get to the sign before raising your bar next time?” That would have worked just as well, and would have saved them this flame job. For a place that caters to children, they need to do much, much better.On Uphill New EnglandWe go pretty deep on the purpose and utility of the Uphill New England pass, which allows you to skin up and ski down these 13 ski areas:On the Granite Backcountry AllianceSutner also mentions the Granite Backcountry Alliance, which is a group that promotes backcountry skiing in New Hampshire and Western Maine. Here's the group's self-described mission:New Hampshire and Western Maine are blessed with a rich ski history that includes a deep heritage of backcountry skiing from Mt. Washington's Tuckerman Ravine to the many ski trails developed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) of the 1930's (some of which still remain today). The celebration of the sport of skiing is embedded in the culture of the area.While backcountry skiing's resurgence has captivated a new user base, it is also now a measurable, undeniable force in the industry and is the fastest growing segment of the sport. The demand is strong but the terrain in New Hampshire and Western Maine is limited by the tree density, glade supply, and legal access to the forests and mountains.GBA resolves to improve the playing field for backcountry skiers. Creating and developing ski glades, however, is not the only objective of the group. Improving the foundation of the sport is critical to future success, such as creating partnerships and collaboration with public and private landowners, education regarding safety and ecological awareness, and creating a unified culture – one that respects the land and its owners and does not permit unauthorized cutting.We are part of a movement of human-powered activities that is the basis for an emerging outdoor economy. We believe this movement has broad implications on areas like NH's North Country and it can develop with committed folks like yourself .  It's the last frontier!  So join us by stepping up to support the cause; the ability to organize is a powerful tool to steward our own future.On the proposed Stowe-Smuggs gondola connectionI wrote a bit about the proposed gondola connection between Stowe and Smugglers' Notch earlier this year:Seated just a half mile from the top of Smuggs' mainly intermediate Sterling Mountain is the top of Stowe's Spruce Peak. Skiers had been skating between the two resorts for decades. Why not connect the two mountains – both widely considered among the best ski areas in New England – with a fast, modern lift? A sort of Alta-Snowbird – or at least a Solitude-Brighton – of the East? Two owners, one interconnected ski experience.“We have the possibility of creating what we think will be a very unique ski and riding experience by connecting these two resorts,” said Stritzler. “I don't believe in marketing this way, but all you have to do is do trail counts and acreage and elevations, and pretty soon you get to the conclusion that if you can offer Smugglers' guests the opportunity to also take advantage of what Stowe has to offer, and you can offer the two in some kind of combination through a connecting lift, well, now suddenly you're not quite so nervous about all the consolidation taking place, because you've got something to respond with.”Here's the proposed line:Smuggs later withdrew their plans amid a cool reception from state officials. Resort officials are recalibrating their strategy in backrooms, they've told me, re-analyzing the project from an economic-impact point of view. More to come on that.On the Little Cottonwood Canyon gondolaWithout question, the most contentious ski-related development in North America right now is the proposed Little Cottonwood Canyon gondola, which would essentially remove most cars from a cluttered, avalanche-prone road and move the resort base area down below the major snowline. Various protest groups, however, are acting as though this is a proposal to bulldoze the mountains and replace them private mud baths for billionaires. Personally, I think the gondola makes a hell of a lot of sense:But every time I write about it on Twitter, a not-immaterial number of perfectly sane individuals advises me to f**k off and die, so I'd say there's some emotion invested in this one.On the Attitash triple replacementSutner and I go pretty deep on Attitash swapping out its Summit Triple chair for a brand-new high-speed quad. I also discussed this extensively with Attitash GM Brandon Swartz on a recent podcast episode (starting at 6:12):On Ski Inc.We touch briefly on Ski Inc., a fantastic history of the modern ski industry by the late Chris Diamond. If you like this newsletter, Ski Inc. and its sequel, Ski Inc. 2020, are must-reads.On Wachusett's liftsWe discuss Wachusett's proposed upgrade of the Polar Express from a high-speed quad to, perhaps, a six-pack. Here's the trailmap for context:On Wachusett's blocked expansionDespite its immense popularity, Wachusett is probably stuck in its current footprint indefinitely, as Sutner and I discuss. A bit more context from New England Ski History:As the 1993-94 season progressed, Wachusett pushed forward with its expansion plans, requesting to cut two new trails, widen Balance Rock, install a second chairlift to the summit, expand the base lodge, and add 375 parking spots. The plans were met with environmental, archaeological, and water quality concerns. …In August 1995, environmentalists located a stand of 295-year-old oak trees where Wachusett had planned to cut a new expert trail. Though the Crowleys quickly offered to adjust plans to minimize impact, opposition mounted. Plans for the new trail were abandoned a few months later. …In the spring of 1998, Wachusett proposed a scaled back expansion that avoided the old growth forest and instead called for the construction of a snowboard park consisting of two trails and a lift. Around this time, environmentalists announced the discovery of bootleg ski trails on the mountain. The Sierra Club quickly called for the state to terminate Wachusett Mountain Associates' ski area lease, despite not knowing who did the cutting.So, yeah, 99 problems, Man.On two Le Massifs (de Charlevoix and de Sud)So apparently there are two Le Massifs in Quebec, which would have been handy context to have when I wrote about the larger of the two joining the Mountain Collective last year. That Le Massif – Le Massif de Charlevoix – is quite the banger, with 250 inches of average annual snowfall and a 2,526-foot vertical drop on 406 acres:Massif de Sud is still a nice little hill, with 236 inches of average annual snowfall and a 1,312-foot vertical drop, but on just 127 skiable acres:On The Powell MovementSutner mentions an upcoming column he'll write about The Powell Movement podcast. It really is a terrific show, and covers the parts of the ski industry that I ignore (so, like, most of it). Check it out.The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law, love is the law, love under will, there is no law beyond Do what thou wilt Aleister Crowley died in 1947 at the age of seventy-two, he was cremated, and he left behind a philosophy that'd change occult circles forever. For twenty years after his death, his name and his voluminous writings remained for the most part undiscovered by many, then, on June 1st 1967, Crowleys face emerged, peering out at us from between the faces of Indian holy man Swami Sri Yukteswar and sex goddess Mae West, yes, I'm referring to the Beatles' album cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The cover art was the creation of artist Peter Blake, but the inclusion of Aleister Crowley was because John Lennon “liked” the poetry of the “wickedest man in the world”. I am not in any way suggesting that the Beatles gave rise to the popularity in Crowley in occult circles, what I am saying however, is that those, and their contemporaries, were among the first to react to a dramatic shift in human consciousness. What I'm saying, with regards to shifting human consciousness is not a new concept, the ancients believed in ages, such as the Golden Age, when humanity walked with the gods, or the Dark Age, when the gods abandoned us. Hindus believe in ages called Yugas, wherein there's the rise and fall of cycles over thousands of millennia as our entire solar system careens around the galactic center in a huge elliptical orbit. Astrologers relate it to the zodiac, wherein we've left the Age of Pisces into the Age of Aquarius. But Crowley, he believed in Aeons, such as the Aeon of Isis, which was when mankind worshipped a great goddess, symbolized through Isis, then into the Aeon of Osiris, wherein mankind worshipped a singular male God, symbolized through Osiris, however, Thelemites now believe we're in the Aeon of Horus, the individualistic Crowned and Conquering Child god, in this Aeon, Thelemites believe that humanity shall leave behind the supposed tyranny of Abrahamic religions and enter a time of greater consciousness and self-actualization. Now you may ask why I've said all this, well this information illustrates the root point of understanding this religion, which is that over the past hundred or so years there has been a profound transfiguration in human consciousness, and now we're all functioning at a completely new level than we used to, and that religion I refer to… is Thelema. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thoughtrebellion/support

