In this episode, Kirk shares some of his wildest stories from the frontline of rave culture — including the time he turned down Ed Sheeran, ran riot at European ski festivals, and survived the madness of the '90s dance scene.This is the eventful life of Mr Kirk FieldFor Kirk's book & Lie shows: https://www.kirkfield.net/podcastYouTube: Dodge WoodallInstagram: @Dodge.WoodallWebsite: DodgeWoodall.comTikTok: @DodgeWoodallLinkedIn: @DodgeWoodall Hosted on Acast.

From 2008- Dr. Wilkie Wilson, co-author of "Buzzed: The Straight Facts about the Most Used and Abused Drugs from Alcohol to Ecstasy." The book has been released in at least two more editions since this one.

In this episode of Poducer, we sit down with Chicago-based house producer, DJ, and attorney Arum — a rising voice in the underground scene known for his soulful, groove-forward productions, community organizing, and fiercely human-centered approach to music. He shares how early influences like Crystal Castles and Death from Above shaped his love for experimental rhythms, and why he now champions house music with emotion, texture, and intention. Arum breaks down his creative process, his views on algorithm-driven promotion, and how he uses marketing tools like Meta ads with intention — all while avoiding the industry's pressure to chase empty numbers. We also dive into his legal background, discussing music contracts, AI concerns, and why empowering artists with knowledge is at the core of his mission. Plus, we talk about Beyond Ecstasy Vol. 2, the multi-genre event he's curating at Book Club Chicago on August 2, featuring names like Backpack, Dante Drives, Yannaa Lynette, and more — a night that blends house, hip-hop, experimental electronics, and rave history into one vibrant community gathering.

Part Two of a Two Part Episode   Continuing on from last week's examination of how depictions of the work place in fiction have transitioned over the decades from daily grinds where hard work will reward the worthy to places where you can find fun and family (if you're a team player) to recent depictions of bleak office hellscapes where baffled, exploited employees are required to perform a series of increasingly bizarre and senseless tasks (Severence - we're looking at you), this week Jules and Madeleine delve into the archetypes of this genre. Why might you want to write an anarchist or a saboteur? Why is sci-fi such good fit for telling workplace stories and why might you want to write one? And just what can we learn from these stories? Under the microscope this week: Severence, Fight Club, Squid Game and many more.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

Ivy Pochoda is the author of the critically-acclaimed novels Visitation Street, These Women, Sing Her Down, and the just-published Ecstasy, a reimagined contemporary feminist horror story hailed by the Washington Post as a “stiletto-sharp remake of Euripides.”  She is also the co-author of The New York Times best-selling middle-grade Epoca fantasy series, created by the late basketball legend Kobe Bryant and written under the name Ivy Claire. Her books have been awarded the L.A. Times Book Prize, the 2018 Strand Critics Award for Best Novel and the Prix Page America in France, and she has been a finalist for the prestigious Edgar Award. A former collegiate and professional squash player, Ivy has led a creative writing workshop in Skid Row, Los Angeles, and is currently a professor of creative writing at the University of California Riverside-Palm Desert low-residency MFA program.  Writing fiction and playing squash are a lot alike, she says. “Both teach self-reliance and self-motivation. And both practice deception.” Learn more about Ivy Pochoda: Website Facebook Twitter Pochoda's appearance on Writer's Bone Please support the sponsors who support our show: Gotham Ghostwriters' Gathering of the Ghosts Ritani Jewelers Daniel Paisner's Balloon Dog Daniel Paisner's SHOW: The Making and Unmaking of a Network Television Pilot Heaven Help Us by John Kasich Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall by Lindsey Jacobellis Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Libro.fm (ASTOLDTO) | 2 audiobooks for the price of 1 when you start your membership Film Freaks Forever! podcast, hosted by Mark Jordan Legan and Phoef Sutton Everyday Shakespeare podcast A Mighty Blaze podcast The Writer's Bone Podcast Network Misfits Market (WRITERSBONE) | $15 off your first order  Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Wizard Pins (WRITERSBONE) | 20% discount

