The Hello, bizarre story,

9
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:05,440
friends, welcome to another
Spooktacular episode of The

10
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:12,280
Bizarre A.
If it is Halloween, and if

11
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,600
you're watching on video, we
have a little treat for you.

12
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:23,640
I'm dressed up as a warlock and
Alicia looks like a very

13
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:29,480
menacing werewolf.
Yeah, I even have teeth too.

14
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,200
You too.
I know.

15
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,400
I'm like, oh, I'm going to try
talking with these.

16
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:35,880
And actually, it's not that
easy.

17
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,200
It isn't that easy.
No.

18
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,680
And it totally makes your lips
like she's got them on her lower

19
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,440
K9, what I call lower canines.
I don't.

20
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,120
You call them.
Yeah.

21
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,560
So they go up and it totally
makes her lip go out like a

22
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,240
werewolf.
And you can see these little,

23
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,160
like teeth coming up.
It's crazy.

24
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,680
And she's got these big, bushy
eyebrows.

25
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,720
Yes, I mean, I know.
Normally have big bushy

26
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,360
eyebrows, to be completely
honest.

27
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,040
I love them.
But they look.

28
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,160
Great, but I did not think out
the whole teeth thing for a pot

29
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,520
chat.
You're not hosting it, I know.

30
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:08,000
I don't have to do any work.
I just get to sit back and ask

31
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,039
questions.
That's cool.

32
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:11,200
With that good.
Well, you look great.

33
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,640
You look great.
Thanks.

34
00:02:12,920 --> 00:02:16,160
Thanks the gays.
Love Halloween.

35
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,160
Well.
I mean the theatre nerds, the.

36
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:21,800
Theatrical.
The, the.

37
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:22,560
The.
The.

38
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,360
The the dramatic.
Yes.

39
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,640
Those of us who are a little
extra, which we did talk about

40
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,880
an extra person on our last
podcast we did.

41
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,320
So it's OK.
We're cool with extra.

42
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,680
I'm cool with extra.
Yep.

43
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,360
So as you got from our title, we
are going to talk about the

44
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,840
mystical world of witches and
warlocks.

45
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,240
Yeah, so brace yourself for a
spellbinding journey.

46
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,600
I did not do sound of what is
wrong with me.

47
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,080
I did not have sound effects
ready.

48
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,880
You know what's wrong with us?
We have real lives and like

49
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:02,000
eventually it'd be great to just
do this, but also we have things

50
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,760
we have to do, the things that
are important.

51
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,840
Like, I don't know, work can
make a paycheck.

52
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,240
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Paying the bills.

53
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,680
So you have a pass on this one.
Thanks.

54
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,640
Purse purse.
Shade it.

55
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,040
All right, so I'm put on my
readers, since most people

56
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:22,160
probably aren't watching anyway.
OK, so witches and warlocks,

57
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,760
they have always I got my these
listen.

58
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,240
So if you're not watching, I
have this long black hair and

59
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,600
I'm not used to long black hair
and it gets caught in my mouth.

60
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,680
So I feel for all you women that
just have long hair in your face

61
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:39,640
all day.
I don't know how you do it.

62
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,480
Well.
We do it.

63
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:43,960
We just do it, Yeah.
OK.

64
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,520
So yeah.
Which is in Warlock.

65
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:52,600
So people have been fascinated
by them and feared by them all

66
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,680
through humanity and really that
kind of understand their their

67
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,520
world.
I'm gonna really dig into a lot

68
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:06,160
of myths and legends and a lot
of the stuff that you would

69
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,000
really have to dig in anyway to
to kind of get this information.

70
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,080
And we're gonna talk about the
misconceptions too.

71
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,279
So now, while it may be obvious
to most people listening, I do

72
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:23,160
think it's important to say that
witches and warlocks are not the

73
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,520
Hollywood creatures that we all
see.

74
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,880
Remember when in our voodoo
episode talking about Vodu and

75
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,880
what it really meant and how
we've made Voodoo something that

76
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:33,760
it's not?
Really.

77
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,600
We've bastardized bastardized
it.

78
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:43,080
Same with witches and warlocks.
So the legends in these people's

79
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,520
imaginations have really, you
know, made it witches and

80
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,040
warlocks, what we think of them
today.

81
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,840
And there were and there still
are, by the way, practitioners

82
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:57,440
of these practices and these
ancient practices that happened

83
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,600
today.
But most of them are around like

84
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,960
herbs and healing and kind of
the hidden forces, the energies

85
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,280
of the universe, which I truly
believe in.