Aleister Crowley, også kendt som The Beast 666, blev i sin samtid kaldt verdens ondeste mand. Han var en ledende skikkelse inden for 1900-tallets okkultisme og havde sin egen sataniske sekt på Sicilien, hvor der blev eksperimenteret med stoffer og sex, og hvor der gik rygter om, at han og hans kvindelige disciple filede deres tænder ned, så de kunne suge blod af hinanden. Men Crowley var også en tænker, digter og forfatter – en vanvittig provokatør og formentlig uden at vide det, tog han fat på ungdomsoprøret et halvt århundrede før tid. Han har ikke kun haft en stærk indflydelse på nyreligiøse bevægelser, men også på populærkulturen. The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Iron Maiden, TOOL var og er inspireret af ham. Rebelsk og grænseløs som han var, stod han som et frihedssymbol for mange. Hvad der er mindre kendt er, at Crowley også var en dygtig bjergbestiger og faktisk forsøgte at blive først på både K2 og Kangchenjunga.Vært: Bjørn Harvig.

The Crowleys...

Chad Crowley firmly believes that for those who want to get into dairy or farming in general, grazing is the way to go. That route has certainly gone well for him. He was told many times that he couldn't find success in farming because he didn't grow up on one, but today he and his wife Melissa farm in southeast Minnesota as part of Enchanted Meadows Farms. Enchanted Meadows is an organic, pasture-based dairy in La Crescent. The Crowleys were hired by owners Art and Jean Thicke in the early 2000's. After prior experience working at a high-production dairy, the grazing dairy model allowed for the lifestyle that Chad and Melissa were looking for. They stayed on for several years, and the Thickes began gifting them calves to “build sweat equity” in the farm business. If they ever left Enchanted Meadows, their growing herd could move on with them. Twelve years in, the Thickes concretely initiated a farm transition, selling the Crowleys one of the farms and splitting ownership of the herd. “Don't let anyone tell you you can't do it,” says Chad. The four continue farming together, and good communication and planning has helped the partners through inevitable times of disagreements. Listen in as Chad Crowley offers a candid conversation on getting into farming and non-family farm transitions in this episode with Jared Luhman.     Chad Crowley, Enchanted Meadows Farms Jared Luhman, Soil Health Lead, SFA   If you've enjoyed this podcast, please consider supporting Dirt Rich and SFA's work by donating or becoming a member at www.sfa-mn.org.

It was on a Friday the 13th in late winter 1997 when John Crowley's life changed forever.  John and his wife Aileen had been noticing concerning symptoms in their infant daughter Megan for several months, and after a few rounds of testing she was diagnosed with a rare form of muscular dystrophy known as Pompe disease.  Doctors told the Crowleys their daughter likely only had a few years to live, an outlook that ultimately sparked John's remarkable efforts to find treatments for Megan as well as her younger brother Patrick, who was also struck with Pompe. His family's amazing journey was the inspiration for the movie Extraordinary Measures starring Brendan Fraser and Harrison Ford.  Join host Shiv Gaglani in this captivating and inspiring conversation with Crowley, now the Executive Chairman at Amicus Therapeutics, to learn about how he and his team are shedding light on some of the rarest diseases in the world, the promise of new technology in genetics, and the need for an Operation Warp Speed to develop rare disease treatments.  As Crowley puts it, “We can beat nature, we think, in the years and decades ahead. We just oftentimes have to beat time.”Mentioned in this episode: https://amicusrx.com/