Send us a textIn this provocative and deeply spiritual exploration, Hope Johnson shatters conventional perspectives on relationships, sexuality, and pleasure. What if our sexual experiences are merely substitutes for the true ecstasy we're designed to experience within ourselves? Hope reveals how our inner masculine and feminine energies, when properly aligned, create a sustainable joy that makes external pursuits pale in comparison. She explains that bodies can never truly join—the pleasure we think we experience is merely projected by our minds. This understanding transforms sex from a sacred act to simply another illusion in our dream state, no different in essence from eating a sandwich.The conversation delves into how relationships often function as distractions from awakening. When we enter deep, entangled connections with expectations of fulfillment, we're setting ourselves up for inevitable suffering. Hope suggests that the "happy dream" may not include sexual relationships at all, but rather light, joyful connections without the burden of expectation.Drawing from A Course in Miracles, Hope explains that sexual impulses are misguided miracle impulses—attempts to join what cannot join. This doesn't mean condemning sexuality, but recognizing its true purpose in our spiritual journey. When brought to the Holy Spirit, any experience becomes a means for undoing the dream rather than reinforcing it.This wisdom challenges our core beliefs about what makes life worth living. Are we willing to question these deeply-held attachments to pleasure? Can we recognize that underneath our desires for bodily connection lies a profound yearning for the divine union that's always available within?Visit HopeJohnson.org to engage more deeply with these teachings. Your donations support this work and are now tax-deductible through Hope's religious nonprofit status. Join the conversation about awakening from the dream and discovering the true ecstasy that lies beyond all bodily pleasures.Support the show

Part one of a two part episode Sci-fi and fantasy have portrayed many workplace settings over the decades - engineers and pilots on space craft, for example, or fairy smiths and kitchen witches in fantasy. However while fantasy has been leaning into the idea of leaving unfulfilling work and finding a perfect cosy profession, sci-fi has been delving into the nightmare of the bad workplace. This week, Jules and Madeleine take a look at the common criticisms and fallacies of the workplace highlighted by  fiction, and just why this is finding an avid audience now.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

When you hear the word "shaman," I'm guessing a web of associations starts to form in your mind. Perhaps you imagine strange ceremonies and strong substances; maybe you think of an earlier time when magic and superstition reined. But shamanism is not just some relic of the past, or a curio from exotic lands. It's part of our present, and it will almost certainly be part of our future. This is because the roots of shamanism lie within us all. My guest today is Dr. Manvir Singh. Manvir is an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, Davis and a regular contributor to The New Yorker. He's also the author of a new book—Shamanism: The Timeless Religion. Here, Manvir and I talk about his fieldwork with Mentawai shamans in Indonesia. We discuss what makes a shaman a shaman, and consider the cognitive building blocks that make shamanism so widespread and so appealing. We discuss the shamanic origins of Abrahamic religions. We consider how, over the course of history, shamanism has repeatedly resurged, despite attempts to snuff it out. And we also talk about the various forms and flavors that shamanism takes in contemporary Western societies. Along the way, Manvir and I touch on: drumming, fasting, and the “dark tent”; Jesus; experimental Edens; witches, prophets, and messiahs; glossolalia; disenchantment and re-enchantment; the rise of neoshamanism; Paleolithic rock art; hedge wizards and tech CEOs; Western exceptionalism; and the routinization of charisma. If you enjoy this episode, I highly recommend that you check out Manvir's book—it's a captivating blend of narrative and ideas and it goes far beyond what we were able to talk about here. I'll also flag that this Manvir's second time on Many Minds. Back in July of 2020 we had another conversation—broader in scope—where we talked about shamanism but also Manvir's work on witches, stories, and music. So you might check that one out as well. Alright friends, on to my conversation with Dr. Manvir Singh. Enjoy!   A transcript of this episode will be available soon.   Notes and links 4:00 – For a video examples of shamanic rituals from around the world, see Dr. Singh's recent thread on Bluesky / Twitter. 12:30 – On the idea of “cultural attraction” and “cultural attractors,” see here and here.

Clayton Howard, a male escort who alleges he was trafficked by Sean "Diddy" Combs and his former partner Cassie Ventura, has filed a civil lawsuit against the pair. Howard claims that from 2009 to 2014, he was coerced into participating in "freak-offs," drug-fueled sex sessions organized by Combs and Ventura. He alleges that Ventura infected him with a sexually transmitted disease and terminated a pregnancy without his consent. Additionally, Howard accuses Ventura of manipulating him into taking ecstasy and engaging in unprotected sex, leading to physical and psychological harm, including lost wages, medical expenses, and emotional distress.Despite not testifying in the federal trial against Combs, Howard's experiences were referenced during the proceedings. The lawsuit paints a disturbing picture of exploitation and abuse, with Howard seeking damages for the trauma he endured. This legal action adds to the growing number of allegations against Combs, who was recently convicted on two counts of transportation for the purposes of prostitution, though he was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Diddy hit by explosive new sex scandal hours after being cleared of most serious charges he faced | Daily Mail Online

