Pub Chat: Deity Work, Rasputin, Doctor Strange

The Horn & Cauldron

Welcome to Pub Chat! These episodes are for us to have a more free-form way to discuss listener questions, shorter subjects, as well as magical happenings, musings, and of course, go off on tangents.

Our question of the week is about Deity work. Do you need to work with or worship a deity? What if you don’t like their myths? Or if you’re not into all that “woo woo” stuff? We talk about all of these aspects of the question, and more.

In Story Time, we finish up our chat about Rasputin by talking about the rumors of him and his deeds. Wizard or Charlatan? You decide whether you think they’re true, and if he was really a magician.

We watched Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness and express our thoughts on it spoiler free in Magic in Media segment. We’ll be hosting a panel at FanimeCon 2022 where we talk about Magic in Anime and discuss the magic in five different animes: Record of Ragnarok, Magical Girl Ore, Trese, Fire Force, and Witchcraft Works.

If you want to get ahead of the game, consider watching any of these so you’ll be in the know when you watch the episode (or watch us live at the con)!