Den tillbakadragne poeten Fernando Pessoa och den excentriske äventyraren, poeten och ockultisten Aleister Crowley hade inte mycket gemensamt på ytan. Så varför träffades de? Henrik Nilsson berättar. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Den här essän sändes första gången 2020.Några mil utanför Lissabon finns ett dramatiskt kustlandskap som kallas Boca do Inferno, Djävulsmunnen. Här slår och skummar Atlantens vågor mot klipporna, och vattenmassorna dånar i de underjordiska grottorna. En lång rad olyckor och självmord har ägt rum vid dessa stup genom åren. Det inte alla vet är att Boca do Inferno en gång i tiden också var skådeplatsen för en märklig episod som innefattar två huvudgestalter i mellankrigstidens avantgardistiska och ockultistiska strömningar. I vissa avseenden var de varandras diametrala motsatser: Den reserverade och melankoliske poeten Fernando Pessoa, vars liv till det yttre inte var särskilt dramatiskt. Och den excentriske magikern och författaren Aleister Crowley, som levde ett liv fullt av erotiska eskapader och bisarra utsvävningar.Det var det gemensamma intresset för ockultism och astrologi som ledde fram till den osannolika kontakten mellan Pessoa och Crowley. Under många år gjorde Pessoa horoskop över de mest skilda personligheter i historien och i sin egen samtid från diktare som Lord Byron och Goethe till diktatorer som Mussolini och Salazar. Men också över de olika fiktiva författarjag som han själv skapade, Pessoas så kallade heteronymer. När han vid ett tillfälle läste den första delen av engelsmannens självbiografiska bok The Confessions of Aleister Crowley upptäckte han att det horoskop som stod tryckt på en av de första sidorna var felaktigt uträknat. I ett brev till förlaget The Mandrake Press påpekade den internationellt helt okände Pessoa misstaget och fick då ett tacksamt svar från Crowley själv. Det blev början på en oregelbunden kontakt som skulle vara i nästan ett och ett halvt år.Under lång tid var inte alla delar av den här historien kända för allmänheten, eftersom de efterlämnade breven och manuskripten i Lissabon till skillnad från resten av Pessoas kvarlåtenskap var i privat ägo. Men 2008 förvärvade staten dokumenten i en uppmärksammad auktion. Litteraturvetaren Steffen Dix har samlat allt material i en portugisisk volym under titeln O Mistério da Boca do Inferno (Mysteriet vid Boca do Inferno). Här finns brevväxlingarna och tidningsklippen från den tiden men också det ofullständiga manus till en kriminalhistoria på engelska med titeln The Mouth of Hell som Pessoa skrev inspirerad av händelserna. Och som i likhet med nästan allting av den portugisiske författaren aldrig publicerades under hans livstid.Tidigt under deras brevväxling dyker tanken på ett personligt möte upp. Det är Crowley som är den pådrivande kraften, medan den mer tillbakadragne Pessoa förhåller sig avvaktande till planerna. Crowley vill av flera olika personliga skäl fly utomlands under en tid. I breven diskuterar han möjligheterna att öppna en sorts filial i Lissabon till en av sina hemliga ordnar. Pessoa vill å sin sida övertala Crowleys förlag att börja ge ut portugisiska verk, däribland en del av hans egna dikter.Den 2 september 1930 anländer till slut Aleister Crowley till Lissabons hamn, tillsammans med sin nittonåriga älskarinna Hanni Jaeger. Pessoa tar emot dem på kajen, och Crowley beskriver honom senare i sin dagbok som en mycket trevlig man. Någon språkbarriär fanns inte; Pessoa hade lärt sig engelska under skolgången i Sydafrika och använde det ofta i sitt arbete som frilansande översättare av affärsbrev. Ibland skrev han också egna dikter direkt på engelska.Under några dagar ägnar sig Crowley och Jaeger åt strandliv i Estoril utanför huvudstaden. Men de praktiserar också så kallad sexuell magi med en sådan livlighet att hotelledningen till slut ber dem att flytta. Mitt i turbulensen flyr den unga tyskan Jaeger på egen hand in till Lissabon. Vad Aleister Crowley gör under de följande dagarna har aldrig riktigt klarlagts. Men snart hittas ett brev under ett cigarettetui vid Boca do Inferno Djävulsmunnen där Crowley har skrivit till Hanni Jaeger: Jag kan inte leva utan dig. Det andra Boca do Inferno kommer att ta mig det kommer inte att vara lika hett som ditt! Det är en journalist vid namn Augusto Ferreira Gomes som har hittat meddelandet. Av en händelse råkar han också vara en av Fernando Pessoas närmsta vänner.Aleister Crowley är spårlöst försvunnen. Allt tyder på att han faktiskt har tagit sitt liv vid Boca do Inferno. Nyheten får stor uppmärksamhet i Portugal och når också den internationella pressen. Pessoa medverkar i polisförhör och skriver artiklar om händelsen utan att avslöja att han i själva verket haft en del i vad som egentligen är ett excentriskt upptåg. Ett upptåg som gnistrar av humor och ironi och där såväl Crowley som Pessoa får användning för sina gäckande masker. För snart dyker ockultisten livs levande upp i Paris och Berlin. Den engelske magikern fortsätter sitt utsvävande och skandalösa liv, och blir efter sin död en omhuldad gestalt i olika subkulturer.Vad kan allt detta ha betytt för Fernando Pessoa? Mötena med Aleister Crowley och episoden vid Boca do Inferno måste ha varit en tumultartad händelse i hans åtminstone till det yttre stillsamma liv. Jag föreställer mig att det hade en både uppiggande och något besvärande inverkan på honom; som när en clown oväntat dyker upp och vill att man ska bistå i ett underhållningsnummer. En av de mindre kända aspekterna av Pessoas mångfacetterade person var hans intresse för kriminallitteratur. Men till skillnad från många av vår tids deckarförfattare var det inte de politiska och sociala omständigheterna kring brottet som intresserade honom utan själva pusselläggandet, tankearbetet som leder fram till gåtans lösning. Den här sidan kommer till uttryck i Pessoas egna, ofullständiga försök i deckargenren framför allt då i The Mouth of Hell. Men snart övergav han projektet. På sätt och vis kan man säga att han hade viktigare saker för sig. Istället skulle hans halvheteronym Bernardo Soares aktiveras på nytt, bokhållarbiträdet på Rua dos Douradores som skriver sin Orons bok under ensamma timmar på kontoret.Pessoa och Crowley fortsätter att växla en del brev, men Pessoa svarar med allt längre fördröjning, och till slut inte alls. Det finns anteckningar som tyder på att han betraktade Crowleys överdrifter med en viss skepsis. Men de stora skillnaderna till trots fanns det också underliggande beröringspunkter. De delade en dragning åt mystifikationer och iscensättningar; det var bara det att Pessoas lekar och förklädnader helt och hållet ägde rum inne i språket. Poeten är en som låtsas skriver han i en dikt.Med tiden måste händelserna vid Boca do Inferno ha tett sig alltmer avlägsna för honom. Hälsan försämrades av en tilltagande alkoholkonsumtion och 1935, fem år efter mötena med Aleister Crowley och Hanni Jaeger går Fernando Pessoa bort, fyrtiosju år gammal. Ännu kommer många år förflyta innan vidden och djupet av hans författarskap går upp för omvärlden. De sista orden han skriver på sin dödsbädd är på engelska: I know not what tomorrow will bring.Henrik Nilsson, författare och essäistKällor:Fernando Pessoa (red.