Diverse Voices Book Review host Hopeton Hay interviewed Ivy Pochoda, author of ECSTASY.  Based on a Greek tragedy by Euripides, Pochoda explained how she wanted to address difficult truths about female oppression and marital patriarchy. As described on her website, "Ecstasy is a riveting, darkly poetic, one-sitting read about empowerment, desire, and what happens when women reject the roles set out for them."  Diverse Voices Book Review Social Media: Facebook - @diversevoicesbookreview Instagram - @diverse_voices_book_review

Disney, purveyors and creators of magical family friendly (mostly) entertainment have existed through an interesting and checquered 9 decades. The company is responsible for some of the most beloved fairytale retellings and pioneered the animated feature film. However, it's not all magic kingdoms and pixiedust. As with all multi billion dollar corporations, there's a dark side. The company has shapeshifted several times over the decades and interestingly, it seems to be undergoing a change again right now. Whether that will be for good or ill remains to be seen. This week the dragons look at why Disney might have a creativity problem and why the family friendly image is more of a facade than ever.  Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

Kiffen zum Runterkommen, Ecstasy beim Feiern, Microdosing fürs Studium, Koks auf der Clubtoilette, Tequila-Shots an der Bar ohne Ende – oder gar nichts von alledem?

Today's poem is Flesh (“You in your ecstasy of coffee”) by Deborah Landau. The Slowdown is currently taking a break. We'll be back soon with new episodes from a new host. This week, we're revisiting some favorites from Major Jackson's time as host. Today's episode was originally released on May 5 2023. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “When summer arrives, I run as fast as I can into its lushness. I am making new memories with family and friends that involve nights of alfresco dining, remote beaches, mountain ranges, and sun-drenched cocktail parties. Summer is the season that beckons most my senses; all that fruit bursting its wild colors: strawberries, apricots, and peaches. Whereas winter feels interminable, I am most aware summer's bounty is numbered, finite.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Marietta Approves Data Center on Bells Ferry Cobb County Protesters Flood the Streets for 'No Kings' Protests 6-Year-Old Injured in Smyrna Vehicle Shootout; Two Men Arrested All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: TIDWELL TREES_FINAL STORY 1: Marietta Approves Data Center on Bells Ferry The Marietta City Council approved a data center on Bells Ferry Road, sparking mixed reactions. Atlanta-based MMM Acquisitions plans a $100M campus with two buildings and a substation. Attorney Kevin Moore emphasized its role in supporting AI and digital services, generating $71.5M in tax revenue over 10 years. Critics, including residents and protesters, raised concerns about energy use, environmental impacts, and limited job creation. Moore countered that advanced cooling systems would minimize water consumption and disruptions. Supporters, like Mayor Steve Tumlin, hailed the project as a win for Marietta's growth. The 31-acre site will include buffers to shield nearby neighborhoods. STORY 2: Cobb County Protesters Flood the Streets for 'No Kings' Protests Marietta saw hundreds protest as part of the nationwide "No Kings" movement opposing President Donald Trump. Organized to coincide with Trump’s birthday and military parade in D.C., protests in east Cobb and downtown Marietta attracted diverse participants advocating for issues like LGBTQ+ rights, immigration, and equity. Protesters carried handmade signs and received honks of support from passing cars, though negative comments also arose. Demonstrations at the Cobb Courthouse and Johnson Ferry remained peaceful, with no arrests reported. Participants, including educators and families, criticized Trump's policies, calling for justice and empathy while rejecting the idea of centralized power. STORY 3: 6-Year-Old Injured in Smyrna Vehicle Shootout; Two Men Arrested A six-year-old was injured in a Smyrna shootout between two vehicles near Campbell and Springs roads Sunday afternoon. Police say the child was in one of the vehicles and was struck in the stomach. The child was rushed to a local hospital, though their condition remains undisclosed. Authorities identified and charged suspects Craig Radford Calhoun, 56, of Douglasville, and Eric Allen Rushi Jr., 30, of Atlanta.