86
00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:11,320
But that's kind of what many of
the witches and warlocks today

87
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,280
practice, and what they have
always practiced.

88
00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:19,400
Now, witches and warlocks have
existed across all cultures and

89
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:25,600
across all centuries, and
witches generally refer to wise

90
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,200
women who are helping their
community generally through

91
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,560
knowledge.
And warlocks, a term that's

92
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,520
actually less frequently used,
refers to the male

93
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,680
practitioners.
Now both were very feared during

94
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,440
the witch hunts of of the Middle
Ages, which we're gonna dive

95
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:48,160
into in a little bit, which we
all know very, very dark chapter

96
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,960
in history, and that is
completely fuelled by ignorance

97
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,640
and superstition.
Oh yeah, absolutely.

98
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,480
OK, so just as I had glazed over
a minute ago, warlock is the

99
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,440
common definition for the male
witch, right?

100
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,080
And the real origin of the word
they believe comes from an old

101
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:15,040
English word called war.
Loga which comes from the word

102
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:21,560
war, which means promise or
agreement, and loga which means

103
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:26,120
deceiver.
Now this translate in really

104
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,880
ultimately translates to
oathbreaker or liar or traitor,

105
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,920
and the term is believed really
to apply specifically around the

106
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,800
devil in the 11th century when
they were making promises kind

107
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,680
of to the devil.
Oh, OK.

108
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,640
Gotcha.
Now around the 12th or 13th

109
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:48,160
century kind of in in early
modern Scots which is the

110
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,520
language spoken in Scotland,
right?

111
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:56,240
And and upper Island actually
they used the word which now

112
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:01,760
invoked to Warlock, to describe
men who they believed had made a

113
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,040
pact to old horny, which is the
devil.

114
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,240
Old Horny, Old horny.
Wait.

115
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:15,960
Who calls it old Horny?
No Auld Auld horny HORN i.e.

116
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:23,040
Auld Lang zai, not old horny.
Who calls it old Horny?

117
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,360
I swear to God I thought you
said that, That you called it

118
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,240
old Horny.
I might, I might say Auld.

119
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,680
OK, Auld horny.
But still, like, I kind of want

120
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:37,040
to call, OK, I'm going to
petition to start calling the

121
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:42,040
devil old Horny because I mean,
I don't think it's, well, it has

122
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,400
a root in history, so.
Right.

123
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,920
Yeah.
Good old old Horny.

124
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,120
And so these guys that had made
a pact with old horny and they

125
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,960
they've thus betrayed the
Christian faith and broke their

126
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,080
baptismal vows and oaths.
So hence oathbreaker.

127
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:04,000
Hence war logo, war logo which
turned into warlock.

128
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:04,880
Right.
OK.

129
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,480
That makes sense.
OK, now, most victims of the

130
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,160
witch trials in early modern
Scotland, they were well, they

131
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,400
were mostly women.
But there were some men that

132
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:21,520
were executed as warlocks as
well, and this term is that then

133
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,480
became synonymous with witches
which were female and warlocks

134
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,440
which were male.
That's that's the origin of the

135
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:33,280
of the term.
Now Speaking of warlocks, one of

136
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,559
the first documented warlocks
was a man by the name of Thomas

137
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,520
Weir.
And I'm gonna tell you this

138
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:47,960
story for no other reason than
it is just good folklore legend

139
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,600
tale.
And honestly, it is not

140
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,480
informative at all, but
completely fucking entertaining.

141
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:55,800
OK, OK.
Thomas.

142
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:03,520
Thomas Weir WIER OK, so now
Thomas Weir was born in 1599 in

143
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,760
Scotland, and he was a
descendant of one of these very

144
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,360
powerful families in the country
and they were called the Weir of

145
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:18,640
Verdes Weir de Verdes.
And he was the son of Lord

146
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:23,240
Kington, I think was his name.
And Lady Jean Somerville was his

147
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,960
mother.
And they, by the way, his mother

148
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,000
claimed to possess clairvoyant
powers.

149
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:34,320
Oh, we like her now because she
was, so, what's the word like

150
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,000
upper class and so well known
she wasn't just, like, burned at

151
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,400
the stake.
As well, right?

152
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,000
No, no.
You have money.

153
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,280
You have money.
Yeah, You're OK.

154
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,000
You're fine.
Wait, you have money and like,

155
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,560
land and like, yeah, no, no,
don't worry about it.