Queens of the Mines paperback, ebook, and hardback novel now available on Amazon.    In this episode, we dive into the life of Isadora Duncan.   In How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, the film from 2003, Kate Hudson's character Andy dons a yellow diamond necklace in one scene that they call the “Isadora Diamond”. That $6 million 80-carat yellow diamond in the necklace was designed by Harry Winston and is named after Isadora Duncan. whose philosophy earned her the title of “the creator of modern dance”.   Angela Isadora Duncan, was born in San Francisco on May 26, 1877. The youngest of the four children of banker, mining engineer and connoisseur of the arts, Joseph Charles Duncan and Mary Isadora Gray. Soon after her birth, Joseph was caught embezzling from the two banks that he was hired to set up. He used the money to fund his private stock speculations. Joseph was lucky to avoid prison time. Her mother Mary left Joseph and moved the children to Oakland to find work as a seamstress and piano teacher. The family lived in extremely poor conditions in Oakland and Angela Isadora attended school until she was ten years old. School was too constricting for her and she decided to drop out. To make money for the family, Angela Isadora joined her three older siblings and began teaching dance to local children. She was not a classically trained dancer or ballerina. Her unique, novel approach to dance showed joy, sadness and fantasy, rediscovering the beautiful, rhythmical motions of the human body. Joseph remarried and started a new family, they all perished aboard the British passenger steamer SS Mohegan, which ran aground off the coast of the Lizard Peninsula of Cornwall England on the 14th of October in 1898. Only 91 out of 197 on board survived.  Eventually, Angela Isadora went east to audition for the theater. In Chicago, she auditioned for Augustin Daly, who was one of the most influential men in American theater during his lifetime. She secured a spot in his company, which took her to New York City. In New York, she took classes with American Ballet dancer Marie Bonfanti. The style clashed with her unique vision of dance. Her earliest public appearances back east met with little success. Angela Isadora was not interested in ballet, or the popular pantomimes of the time; she soon became cynical of the dance scene. She was 21 years old, unhappy and unappreciated in New York, Angela Isadora boarded a cattle boat for London in 1898. She sought recognition in a new environment with less of a hierarchy. When she arrived, ballet was at one of its lowest ebbs and tightrope walkers and contortionists were dominating their shared music hall stages. Duncan found inspiration in Greek art, statues and architecture. She favored dancing barefoot with her hair loose and wore flowing toga wrapped scarves while dancing, allowing her freedom of movement. The attire was in contrast to the corsets, short tutus and stiff pointe shoes her audience was used to. Under the name Isadora Duncan, she gave recitals in the homes of the elite. The pay from these productions helped Isadora rent a dance studio, where she choreographed a larger stage performance that she would soon take to delight the people of France.  Duncan met Desti in Paris and they became best friends. Desti would accompany Isadora as she found inspiration from the Louvre and the 1900 Paris Exposition where Loie Fuller, an American actress and dancer was the star attraction. Fuller was the first to use theatrical lighting technique with dance, manipulating gigantic veils of silk into fluid patterns enhanced by changing coloured lights.  In 1902, Duncan teamed up with Fuller to tour Europe. On tour, Duncan became famous for her distinctive style. She danced to Gluck, Wagner and Bach and even Beethoven's Seventh Symphony. Female audiences adored her despite the mixed reaction from the critics. She inspired the phenomenon of young women dancing barefoot, scantily clad as woodland nymphs who crowded theaters and concert halls throughout Europe. Contracts and the commercialization of the art while touring distracted Isadora from her goal, educating the young on her philosophy of dance. "Let us first teach little children to breathe, to vibrate, to feel, and to become one with the general harmony and movement. Let us first produce a beautiful human being. let them come forth with great strides, leaps and bounds, with lifted forehead and far-spread arms, to dance.” In 1904, she moved to Berlin to open the Isadora Duncan School of Dance. The school had around 20 students who mostly had mothers who were the primary breadwinners, and the fathers were either ill or absent. The school provided room and board for the students. For three years, her sister, Elizabeth Duncan was the main instructor, while Isadora was away, funding the school from tour. Elizabeth was not free spirited like her sister and taught in a strict manner. During the third year, Duncan had a child with theater designer Gordon Craig. Deirdre Beatrice, born September 24, 1906. At the school, Duncan created a new troupe of six young girls. Anna, Maria, Irma, Elizabeth, Margot, and Erica. The group was called the "Isadorables", a nickname given to them by the French poet Fernand Divoire. At the start of World War I, the Isadorables were sent to New York with the rest of the new students from Bellevue.  Occultist Aleister Crowley founded the religion of Thelema. He identified himself as the prophet entrusted with guiding humanity into the Æon of Horus in the early 20th century. Isadora and her bohemian companion Desti fell into his circle after meeting him at a party. Crowley fell in love with Desti and she became a member of Crowley's occult order.  Crowley published widely over the course of his life and wrote that Duncan "has this gift of gesture to a very high degree. Let the reader study her dancing, if possible in private than in public, and learn the superb 'unconsciousness' — which is magical consciousness — with which she suits the action to the melody." Duncan had a love affair with Paris Singer, one of the many sons of sewing machine magnate Isaac Singer. The fling resulted in a son, Patrick Augustus, born May 1, 1910. A year later, Isadora was dancing on tables until dawn at the Pavillon du Butard hunting lodge mansion in the gardens of Versailles. Paul Poiret, the French fashion designer and founder of the haute couture house, known to throw lavish parties, was recreating the roman festival Bacchanalia hosted by Louis XIV at Versailles. On the table in a Poiret Greek evening gown, Duncan tried to not knock over the 900 bottles of champagne that were consumed by the 300 guests. The following year Isadora acquired the Hôtel Paillard in Paris,  which she turned into her new temple of dance called Dionysion. Dionysion was the name of a poem  that Crowley  had published.   Which   maakes m e  curious  how far into Crowleys cult did Isaadora dive? On a rainy afternoon Annie Sims, Isadora's nanny, loaded the children into the car for a drive to meet Isadora in Versailles. Morverand, the chauffeur, had only just pulled onto the road, when a taxi-cab bolted towards the car. Morverand jammed on his brakes, causing the engine to also stop. He got out of the car to check the engine, and turned the starting lever and the car bounded forward towards the river, down the river bank and plunged down 30 feet into the Seine. Morverand was left standing on the street. In the downpour of rain, few were out and about. The only witness, a young woman who watched the car exit the gate then crash, ran back to Duncan's house. Augustine, Isadora's brother, was the  only one home. Augustine ran to the scene, seized Morverand by the throat and knocked him down on the bank. A crowd of boatmen stopped the fight and began looking for the sunken car. The search lasted an hour and a half. A motor boat that was dragging the river discovered the car, which was hauled to the surface, where the bodies of the nanny and Isadora's two small children were found inside. Two doctors made efforts to save them but there was no luck. Morverand gave himself up at the police commissary. He explained that he did not understand how the accident happened. All of Paris was sympathetic.  