Break: TOP TECH_FINAL STORY 4: Safety, Literacy and Cell Phones: Rivera Reflects on Marietta School Year Marietta Superintendent Grant Rivera reflected on the 2024-25 school year, celebrating literacy advancements, safety upgrades, and student success. About 586 students graduated at Northcutt Stadium, a proud moment for Rivera. The district expanded its Literacy and Justice for All initiative into middle grades, backed by a $1.1M grant, aiming to improve reading skills at all levels. Controversy centered on cellphone policies, with debates leading to a new high school pilot limiting device use in class. Security was bolstered with detectors and AI surveillance. Despite budget constraints, Marietta maintained programs and approved raises, reinforcing its commitment to students and staff. STORY 5: Leashing Dogs at Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area welcomes dogs on its trails but stresses a key rule: dogs must always be on a six-foot leash. With over three million annual visitors, leashes ensure safety for pets, people, and the environment. Past incidents with unleashed dogs have led to plant damage, injuries, and confrontations, highlighting the importance of this rule. Leashing also protects dogs from dangers like snakes, coyotes, and unsafe water. To promote responsible pet ownership, CRNRA offers the B.A.R.K. Ranger program, teaching leash etiquette and trail safety. Participants can earn certificates and make their dogs official B.A.R.K. Rangers. Break: INGLES 5 STORY 6: Drug trafficking investigation nets 11 arrests Law enforcement in Middle Georgia recently concluded Operation "Westside Wakeup," targeting gang-related crimes. The Bibb County Sheriff's Office, assisted by Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr's Gang Prosecution Unit, arrested 11 individuals on charges tied to drugs, guns, and violence. Authorities seized 17 pounds of marijuana, cocaine, Ecstasy, fentanyl, firearms, and $110,000 in cash, highlighting the connection between illicit drug operations and organized crime. Sheriff David J. Davis stressed the need to combat such activities, while AG Chris Carr vowed accountability for violent offenders. Federal agencies, including the FBI and DEA, played key roles in the investigation's success. STORY 7: Georgia Power completes hydrogen fuel test Georgia Power and Mitsubishi Power completed a groundbreaking test using a 50% hydrogen and natural gas blend at Plant McDonough-Atkinson in Smyrna, cutting carbon emissions by 22%. This world-first trial follows a 2022 test with a 20% blend. Natural gas, accounting for 40% of Georgia Power’s energy, remains crucial for flexibility and baseload power. The company’s 2025 Integrated Resource Plan proposes hydrogen-capable turbines at Plant Yates to further reduce emissions. While this innovation marks progress, environmental groups remain critical of Georgia Power’s reliance on natural gas and coal. The plan awaits a PSC vote on July 15. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break: TOP TECH_FINAL Signoff-   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.