156
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,640
It's OK.
Yeah, yeah, it's OK.

157
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:52,440
It's OK.
It's OK.

158
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:54,400
It's just like you're talking to
God.

159
00:09:54,400 --> 00:10:02,880
It's fine.
So in 1650 he obtained the post

160
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,960
of Commander in the town of
Edinburgh, thus acquiring this

161
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,080
rank of of major.
Now by this time he's living

162
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,000
with his sister who they all
called Grizzle was his sister's

163
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,800
name.
And following retirement we're

164
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:22,160
gets Thomas gets sick.
This is like 18 Sorry 1670 and

165
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:27,560
from his bed he starts to
confess this secret life that

166
00:10:27,560 --> 00:10:30,440
he's been living this whole
entire time.

167
00:10:30,680 --> 00:10:32,320
No.
Along with his sister.

168
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,560
With his sister.
Him and his sister are both

169
00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:36,120
living it.
Uh huh.

170
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,320
Great.
Why do I feel like this is gonna

171
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,160
get, like, really fucking weird?
What?

172
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,000
I feel like they're gonna, this
is gonna, this is honestly gonna

173
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:48,680
be like Game of Thrones.
Like we're like, yeah, no, no.

174
00:10:48,680 --> 00:10:50,840
Like, this is just what everyone
did in the 16 hundreds.

175
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,160
This is such a doubt.
Yeah, this.

176
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,280
Is like my secret life, AKA like
fucking everyone.

177
00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:03,680
OK, great, Great.
So the cops initially find this

178
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:04,960
confession.
His confession's, like,

179
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,960
completely implausible.
Like the stuff he's saying.

180
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:12,400
They're like, no Mr. Weir, no
time is no tummy.

181
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:18,560
But also, you're dying, right?
So, like, well, but eventually

182
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,320
Weir gets his little spinster
sister Grizzle her.

183
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:23,880
Her real name's actually Jean
Weir.

184
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,720
I mean, I'll.
Just Jean Weir, but we're we're

185
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,480
kind of going to call her
Grizzle, Cause everyone called

186
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,600
her Grizzle.
So they finally take them to

187
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,280
Edinburgh to for interrogation,
'cause she's starting to talk

188
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:40,960
too.
And so now Weir's in his 70s and

189
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,160
he's still like, you know, he's
starting to talk about some

190
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:48,120
weird shit.
And they bring Hazel into a

191
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,400
different room and she's like,
saying the same shit.

192
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,800
And so they're like, OK, like
maybe this is like.

193
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,000
Maybe there's something,
something here, Yeah.

194
00:11:57,680 --> 00:12:03,920
And so she's saying she's
talking about all of these

195
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:10,800
things, like witchery and
sorcery and shenanigans.

196
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,120
Ghosts.
Mystical things.

197
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,920
And he is, he's saying the same
stuff.

198
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,640
And Grizzle says that Thomas got
his power from his walking stick

199
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,160
that he had, which on the top of
it was a carved human skull.

200
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,560
What?
And she said that.

201
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:36,400
What she Yep.
So she So she said that's this

202
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:40,600
is what gives him his power.
And he's like saying this too.

203
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,400
Now let's just be clear.
Like they were living together

204
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,880
forever.
So if you and I were living

205
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,000
together and like doing like
weird stuff like our stories I

206
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,800
think would match.
Sure, we could live in our own

207
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,120
delusions together.
Our own delusions.

208
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,600
That was the word I was looking
for.

209
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,960
Yeah, yeah.
But remember, his mother was a

210
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,760
bona fide witch.
Yeah, Clairvoyant.

211
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,680
Like she.
Yeah, she was, like, bona fide.

212
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,880
OK, can we please talk about the
fucking like, elephant in the

213
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,720
room?
Which is He is walking around

214
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:22,760
with a human skull on the top,
on the top of his freaking cane,

215
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:26,520
and no one's like, hey, maybe we
need to look into this dude.

216
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,280
No, he's a Weir.
OK, but still.

217
00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:34,600
He has a fucking skull on his
like cane, like you can

218
00:13:34,680 --> 00:13:38,600
literally like trip him and he's
incapacitated.

219
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,560
Where the fuck did this skull
come from?

220
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:49,480
And it's carved like uh.
It's like, I'm sorry, but it's

221
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:55,000
like you are walking down the
street today, OK You see someone

222
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,760
with a skull on a cane?
I'm going to assume they got it

223
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,520
off of Amazon.
Yes, of course they did.