Isadora went through a depression while mourning her children, and spent several months on the Greek island of Corfu with her brother and sister. She then went for a stay at the Viareggio Seaside Resort in Italy, where she met the beautiful and rebellious actress Eleonora Duse. Duse wore men's clothing and was one of the first women in Italy to openly declare her queerness.  The two had a romantic fling in Italy yet Duncan was desperate for another child. She became pregnant  after begging the young sculptor Romano Romanelli, basically an Italian stranger to sleep with her. She gave birth to a son on August 13, 1914 but he died a few hours after birth. She immediately returned  to the States. Three months later Duncan was living in a townhouse in Gramercy Park in New York City. Dionysion was moved to Manhattan in a studio at 311 Fourth Avenue on the northeast corner of 23rd Street and Fourth Avenue. The area is now considered Park Avenue South. One month later, The Isadorables made their American debut on December 7, 1914 at Carnegie Hall with the New York Symphony.  Mabel Dodge, who owned an avant garde salon at 23 Fifth Avenue, the point of rendezvous for the whole of New York's of the time, described The Isadorables: "They were lovely, with bodies like cream and rose, and faces unreal with beauty whose eyes were like blind statues, as though they had never looked upon anything in any way sordid or ordinary". Duncan used the ultra modern Century Theater at West 60th Street and Central Park West for her performances and productions. The keys were gifted to Duncan by Otto Kahn, sometimes referred to as the "King of New York". Kahn was a German-born American, a well known investment banker, appearing on the cover of Time Magazine. He reorganized and consolidated railroads, was a philanthropist, a patron of the arts and served as the chairman of the Metropolitan Opera. Isadora, somehow, was evicted from the Century by the New York City Fire Department after one month. Duncan felt defeated and decided to once again leave the States to return to Europe to set up school in Switzerland. She planned to board the RMS Lusitania, but her financial situation at the time drove her to choose a more modest crossing. The Lusitania was sunk by a German U-boat 11 miles off the southern coast of Ireland, killing 1,198 passengers and crew.   During her voyage to Europe, Isadora discovered that their manager had arranged for a tour for the Isadorables without her. She was so upset that she stopped speaking to her students, despite the man's actions being completely out of their control. After struggling to keep afloat there, the school was dispelled and the younger students sent home to their families. The girls eventually made up with Duncan and in 1917 Isadora adopted all six Isadorables. Yet troubles ensued. The Isadorables were living in Long Island and Isadora urged them to leave New York. Each girl, except for Gretel, had fallen in love and did not wish to go. When Isadora found out her brother Augustine assisted the group in a performance at the Liberty Theater, she forbade them from continuing, producing a legal contract which prevented them from separating from her. They had no choice but to cancel their time at the Liberty. The girls eventually left Duncan a few years later but stayed together as a group for some time. While Duncan ran another school in Paris that was shortly closed due to World War I, the girls entertained troops in the US.  Isadora Duncan went against traditional cultural standards. Her scandalous love life as bisexual made her a controversial figure on the front pages of the papers. She was a feminist, a Darwinist, a Communist and an atheist. Her leftist sympathies took her to the Soviet Union at the end of the Russian Revolution. To her, it seemed to be the land of promise. Duncan opened a school in Moscow and Irma, one of the Isadorables, took the teaching position at the school while Isadora toured and performed. She met the poet Sergey Aleksandrovich Yesenin, eighteen years her junior in Russia and they were married in May of 1922, even though matrimony was against her beliefs. Together, they left for a US tour. Fear of the “Red Menace” was at its height in North America, and the couple was unjustly labeled as Bolshevik agents.  On tour in Boston, she waved a red scarf and bared her breast on stage in Boston, proclaiming, "This is red! So am I!" For this, her American citizenship was revoked. As she left the country, Duncan bitterly told reporters: “Good-bye America, I shall never see you again!” Yesenin's increasing mental instability turned him against her and they were ultimately unhappy. He returned alone to the Soviet Union after the tour and committed suicide. Her spotlight was dimming, her fame dwindled. For a number of years she lived out public dramas of failed relationships, financial woes, and drunkenness on the Mediterranean and in Paris, running up debts at hotels. Her financial burdens were carried by a decreasing number of friends and supporters who encouraged her to write her autobiography. They believed the books success could support her extravagant waywardness. On September 14, 1927 in Nice, France Duncan was asked to go on a drive with the handsome French-Italian mechanic Benoît Falchetto in a sporting car made by the French Amilcar company. Desti sat with Isadora as she dressed for the occasion. Duncan put on a long, flowing, hand-painted silk scarf created by the Russian-born artist Roman Chatov. Desti asked her to instead wear a cape in the open-air vehicle because of the cold weather, but Isadora paid no mind. A cool breeze blew from the Riviera as the women met Falchetto at the Amilcar. The engine made a rumble as Falchetto put on his driving-goggles. Isadora threw the enormous scarf around her neck and hopped in. She turned to look at Desti and said "Adieu, mes amis. "Je vais à l'amour", "I am off to love'. They sped off and Isadora leaned back in her seat to enjoy the sea breeze. The wind caught her enormous scarf that, tragically, blew into the well of the rear wheel on the passenger side, wrapping around the open-spoked wheel and rear axle. Isadora was hurled from the open car in an extraordinary manner, breaking her neck and nearly decapitating her. Instantly killing her.  At the time of her death, Duncan was a Soviet citizen. Her will was the first Soviet citizen to undergo probate in the United States.  In medicine, the Isadora Duncan Syndrome refers to injury or death consequent to entanglement of neckwear with a wheel or other machinery. The accident gave rise to Gertrude Stein's mordant remark that “affectations can be dangerous.” Duncan was known as "The Mother of Dance" was cremated, and her ashes were placed in the columbarium at Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. On the headstone of her grave is inscribed École du Ballet de l'Opéra de Paris ("Ballet School of the Opera of Paris"). Duncan's autobiography My Life was published in 1927. The Australian composer Percy Grainger called it a "life-enriching masterpiece."  A plaque commemorating Isadora Duncan's place of birth is at 501 Taylor Street on Lower Nob Hill, fittingly near the Theater District in San Francisco. San Francisco renamed an alley on the same block from Adelaide Place to Isadora Duncan Lane. 