On May 30, 2025, the FDA sent a letter of approval to the pharmaceutical company Moderna to manufacture and sell its new COVID-19 vaccine.1 But even more dismaying, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the world's most prominent advocate for vaccine safety, has now gone out on a political limb and committed himself to promoting Moderna's latest version of the mRNA Covid jab.2 In doing so, Kennedy is supporting the continuation of the world's most lethal medical or wartime assault on humanity, one that many see as a bioweapons attack on America by the globalists, including Communist China.   There are more than 38,000 reports of death to date to the CDC and FDA from the COVID-19 vaccines. Nothing like this catastrophe has ever before happened in medicine or public health. In addition, there is a deluge of reports and independent studies verifying the almost infinite harms caused by these mRNA vaccines. These harms include infertility, a declining birth rate, multiple harms to infants and mothers, cardiovascular disorders, including myocarditis in children and strokes in adults, tumors, a wide range of neurological and psychiatric disorders, and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), which results in greater susceptibility to infections and cancer. But for every reported death and other serious adverse event, we know that there are more than 100 actual deaths or harms. These “vaccines” are killing and maiming millions in America and millions more around the world.3   Here is Kennedy's entire defense of his atrocious actions:     Actually, there is nothing “limited” about the approval letter. The letter specifically empowers Moderna to manufacture and distribute the drug. They will go ahead with this before completing any additional studies supposedly promised to Kennedy, which would take years more. Besides, once a drug company has spent multi-millions getting a drug approved, as they have already done, I've never seen a company actually complete additional studies that could invalidate their drug. Moderna's survival is at stake, and drug companies don't commit economic suicide. And this one has the backing of Bill Gates!   Kennedy has broken many recent promises to get himself into this bizarre situation of betraying his previously voiced ideals. He is approving the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine without so much as a placebo-controlled clinical trial or even a review by the FDA Vaccine Committee. On top of that, pregnant women are not protected as he promised to do. But worst of all, he has never even promised to stop the heavily documented murder of the elderly who are killed by the mRNA covid vaccines at a rate of eight times more than the rest of the population.4   Many of us will remain eternally grateful for RFK, Jr's support for Donald Trump's election campaign. But now he must resign or be removed.   Kennedy's acceptance of the FDA's approval of Moderna's Covid vaccine is more than sufficient reason to fire him. But in addition, he is also grossly undermining the Trump administration and literally threatening the well-being of all our citizens by advocating the use of extremely dangerous neurotoxins, including methylene blue, MDMA or Ecstasy, and psychedelics. Trump's choice for Surgeon General, based on Kennedy's recommendation, is devoted to psychedelics! It's as if  RFK, Jr. has become a toxic mole within the America First movement.   For an in-depth scientific analysis and presentation about everything in this synopsis, please read the full article: RFK, Jr. blatantly supports the mRNA COVID shots and must be forced to resign - Full Article   End Notes:   1 May 30, 2025 Approval Letter – MNEXSPIKE   2 Secretary Kennedy on X: “I want to address those of you who have anxieties about @US_FDA's limited approval of a new mRNA COVID vaccine for high-risk populations. Moderna has agreed to a true placebo-controlled trial of the new vaccine, which is similar to the existing mRNA vaccine but uses a smaller” / X. Actually, there is nothing “limited” about the approval letter. Besides,  once a drug has spent multi-millions getting a drug approved, I've never seen one fulfill a promise to do studies that could invalidate their drug.   Besides, if a study of safety is still needed, it's ridiculous to put off until after it's been approved, by which time many could be harmed.   3 New FDA Plans for the Covid Vaccines Will Kill Millions More   4 New FDA Plans for the Covid Vaccines Will Kill Millions More   ______   Learn more about Dr. Peter Breggin's work: https://breggin.com/   See more from Dr. Breggin's long history of being a reformer in psychiatry: https://breggin.com/Psychiatry-as-an-Instrument-of-Social-and-Political-Control   Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal, the how-to manual @ https://breggin.com/a-guide-for-prescribers-therapists-patients-and-their-families/   Get a copy of Dr. Breggin's latest book: WHO ARE THE “THEY” - THESE GLOBAL PREDATORS?

In this powerful and soul-stirring conversation, I sit down with Adriana Rizzolo‬, a somatic healer, oracle, artist, adult sex educator, and Trance Dance Guide, to explore the raw, mystical, and transformative journey of healing, embodiment, and spiritual awakening. Adriana is the founder of Body Temple Church and the creator of Body Temple Dance, a ritual trance space where grief, rage, and ecstasy are transmuted into aliveness through prayer, performance, and intuitive movement. With vulnerability and fire, she shares her lived experience of walking the path of mysticism, from the streets of New Jersey to the sacred lands of the South of France, reclaiming the body as a temple and the earth as a guide. We dive into themes of birth and rebirth, the dark night of the soul, and the integration of trauma as a sacred passage. Adriana speaks to the ecstatic, the erotic, and the shadow, illuminating the creative force that emerges when we embrace both pain and joy.  We talk about ancestral healing, the journey of sexual awakening, and the importance of surrendering to the unknown as a portal into deeper presence and truth. This episode holds medicine for mystics, seekers, and anyone who has moved through great transformation and is learning how to live from that place. So make a cup of tea, find a quiet space, and join us in this potent conversation. It's tender, wild, and full of deep remembering. Discover Adriana's work below ❤️‍

On the afternoon of June 6, 2025, during Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking trial, a woman testifying under the pseudonym "Jane" provided detailed and emotional testimony about her experiences with Combs. She described being coerced into prolonged, drug-fueled sexual encounters, referred to as "hotel nights," which often involved male escorts and could last up to three and a half days. Jane testified that Combs supplied her with Ecstasy to endure these sessions and pressured her to continue despite her exhaustion, using phrases like "Let's finish strong." She recounted that Combs directed the activities, instructing her on how to interact with the escorts and herself, and that he would watch and masturbate during these encounters. Jane also detailed the physical toll these events took on her, including chronic back pain and frequent urinary tract infections. She stated that despite expressing her discomfort, Combs dismissed her concerns, and she felt compelled to comply due to her financial dependence on him, as he was paying her rent and providing other support.In addition to the physical and emotional abuse, Jane testified about the psychological manipulation she endured. She shared text messages and personal notes with the jury, revealing her feelings of being used and dismissed by Combs. One note read, "You lie straight to my face...all you want is another hotel night like you've been doing for two years." Jane recounted an instance where she was promised a vacation without any "hotel nights," but upon arrival, she was subjected to another coerced sexual encounter. She described feeling betrayed and manipulated, stating that she would not have gone on the trip had she known what was planned. Jane's testimony also highlighted the ongoing financial control Combs had over her, as she revealed that he continued to pay her rent even after their relationship endedto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:June 6, 2025 - Day 18 of testimony in the Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial | CNN