224
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,840
You know, I'm not going to
assume anything else.

225
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,640
Where else do you get it?
Where to get my whole outfit?

226
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,600
What do you think I'm wearing?
Sponsored by Amazon.

227
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:20,440
But really, I mean, it's not too
far off actually.

228
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:28,120
Oh my God, that's funny.
So, so, OK, I'm assuming they're

229
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,520
going to.
Yeah, like it's Amazon, this

230
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:31,920
guy.
This is the 1600s.

231
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,480
Where are you going to find a
fucking human skull?

232
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,440
OK, they are weirs.
They have money like they have

233
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,480
connections.
You stay far away from this

234
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,600
motherfucker.
You you see him.

235
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,480
It is like you wish a black cat
were crossing your path.

236
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,720
Well, yes, because especially
when you start hearing the shit

237
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,440
that they do like and they're
doing to people like you're

238
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:57,520
like, why are why are you here?
I am only focused on the fucking

239
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,640
human skull attached to his
cane.

240
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:05,280
Is it a bone cane?
Is it a stick cane?

241
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,800
It in fact is made out of
thornwood.

242
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,600
And how the hell did he?
Thornwood.

243
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,000
Oh, great, of course, would be
Thornwood, because they could,

244
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,040
they couldn't find anything oak,
pine.

245
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,360
No, no.
I'm like they couldn't find like

246
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:26,080
heart or something.
Or like love wood.

247
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,160
That's a different kind of wood,
OK?

248
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:35,760
And I.
Digress.

249
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,400
Different episodes.
So, right.

250
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,280
So people.
Yeah, So, yeah, so.

251
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:42,880
He's walking down the street
with braiding down the street

252
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:43,520
with this thing.
Yeah.

253
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:51,160
OK.
And so they were eventually

254
00:15:51,160 --> 00:16:00,160
taken to a prison in Cannon Gate
and examined by who they called

255
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,720
the, I guess the minister.
I guess that's legal system in

256
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,760
Edinburgh.
Oh yeah.

257
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,200
They were put on trial in 1670,
which is the same year that he

258
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,600
started doing all of this.
Confession Did I?

259
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,920
OK.
Did I miss something?

260
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,760
What was he tried for?
No, you haven't told us yet.

261
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,600
Not really, I haven't.
Really.

262
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,720
Told you, I just wasn't sure if
I'd missed something.

263
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,240
They were both very quickly
found guilty to trial and

264
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,120
sentenced to death.
Oh my gosh, yeah, because the

265
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,960
dude's walking around with a
damn skull on his freaking cane.

266
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,440
He doesn't exactly.
I'm sorry, but Kevin, he does

267
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,600
not look like an innocent man.
He could have, he could have

268
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,440
said nothing and I'm sure he
would have still been tried for

269
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,600
something because the
motherfucker is looks like a

270
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,720
walking murderer he had.
He's parading in front of people

271
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,240
with the fucking cane.
So she claims that she's

272
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:06,079
actually saw him casting spells
and witchery on, what do you

273
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,800
call it, Homeless.
On the riff.

274
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:19,800
On the riff, raff.
He coaxed a man into a coach.

275
00:17:22,079 --> 00:17:23,839
Oh wait, sorry, let me regret
digress.

276
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,760
So before his SO, his back to
his cane.

277
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,960
Yeah, back to his.
Cane he, she said.

278
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,760
He got his powers from his cane.
Well, he got those powers

279
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:47,600
because a man summoned him into
this carriage and gave him this

280
00:17:47,600 --> 00:18:02,680
great power and and and also
gave him knowledge of this war

281
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:09,960
that was currently happening and
how and the day that it would

282
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:17,560
end.
And so he had told like friends

283
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,600
and his sister about this.
And on this day this thing's

284
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,920
gonna end.
And it did end.

285
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,400
And so he's telling the police
this and so the, you know, the

286
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,760
police are like first you're
effing whack job, right.

287
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,640
So I don't like, I don't even
know what you're talking about.

288
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,400
Yeah, exactly.
Sure.

289
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,880
OK, sure.
Great.

290
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:36,680
Whatever.
Great.

291
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:41,120
I'm so glad.
Thanks for saying it's over.

292
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,600
Yeah, thanks for saying that
date now.

293
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:53,520
And so, so, so then there's no
extreme details of what they did

294
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:58,440
other than doing shenanigan
crazy things to the homeless.