Kunst, sex, hedonisme og okkultisme er alle nøkkelord i livshistorien til Marjorie Cameron, kvinnen som etter hvert skulle identifisere seg selv med den thelemiske gudinnen Babalon. Cameron var et bindeledd mellom Crowleys okkultisme, 60-tallets kulturrevolusjon og vår egen tid. Etter å ha vokst opp i det idylliske Belle Plaine, vervet Marjorie seg til Marinen, hvor hun raskt steg i gradene.

The Storm Skiing Podcast is sponsored by Mountain Gazette - Listen to the podcast for discount codes on subscriptions and merch.WhoJeff Crowley, President of Wachusett Mountain, MassachusettsRecorded onNovember 29, 2021Why I interviewed himWhen the Crowleys showed up at “Mt. Wachusett Ski Area” in 1969, the place looked like any of the hundred-plus rinky-dink operations dotting the state at the time:Like subsistence farmers coaxing shoots from cracked earth in some pre-industrial past, Wachusett and its kin eked out a seasonal living. Simple operations powered by simple machines and whatever fell from the sky. Most failed. Wachusett thrived. Today, it looks like this:As I’ve written about other regionally beloved ski areas that persisted as their neighbors disappeared into the wilderness - Plattekill, Jiminy Peak - there was nothing inevitable about this. The Crowleys made it happen. Wachusett is not merely a survivor. It is one of the most successful ski areas in the country. Beloved and profitable, it hosts more than 400,000 annual skier visits on 130-ish acres. That’s only 50,000 fewer than 3,000-acre Whitefish. And yet, it works. The place is an absolute machine, every part of the experience optimized and streamlined, the relentless focus on one thing: to get as many people as possible skiing as much as possible.What we talked aboutWachusett ranked ahead of Stowe on Ski’s reader poll; opening weekend 2021; how a Massachusetts ski area beats so many larger, farther-north ski areas to open year after year; “we’re all crazy” at Wachusett; what the mountain looked like when the Crowleys showed up in 1969; the ski area’s Civilian Conservation Corps legacy; the oldest trail on the mountain; how Wachusett thrived as so many other Massachusetts ski areas failed; how a day skiing at Mount Snow inspired Ralph Crowley to buy Wachusett; how it feels when your dad buys a ski area; a cross-country adventure in lift installation; why Wachusett is likely to be a family-run operation for the foreseeable future; the Wachusett diaspora; the origins of Wa-Wa-Wachusett:…400,000-plus skier visits on a 130-acre ski area and the Wachusett MACHINE; climate-proofing the ski area; the irrepressible Worcester ski culture; the Wachusett you encounter will depend upon the time of day you show up; the importance of local ski journalism and what we lose when it fades; the vertical-drop and French fry battles between Berkshire East and Wachusett; how turmoil over old-growth forest near the mountain’s summit set the ski area’s modern footprint; why Wachusett doesn’t have marked glades; whether the ski area could ever lose its lease; what the ski area is considering as a replacement for its summit lift; sponsored chairlifts; why Wachusett installed a 300-vertical-foot high-speed quad; where the old Monadnock lift went; the Vickery Bowl expansion; whether the ski area could ever expand again; how Wachusett helps preserve land all over the state; why the mountain grooms twice per day; why the ski area will continue making snow into the end of March; beating Killington to open in 2020; that one time you could ski in May in Massachusetts; why the mountain continued to limit season pass sales and cut the ski day into sessions for 2021-22, and whether those changes will persist; keeping lift-ticket prices low; reciprocal season-pass partners; why Wachusett didn’t migrate from the MAX Pass to the Ikon Pass; whether the mountain could ever join another multi-mountain pass; reaction to the advent of the Epkon passes in New England; why Wachusett pass sales persist in this environment; you won’t believe the ski area that Wachusett bid on last year; and why Crowley thinks I should buy a ski area and why I probably never will.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewBecause from my seat, it doesn’t make sense: the Epkon passes keep getting more affordable, their kingdoms spreading like videogame emperors, and Wachusett doesn’t flinch. It was on a megapass and the megapass disappeared and the mountain didn’t join another one. They’re just like, “nah we’re good.” But in an accent impossible to imitate and designed to make me look ridiculous if I tried. Wachusett just keeps going. A third-grade bubblegum-wrapper detective could figure out why: great location, good managers, rabid local skiers. Fine. It’s still surrounded by abandoned ski areas. What makes this place special, a true independent independent in an era of consolidation and backed-into-a-corner coalition building? Listen to Crowley and you’ll get it pretty quick. I sure did.What I got wrongI said on the podcast that Jiminy Peak and Pats Peak had lift-ticket prices exceeding $100. This is incorrect. Jiminy Peak’s top rate for the 2021-22 ski season is $99. Pats Peak tops out at $89. I also referred to Connecticut’s Woodbury ski area as “Middlebury,” making my second ridiculous yeah-I’m-not-from-New-England mistake in as many weeks.Why you should ski WachusettWell, if you live in eastern Massachusetts, the answer is pretty straightforward: because it’s right there, a thousand-footer parked in your backyard. High-speed lifts and twice-a-day grooming and ticket/pass prices that are entirely reasonable. No well-I-guess-I-don’t-really-need-my-kidney-medication sticker-shock here. Even the cafeteria is affordable. It’s the same reason I ski Mountain Creek from my perch in New York City – there’s no reason not to.If you’re anyone else, from anywhere else, there are infinite other reasons why Wachusett may appeal to you: to support a family-owned business, to be part of the mania, to witness The MACHINE. I don’t know. I figured out a while ago that I could spend the rest of my lift skiing the same six ski areas in Vermont that everyone else did, or I could explore a little. I’m having a lot more fun since I decided on the latter path. Five Star Recommend. Just go.Additional reading/videosLift Blog’s inventory of Wachusett’s lift fleetHistoric Wachusett trailmaps on skimap.orgWachusett perennially appears among the top 20 resorts on Ski magazine’s Eastern resort rankings - it nabbed the No. 15 spot this yearLongtime Worcester Telegram & Gazette snowsports columnist Shaun Sutner appeared on the podcast last week, and we discussed Wachusett and Worcester at length. His first column this season focuses on the next-generation of family managers set to guide the ski area into the future.Crowley and I discussed: what is the real vertical drop of Berkshire East (1,180 feet advertised), and Wachusett (1,000 feet advertised)?Support The Storm by shopping at our partners: Patagonia | Helly Hansen | Rossignol | Salomon | Utah Skis | Berg’s Ski and Snowboard Shop | Peter Glenn | Kemper Snowboards | Gravity Coalition | Darn Tough | Skier's Peak | Hagan Ski Mountaineering | Moosejaw | Skis.com |The House | Telos Snowboards | Christy Sports | Evo | Hotels Combined | Black Diamond | Eastern Mountain Sports Subscribe at www.stormskiing.com

The Record Store is a 30 minute dive into the rock n roll exploits of host Lance LeVine, featuring one album randomly selected from his ridiculously large record collection as the backdrop. Lance has been driven by the music since 1970, when he started collecting Beatles albums with Let It Be. Since then, and hundreds of concerts & thousands of albums, he’s got a story about every band, from America to Yes (because ABBA to ZZTop would’ve been too cliche). Jump aboard and listen to Lance talk about Tears For Fears: Saturnine Martial & Lunatic! This is the second episode of the series.. This is Episode #6 of the STSPOD library and is part of the “Nothing to Do About Wrestling” series. Lance posts an episode on the 2nd and 4th Monday of every month.

On this fantastic "share-cast" I talk with Rik of The Tin Biscuit Podcast about his research into Aleister Crowley and a mysterious box found in Crowleys' own Boleskin House, which partially burned in a fire less than ten years ago. This was a fun conversation that leads to us sharing our opinions on the mask mandates and its relation to the apocalypse. Disclaimer: Aleister Crowley was by some accounts an evil person, and probably a criminal, in this episode we did not, and do not wish to promote or aggrandize him or his work in anyway.

Afternoons 3-6 on 105.9 The X Adam Crowley, The Crowl Man!, in again for the Super G today. It's Browns week, and Crowleys got something for the Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield. He also wonders if the Big Ben might be playing his best football EVER.