*Note: This is the Free Content version of my interview with Veronica French. To access the entire episode, please consider becoming a Tier 2 'Groves of Orpheus' member on Patreon, or you can purchase this episode for a one-time fee. My guest this month is Veronica French. Veronica has an MA in Religious Studies from the University of Erfurt, Germany. She specializes in the study of modern shamanism, anthropology of religion and gender studies. Her master's thesis explored how modern shamans living in Germany define a “shaman way” and their turning point or crisis, which informs their “shamanic journey.” Her undergraduate work was in medical anthropology with a focus on shamanic techniques and Chinese 5 Element, in which she explored the scholar/practitioner position. She presented previously at the 8th Biannual Conference of the European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism (ESSWE) with the paper “Performative Strategies of Creative Esotericism in 19th Century Jewish Communities” (Cork, Ireland, 2022); XXXI International Summer School on Religion Women and Religions with the paper “Modern Shamanism, Empowerment and Green Religion: Contemporary Shamanic Practice in Germany” (San Gimignano, Italy, 2024); and the International Theosophical History Conference 2024 with the paper “Modern Shamanism, Theosophy and Ecological Spirituality: Connecting Nature Spiritualities” (Ascona, Switzerland, 2024). Veronica also presented at three seminars at the University of Erfurt: “Initial Shamanic Interviews” University of Erfurt, Master's Thesis Colloquium (2023); “Green Religion and Indigeneity in Popular Media,”University of Erfurt, Green Religion? Answers to Climate Change from the Perspective of Religious Studies (2023); and “Ethnographic Work of Shamanic Practice in Eastern Germany,” University of Erfurt, Master's Writing Seminar (2023).In this discussion, Veronica shares her background and inspiration for her research into modern shamanism. We talk a bit about the terms shamanism and animism, as these are somewhat contested within academia, and Veronica shares how she is using these terms in her work. She explains what questions she was asking at the outset of her project, and also the surprising additions that arose once she started interviewing her participants. Veronica also notes the interesting data that she gathered regarding topics such as gender, identity, “lived religion,” and ecology. As Veronica has her own experience within the concept known as a the holistic milieu (referring to a broad and diverse spiritual landscape that encompasses various New Age and alternative spiritual practices; often contrasted with traditional religious institutions, as it focuses on personal spirituality, self-development, and holistic well-being rather than formal doctrines or organized worship), she found she was able to relate well to the experiences of her participants, and this aspect has led her to consider continuing her research using the method known as autoethnography. This is a qualitative research method that combines autobiographical storytelling with ethnographic analysis. It allows researchers to use their personal experiences to explore and critique cultural beliefs, practices, and social phenomena. Veronica talks about other scholars in the field who have been using this method, and how it is becoming more accepted within academia. If anyone has any questions or comments for Veronica, please post them here or contact me via email and I can pass these on to her. She welcomes further feedback and discussion! Veronica was also very kind to share some references for futher reading; please see this below. PROGRAM NOTESReferences:Olivia Cejan: "Arts and Crafts Divine" is her dissertation utilizing autoethnography and pedagogy to write about a secret society group. Talk at Copenhagen Conference:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g2qvGcy5pY&t=524sCorrine Sombrun: -Her institute: https://trancescience.org/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oDs10hUy6ETrailer to her movie; English subtitlesTed Talk:English subtitleshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym0kIECFi0Uhttps://amara.org/videos/Tcvokh51yb2Y/en/1543652/?tab=revisionsAnother interview with English (Google)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Syy4MTHAfF4 Alice Ahern: Phd Cork Ireland, studying shamanism and pop culture:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCCeV7MLtFcYoutube talk:  "The Reclamation of Feminine Wisdom in the Irish Neo-Shamanic Milieu" Traditional Religions view on Nature Religions:https://fore.yale.edu/Event-Listings/Religions-World-and-Ecology-Conference-Series/Religions-World-and-Ecology-Archivehttps://fore.yale.edu/sites/default/files/files/annual_review_environment.pdfBibliography :Eliade, Mircea.