295
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,080
Coaxing the guy into the
carriage.

296
00:19:01,120 --> 00:19:03,760
The sister says she doesn't know
what happened to him, but.

297
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,680
The so, the sister's ratting on
her brother.

298
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,440
Yeah, but less of a rat and more
of a boast.

299
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,640
She's like, look at all the shit
we got up to.

300
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,560
Yeah, we like we've been living
this life of Debaci because

301
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,080
we're witches and warlocks.
We're evil.

302
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,880
We're gonna, yeah.
This is what we do.

303
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,240
Yeah.
OK, Gotcha.

304
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,880
So while they're waiting
execution, they're confined to

305
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,880
this former leper colony in
greenside below this place

306
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:37,480
called Carlton Hill.
And that is where Weir was

307
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,360
basically hung, strangled and
burned at the stake.

308
00:19:42,360 --> 00:19:44,480
They want to make sure that
fucker.

309
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:44,760
Was.
Yeah.

310
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,640
Yeah.
They really like we're going to

311
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,640
choke you to death and burn you
to death.

312
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,120
We're.
Going to make sure that your

313
00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:52,880
corpse is and then they
scattered his remains in a

314
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,520
field.
Because they're afraid that he

315
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,920
was going to be like re conjure.
But all the only proof that they

316
00:19:59,920 --> 00:20:02,720
had the only things that they
even admitted to doing.

317
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,880
First, Yeah, that they had.
Proof of Proof of, I guess Was

318
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:12,480
that OK, your moment's a witch,
but they never like, like

319
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,480
literally witnessed him doing
things.

320
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,120
They only had them confessing to
the exact same stuff.

321
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,240
I think this is rich people
ship.

322
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,440
It's very well could be.
You know, rich people are

323
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,600
fucking just like.
They're like, I'm bored in life,

324
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,120
yeah.
And that's what they do.

325
00:20:28,120 --> 00:20:30,240
I didn't.
I didn't even think that they

326
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,120
did anything.
I think that probably like, oh

327
00:20:32,120 --> 00:20:35,520
hey, look, we're the weirs.
We're we're we can do anything

328
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,960
we want.
Let's tell them we're fucking

329
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,320
witches and warlocks.
Let's walk around with a God

330
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,880
damn fucking human head on a
cane.

331
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,640
Like let's see what they do.
Oh, yeah, we did all these weird

332
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,640
things to these homeless people.
Which ones?

333
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,240
They're gone now.
Oh, OK, OK, sounds good.

334
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:54,920
And by the way, when the war was
gonna.

335
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,280
End.
Yeah, the I knew when the war

336
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,480
was gonna end.
Right after I heard that, it

337
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,280
ended.
Like what the fuck?

338
00:21:02,120 --> 00:21:07,440
So they kept telling.
Like when they're getting ready

339
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,960
to strangle him and choke him to
death and put him and burn him,

340
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,000
they're telling him he needs to
forgive, he needs to pray for

341
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,600
forgiveness, pray for
forgiveness, pray for

342
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,320
forgiveness.
And they have him quoted as

343
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,680
saying, His last words were Let
me alone, I will not.

344
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,240
I have lived as a beast, and I
must die as a beast.

345
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:27,920
Oh.
I want that on my fucking

346
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,440
gravestone.
I've lived as a beast.

347
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:35,400
So then they take his walking
cane, made of thornwood and

348
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,760
skulls, and they throw it into
the flames.

349
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:46,520
And it's reported that that it
made the fire behave oddly.

350
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,760
And there was strange whirling
in the fire and exaggerated

351
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:55,480
movements once the cane was, you
know, being engulfed with its

352
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,480
master.
Probably because they're all

353
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:03,720
fucked up on opium or something.
And like, honestly, there's

354
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,320
probably like some cocaine or
something.

355
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,960
And they're like, what is that?
We're feeling weird now.

356
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,960
It's like, yeah, because this
dude's been fucked up on drugs

357
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,400
for his whole life.
They were weird people.

358
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,440
Laudanum and whatever.
I don't know.

359
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,920
So.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I forgot.

360
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,960
Right before they strangled and
burned him alive, We're we're

361
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,800
made another public confession
of incest with his sister.

362
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,800
Called it.
Called it.

363
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:38,360
Fucking called it.
You did call it.

364
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,960
You can't write this shit up.
Oh no, no, no.

365
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:42,520
It has been written multiple
times.