Den tillbakadragne poeten Fernando Pessoa och den excentriske äventyraren, poeten och ockultisten Aleister Crowley hade inte mycket gemensamt på ytan. Så varför träffades de? Henrik Nilsson berättar. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Några mil utanför Lissabon finns ett dramatiskt kustlandskap som kallas Boca do Inferno, Djävulsmunnen. Här slår och skummar Atlantens vågor mot klipporna, och vattenmassorna dånar i de underjordiska grottorna. En lång rad olyckor och självmord har ägt rum vid dessa stup genom åren. Det inte alla vet är att Boca do Inferno en gång i tiden också var skådeplatsen för en märklig episod som innefattar två huvudgestalter i mellankrigstidens avantgardistiska och ockultistiska strömningar. I vissa avseenden var de varandras diametrala motsatser: Den reserverade och melankoliske poeten Fernando Pessoa, vars liv till det yttre inte var särskilt dramatiskt. Och den excentriske magikern och författaren Aleister Crowley, som levde ett liv fullt av erotiska eskapader och bisarra utsvävningar. Det var det gemensamma intresset för ockultism och astrologi som ledde fram till den osannolika kontakten mellan Pessoa och Crowley. Under många år gjorde Pessoa horoskop över de mest skilda personligheter i historien och i sin egen samtid från diktare som Lord Byron och Goethe till diktatorer som Mussolini och Salazar. Men också över de olika fiktiva författarjag som han själv skapade, Pessoas så kallade heteronymer. När han vid ett tillfälle läste den första delen av engelsmannens självbiografiska bok The Confessions of Aleister Crowley upptäckte han att det horoskop som stod tryckt på en av de första sidorna var felaktigt uträknat. I ett brev till förlaget The Mandrake Press påpekade den internationellt helt okände Pessoa misstaget och fick då ett tacksamt svar från Crowley själv. Det blev början på en oregelbunden kontakt som skulle vara i nästan ett och ett halvt år. Under lång tid var inte alla delar av den här historien kända för allmänheten, eftersom de efterlämnade breven och manuskripten i Lissabon till skillnad från resten av Pessoas kvarlåtenskap var i privat ägo. Men 2008 förvärvade staten dokumenten i en uppmärksammad auktion. Litteraturvetaren Steffen Dix har samlat allt material i en portugisisk volym under titeln O Mistério da Boca do Inferno (Mysteriet vid Boca do Inferno). Här finns brevväxlingarna och tidningsklippen från den tiden men också det ofullständiga manus till en kriminalhistoria på engelska med titeln The Mouth of Hell som Pessoa skrev inspirerad av händelserna. Och som i likhet med nästan allting av den portugisiske författaren aldrig publicerades under hans livstid. Tidigt under deras brevväxling dyker tanken på ett personligt möte upp. Det är Crowley som är den pådrivande kraften, medan den mer tillbakadragne Pessoa förhåller sig avvaktande till planerna. Crowley vill av flera olika personliga skäl fly utomlands under en tid. I breven diskuterar han möjligheterna att öppna en sorts filial i Lissabon till en av sina hemliga ordnar. Pessoa vill å sin sida övertala Crowleys förlag att börja ge ut portugisiska verk, däribland en del av hans egna dikter. Den 2 september 1930 anländer till slut Aleister Crowley till Lissabons hamn, tillsammans med sin nittonåriga älskarinna Hanni Jaeger. Pessoa tar emot dem på kajen, och Crowley beskriver honom senare i sin dagbok som en mycket trevlig man. Någon språkbarriär fanns inte; Pessoa hade lärt sig engelska under skolgången i Sydafrika och använde det ofta i sitt arbete som frilansande översättare av affärsbrev. Ibland skrev han också egna dikter direkt på engelska. Under några dagar ägnar sig Crowley och Jaeger åt strandliv i Estoril utanför huvudstaden. Men de praktiserar också så kallad sexuell magi med en sådan livlighet att hotelledningen till slut ber dem att flytta. Mitt i turbulensen flyr den unga tyskan Jaeger på egen hand in till Lissabon. Vad Aleister Crowley gör under de följande dagarna har aldrig riktigt klarlagts. Men snart hittas ett brev under ett cigarettetui vid Boca do Inferno Djävulsmunnen där Crowley har skrivit till Hanni Jaeger: Jag kan inte leva utan dig. Det andra Boca do Inferno kommer att ta mig det kommer inte att vara lika hett som ditt! Det är en journalist vid namn Augusto Ferreira Gomes som har hittat meddelandet. Av en händelse råkar han också vara en av Fernando Pessoas närmsta vänner. Aleister Crowley är spårlöst försvunnen. Allt tyder på att han faktiskt har tagit sitt liv vid Boca do Inferno. Nyheten får stor uppmärksamhet i Portugal och når också den internationella pressen. Pessoa medverkar i polisförhör och skriver artiklar om händelsen utan att avslöja att han i själva verket haft en del i vad som egentligen är ett excentriskt upptåg. Ett upptåg som gnistrar av humor och ironi och där såväl Crowley som Pessoa får användning för sina gäckande masker. För snart dyker ockultisten livs levande upp i Paris och Berlin. Den engelske magikern fortsätter sitt utsvävande och skandalösa liv, och blir efter sin död en omhuldad gestalt i olika subkulturer. Vad kan allt detta ha betytt för Fernando Pessoa? Mötena med Aleister Crowley och episoden vid Boca do Inferno måste ha varit en tumultartad händelse i hans åtminstone till det yttre stillsamma liv. Jag föreställer mig att det hade en både uppiggande och något besvärande inverkan på honom; som när en clown oväntat dyker upp och vill att man ska bistå i ett underhållningsnummer. En av de mindre kända aspekterna av Pessoas mångfacetterade person var hans intresse för kriminallitteratur. Men till skillnad från många av vår tids deckarförfattare var det inte de politiska och sociala omständigheterna kring brottet som intresserade honom utan själva pusselläggandet, tankearbetet som leder fram till gåtans lösning. Den här sidan kommer till uttryck i Pessoas egna, ofullständiga försök i deckargenren framför allt då i The Mouth of Hell. Men snart övergav han projektet. På sätt och vis kan man säga att han hade viktigare saker för sig. Istället skulle hans halvheteronym Bernardo Soares aktiveras på nytt, bokhållarbiträdet på Rua dos Douradores som skriver sin Orons bok under ensamma timmar på kontoret. Pessoa och Crowley fortsätter att växla en del brev, men Pessoa svarar med allt längre fördröjning, och till slut inte alls. Det finns anteckningar som tyder på att han betraktade Crowleys överdrifter med en viss skepsis. Men de stora skillnaderna till trots fanns det också underliggande beröringspunkter. De delade en dragning åt mystifikationer och iscensättningar; det var bara det att Pessoas lekar och förklädnader helt och hållet ägde rum inne i språket. Poeten är en som låtsas skriver han i en dikt. Med tiden måste händelserna vid Boca do Inferno ha tett sig alltmer avlägsna för honom. Hälsan försämrades av en tilltagande alkoholkonsumtion och 1935, fem år efter mötena med Aleister Crowley och Hanni Jaeger går Fernando Pessoa bort, fyrtiosju år gammal. Ännu kommer många år förflyta innan vidden och djupet av hans författarskap går upp för omvärlden. De sista orden han skriver på sin dödsbädd är på engelska: I know not what tomorrow will bring.

Drager & Daimoner fortsætter i Good Omens-land, i godt og ondt selskab med Aziraphale og Crowley i andet afsnit, The Book. Hvor første afsnit var relativt ligetil, så tilføjes der nu ikke mindre end tre storylines til vores historie. Lært af vores The Witcher gennemgang, deler vi derfor afsnittet op i to dele. The Book, Adam og de nye karakterer på den ene side og Aziraphale & Crowley på den anden. Vi introduceres for den lidt taberagtige Newton Pulsifer perfekt castet af den lidt taberagtige Jack Whitehall, den rablende Witchfinder Sergeant Shadwell og heksen Anathema Device, efterkommer af Agnes Nutter, witch. Sidst men ikke mindst hører vi lidt flere profetier fra Agnes Nutter, Witch. Aziraphale & Crowleys har nu indset, at de har brugt 5 år på det forkerte barn og jagter nu desperat barnet alt imens Himmel og Helvede lader op til det endelig slag, der nu kun er dage væk. Dagens musik er leveret af Hans Zimmer fra scoret til filmen Engle og Dæmoner fra 2009 instrueret af Ron Howard. Husk også, at man kan støtte Drager & Daimoner på https://dragerogdaimoner.10er.app/.