366
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,480
It has happened multiple times.
We keep on seeing iterations of

367
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,800
this shit.
Like, what is the fascination

368
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,880
with fucking your sister like?
It's so weird.

369
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:58,200
It is so weird, OK, A lot of
people in the world, Yeah.

370
00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:58,760
Weird.
Yeah.

371
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,880
OK, yeah.
So that all happened.

372
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,440
But now let's actually talk
about witchcraft.

373
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,480
Yeah, that sounds good.
So in discussing witchcraft, I

374
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,680
want to remind people that is
essential.

375
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,480
I just wanna approach it with
respect because yeah, there are

376
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:20,720
still people that are Wiccans.
They practice witchcraft, and I

377
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:27,200
don't wanna offend anybody.
I just want people to know that

378
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,840
witchcraft encompasses all kinds
of rituals and beliefs and

379
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:36,800
traditions, and we're just gonna
talk about some.

380
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,160
It's not like we're not
stereotyping, we're just talking

381
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:41,960
about some.
Yeah, look.

382
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,680
Yeah, I think it's a good.
It's a good thing to to, to give

383
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,160
some, you know.
Yeah.

384
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,400
Some kind of context.
Yeah.

385
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,240
But also like you don't have all
the time in the world to talk

386
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:53,360
about all the different types
of.

387
00:23:53,360 --> 00:23:55,560
Yeah, yeah, no, just a brief
overview that's.

388
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:56,600
Yeah.
Yeah, that's fine.

389
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,240
Yeah.
I don't think it's offensive.

390
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,520
OK, great, so now witchcraft is
not a monolithic practice.

391
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:09,120
It varies greatly depending on
culture, geographical location,

392
00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:14,080
historical factors and some well
known traditions are Wicca,

393
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:21,520
Druidry, Hoodoo, Traditional
Witchcraft, and like I had

394
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,280
mentioned before, a lot of
witchcraft just focuses on, you

395
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,560
know, connections and earth and
cycles and moons and.

396
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,120
Very natural, very natural.
Exactly very natural.

397
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:32,040
Sacred.
Drawing.

398
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:33,800
Inspiration from natural
elements.

399
00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:35,800
Yeah.
Herbs, animals, Right.

400
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:36,680
Moons.
Totally, yeah.

401
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:44,320
And it can be a very spiritual
thing for practitioners and some

402
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:49,080
worship deities while others
focus on ancestor variations of

403
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,640
worship or nature, spirits or
all kinds of things.

404
00:24:55,120 --> 00:25:00,400
Some witches practice alone,
others parts a part of a coven,

405
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,280
which I would have to be part of
a coven.

406
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,280
Would you?
You wouldn't be a sole

407
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:06,480
practitioner?
No, no.

408
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,520
OK, and these communities offer
support and mentorship and

409
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,920
opportunities, group ritual
celebrations, just like any kind

410
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:21,400
of community community.
Many witches adhere to ethical

411
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,080
guidelines such as the Wiccan
Reed, and it part in part

412
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:31,840
states, and it harm none.
Do what ye will.

413
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,960
Which emphasizes importance
really, of just being

414
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,000
responsible, ethical.
Yeah.

415
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:39,160
Don't.
Yeah.

416
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:40,880
Don't hurt anyone.
Don't be a Dick.

417
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,240
Yeah, exactly.
But as I mentioned, ethical

418
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:50,520
beliefs can vary.
Totally.

419
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,920
So as we know, witchcraft has
been misunderstood Sigma ties

420
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,040
throughout history.
The witch hunts of the past that

421
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,360
led to prosecution of a lot of
innocent people, primarily women

422
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,880
who were accused of witchcraft.
And then of course there are

423
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,760
till still misconceptions and
stereotypes when anytime you

424
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,640
hear the word witch you you
don't think of a nice holistic

425
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,560
person.
No, you don't.

426
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,720
No, you just don't.
You think of like a haggard,

427
00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:22,000
haggard, evil.
Yeah, yeah.

428
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,520
Menacing.
Menacing, exactly.

429
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,600
So witchcraft encompasses a lot
of practices in rituals.

430
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,520
And so I just wanted to give you
some examples of some elements

431
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,680
and practices associated with
witchcraft.

432
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,040
Yes.
So the one that we're all

433
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:44,280
familiar with is spell casting.
And this is a fundamental aspect

434
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,520
of witchcraft.
And witches and warlocks can

435
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,800
cast spells for all kinds of
purposes, and they can do it for

436
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:55,040
things like protection.
They can do it for things like

437
00:26:55,040 --> 00:27:00,920
healing and love and money,
prosperity, all that stuff.

438
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,520
Have you seen those like candle
ones?

439
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:05,720
The candle rituals like on
Tiktok?

440
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,120
I haven't actually seen one.
Yeah, you can watch them.

441
00:27:09,120 --> 00:27:12,720
And people will.
It's witches who will help with

442
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,680
protecting.
Oh yeah, and they have like 2

443
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,320
candles.
And it's like they're bound with

444
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,600
string.
And like, the string will like

445
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,640
based on the situation, like
they put like salt around the

446
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:29,880
person to protect them, to try
to get like the the hold that

447
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,800
the person has on them off.
OK, Isn't that cool?

448
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:37,280
So I would.
I'm gonna show you you're

449
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,800
watching.
Kevin's picking up a book.

450
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,400
A huge book.
Give me just a second.

451
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,880
That has like handmade paper,
yes.

452
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,320
And I'm gonna talk about this
book in a little bit later.

453
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:55,400
But while we were talking about
this particular topic, I just

454
00:27:55,400 --> 00:28:00,480
gotta find the page.
Stand by 'cause I think I had a

455
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,680
bookmarked.
See that?

456
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,360
Oh, my gosh.
Candle magic.

457
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,040
Shut up.
Really.

458
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:09,400
Yeah.
Did you have it?

459
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,600
You had a bookmarked.
I did have it.

460
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,600
Did you know that I was gonna
say something?

461
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:14,800
Of course not.
I hadn't.

462
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,960
That is so crazy you're watching
on video.

463
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:22,120
I kind of holding up the candle
magic book or the page and it

464
00:28:22,120 --> 00:28:24,880
talks about candles and the use
of candles.

465
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,600
I've got it.
There's words written here in

466
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,240
which language?
And then of course English, so

467
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:39,160
you can actually do it anyway,
but we'll get back to that book

468
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,320
in a second.
I just wanted to show you that

469
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:41,440
'cause I thought was that's.
Crazy.

470
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,280
Yeah.
OK, let's see.

471
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:52,080
So we talked about candle magic.
We talk about let's see,

472
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,320
Divination.
God, this hair divination so

473
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,040
like.
Telling the future or something.

474
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,240
It's to gain insight into the
future.

475
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,920
Yes, seek guidance.
Higher powers, yes, yes, yes.

476
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,520
Common methods of that are tarot
cards.

477
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:07,960
Tarot cards.
We've done that.

478
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:12,480
Astrology.
Pendulum drowsing, scrying.

479
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,960
We've talked about using a
crystal ball, like and stuff.

480
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:22,520
Then there's herbalism.
A lot of witches think that.

481
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:27,320
Herbs have a lot of power.
Again, 'cause it's based from

482
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,360
Earth and nature.
I've known herbal witches.

483
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,440
Yeah, the kids.
So they can create potions and

484
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,840
bruise and thermal remedies.
Yeah, medicines and stuff.

485
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,320
Candle magic, like we just
talked about before.

486
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,400
Different candles are used to
represent different in

487
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,920
intentions or people's signs and
things of that nature.

488
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,640
And then of course, there's
Sabbats and espets.

489
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,400
You know they celebrate cycles
of the moon and the change in

490
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,800
seasons of rituals through
Sabbats and.

491
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,440
What is a Sabbat Savit is like?
I don't know how to define it,

492
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,160
but have you ever heard of I
think the?

493
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,920
Jews Sabbath, Sabbath, like a
SAB.

494
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,960
It's.
But I think it has something to

495
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:13,320
do with time of year.
I think I thought like this

496
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,520
because it had well, I know.
Oh my God, your teeth are.

497
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:22,560
Falling out because what what
this is related to is seasonal

498
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,800
celebrations and lunar
celebrations.

499
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,640
Oh, OK.
I don't know.

500
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:30,040
Calendar.
Yeah.

501
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:31,320
Maybe.
Makes sense, Yeah.

502
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,360
Then of course there's alters.
You know they'll have personal

503
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:41,400
alters or community altars.
They put objects and crystals

504
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,000
and statues of deities and, you
know, candles, that kind of

505
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,880
stuff.
There's the invocation of

506
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:51,000
deities.
So they invoke and work with

507
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,320
deities or specific gods or
goddesses in their practices.