Crowleys third hour of the day, I think he was super pissed about the baseball hall of fame or something like that. I don't know I just know there was a lot of yelling and something called a Fruit Hall of Fame? Dammit I miss this show....anyways enjoy!! - Shirtless Tom.

This week we interview the vendors who set up at the Crowleys Ridge Vintage Market located at Parker Pioneer Homestead south of Harrisburg, Ar. I want to thank all of the vendors who let me interrupt their day for a brief interview, Also a special thanks to Kim Harkey for allowing me to come out and and talk to vendors. Brief note: About half way through the day my recorder malfunctioned and I lost all of the recordings I had up to that point. I tried my best to get back to everyone I could remember that I had interviewed, unfortunately I'm not sure if I made it back to everyone.

Tonight on Dump Stats... The Bad Humanoids attend another funeral. They don't get any easier. The Crowleys put their past behind them. Nathaniel takes up the fiddle. Nero looks for Hoots. Everyone gets drunk.

In our Second Hour, Crowley's Tarot Black Magick Distraction, the host will look at the history and symbolism of Tarot Cards and modern Playing Cards. From the early calendar systems developed after our T6-Last Great Ice Age Era, to the societal models of the early City States in our T3-Copper Era (10,000-4000 B.C.), to the beginnings of Hebrew Mythology and Mysticism of our T2-Iron Era (4000 B.C. - 2000 A.D.), to the excavations beneath the Temple Mount in Jerusalem by the Knights Templars and their return to Europe in 1126 A.D., to the appearance of the Tarot of Marseille circa 1499 A.D., to the Kabbalistic Magick systems of Eliphas Levi, to Aleister Crowley's 1944 "Book of Thoth" the host examines the meaning of these ancient cryptic systems and how they form the foundation of the jewish New World Order agenda.

From the early calendar systems developed after our T6-Last Great Ice Age Era, to the societal models of the early City States in our T3-Copper Era (10,000-4000 B.C.), to the beginnings of Hebrew Mythology and Mysticism of our T2-Iron Era (4000 B.C. - 2000 A.D.), to the excavations beneath the Temple Mount in Jerusalem by the Knights Templars and their return to Europe in 1126 A.D., to the appearance of the Tarot of Marseille circa 1499 A.D., to the Kabbalistic Magick systems of Eliphas Levi, to Aleister Crowley's 1944 "Book of Thoth" the host examines the meaning of these ancient cryptic systems and how they form the foundation of the jewish New World Order agenda.

Alright, back to the Winchesters. We're uncovering some deep shit about Crowleys motives from the last episode. Also we wanted bubbly beverages. Our cats make an appearance. So do Joey and Chandler.

This week on We've Got Ward, we finish up Arc 6: Pitch covering chapters 6.8 and 6.9! After a contentious back and forth with Tattletale, Victoria and Company convince her to help out without giving up Cradle, and the teams move to stop the Crowleys in Boston. We quickly find out the Crowley’s aren’t just here for a little bit of the old ultraviolence but are actually planning something...big. The heroes scramble to prevent it, but just as they eliminate the Fenway Station Station forces, tinker devices activate all over the city, opening the interdimensional portals to massive, uncontrollable sizes...and killing Jessica Yamada. DISCUSSION QUESTION OF THE WEEK How do you think Wildbow successfully manages to hold tension across entire chapters like he does in 6.9? Do tonally incongruent characters like the Anime-squad hurt or help this? If you have any questions, comments or feedback feel free to reach out to us.

God only knows why Ned Flanders has the most sought-after soul this side of Springfield, but Hell aims to find out why. Not one but two Crowleys, both demonic masters of temptation, have been sent to make Flanders a deal, but a man can only really sell his soul once. Will Supernatural's Crowley meet Ned at a crossroads and make him a deal no double-widower could refuse? Or will Good Omen's Crowley masterfully orchestrate all of Springfield's worst citizens into the perfect corrupting force against poor pious Ned? Miles reminds us of the Beginning; MeganBob gets real about Sam and Dean Winchester; Dan threatens torture; and Brad Bultman returns to tell you to give up on your dreams of being on Ninja Warrior.

This week on We've Got Ward, it's part 3 of Arc 6: Pitch covering chapters 6.6 and 6.7! The Fallen War is over, but the problems for the Misfit Toys are just beginning. The Crowleys are heading back into the city to cause a little of the ultraviolence and Victoria and her team need help to take them down. Rebuked by the Patrol Block, they're forced to deal with Tattletale even as the team begins to splinter. DISCUSSION QUESTION OF THE WEEK Should the Misfit Toys (or whatever you want to call them *sigh*) break up? If you have any questions, comments or feedback feel free to reach out to us.

Hør om den besynderlige, britske okkultist Aleister Crowley, der på mange måder var forud for nutidens strømninger. Crowley levede fra 1875 til 1947 - blandt andet i Italien - og Morten Beiter åbner her en flig af okkultens historie i den sicilianske fiskerby Cefalù. www.dr.dk/P1/panorama (Sendt første gang 9. juni 2016).

Etter en liten tirade om borgerlønn og Star Trek plukker vi opp historien om Aleister Crowley like etter Liliths død.Tilbake i England blir Crowley klar over at Rose har fått et alvorlig alkoholproblem. Overbevist om at det hele er en prøvelse gitt han av de hemmelige mesterne begynner han og George Cecil Jones å danne grunnlaget for Crowleys egen magiske orden; "Argentum Astrum" eller Sølvstjernen. Han etablerer tidskriftet "The Equinox", som fungerte som et talerør for organisasjonen, og som til Golden Dawns forskrekkelse trykket mange av de hemmelige ritualene til ordenen, og de går rettens vei for å forsøke å stoppe det hele. I tillegg til de utallige elskerinnene han hadde i denne perioden, så støter han på to damer som skulle ha en betydelig innflytelse i livet hans, Leila Waddell, en australsk fiolinist og Mary Desti, som skulle ta Roses rolle som en kanal til de hemmelige mestrene. https://taakeprat.com

Locked out of the car in your pajamas? Pulled over by the police in nothing but your nightshirt? How about impersonating a police car? Crowley tell stories of driving mishaps during President’s Day 2016 while up at the Island Park cabin.  

Mel and Mark tackle the second half of Downton Abbey series two.  We take the full hour to break it down.  Mark makes a strong corollary between The Crowleys and The Kardashians.  Next week we talk about the Christmas Special.  This episode was recorded at sea (yep really).