508
00:30:56,080 --> 00:31:01,280
There's protection and warding
like a warding, and they employ

509
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,280
protective spells and rituals to
ward off negative energies or

510
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:09,600
hexes or harmful energies.
There's ancestor variation

511
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:15,440
veneration, which which is honor
their ancestors and seek

512
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,440
guidance from ancestors.
There's energy work, kind of

513
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,960
like chakra stuff if you're
familiar with chakras.

514
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,680
There's what's called kitchen
witchcraft, which they just use

515
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,840
like everyday cooking and food
with magical intention.

516
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,560
Oh, OK, interesting.
And then dream magic, where

517
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:36,800
witches explore dream work and
lucid dreaming and divination as

518
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,880
we're talking about, or
spiritual exploration, that kind

519
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:43,600
of stuff.
So not all witches practice

520
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:48,120
everything.
It's very specialized and they

521
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:54,120
can just very wildly.
Well, it's kind of like

522
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:59,080
denominations like in in
different religions, so like a

523
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,640
perfect example.
Like Christianity, You have

524
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,520
Catholicism, you have
Lutheran's, you have

525
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,480
Presbyterians, you have all
these different, like, versions

526
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,360
of, you know, similar things,
but you have specialties or

527
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,600
things that you believe in a
little bit stronger than others.

528
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,640
Yes.
So that, I mean, that totally

529
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,040
makes sense.
And I think it would make sense

530
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,720
where you would, yeah, pick and
choose what would work.

531
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,600
Work best for something.
Maybe you're maybe you're more

532
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,160
into herbs like I've known some
herbal witches and I'll tell you

533
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:33,280
what like I've had like issues
and they've helped me like with

534
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,040
I mean dry herbs and ocean and
stuff like that.

535
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:41,560
And I've I've, I don't know I've
any witch I've ever met.

536
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,760
I've loved.
But we're in Colorado.

537
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:50,280
There's a lot of, like, mountain
medicine woman, earthy, herbal

538
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,600
witches.
And they've always been great.

539
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,800
I mean, come on, you can.
I learned how to use, like,

540
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,120
dandelion.
It's an astringent that you can

541
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,960
use.
You can mash up like you.

542
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,320
We would go on walks with this
herbal witch and she would be

543
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,200
like, oh, you have this.
Mash that up in your teeth and

544
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,360
rub it on your skin.
I'm like, that's pretty fucking

545
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,240
cool, you know?
And like she was like super

546
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,960
chill and you know, sweet kind
but like to smoke weed and like,

547
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:19,840
you know, whatever, just do her
own thing.

548
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,440
I I I think that there's like
such a freaking bad rap on on

549
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,080
Witches, but without question.
It makes sense.

550
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,640
Guess what?
Whole Foods, all that shit in

551
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,360
the fucking body section and
stuff, those motherfuckers are

552
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,280
are basically that was created
by an herbal witch, OK?

553
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,880
It really was.
Oh, you're a tincture.

554
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,760
Yeah, you mean shit that fucking
witches have been brewing for

555
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,760
years and years.
They were doing out of a

556
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,120
cauldron was a problem.
But now that they're with

557
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,800
bubbling pot, yeah.
Bubbling pot.

558
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,080
Like like my bubble bubble
toilet trouble.

559
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,600
Like it really just makes your
tummy feel better.

560
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,600
And like and.
Now people are going to Whole

561
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,240
Foods like oh fuck witchcraft,
you're like bitch, you fucking,

562
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,600
you do things.
Anyway, sorry.

563
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:09,920
So the other thing I found
interesting when I was attending

564
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:19,040
to research this was that there
are many, what I will say male

565
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:23,040
witches.
Warlocks don't like to be called

566
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:27,040
warlocks.
They want to be called witches,

567
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,040
and the reason is is because
warlock has such a bad

568
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,600
connotation as I described
earlier oathbreaker, liar,

569
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,280
deceiver.
And so they don't want to be

570
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,440
known as that, which is really
unfortunate, 'cause I like, I

571
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,480
think the term is cool.
Like you have a witch and a

572
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,360
warlock.
You have, you know, male and

573
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,080
female.
Like, I think it's cool, I

574
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:48,560
think.
But of course I'm not in the

575
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,560
culture and I don't.
You know, it's easy to say

576
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,159
outside looking in, but I don't
know.

577
00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:56,280
I just think it's cool.
Do they use the term Witcher?

578
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,680
I didn't.
I didn't come across that.

579
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,960
I mean, I know it's a video
game, but and a television show,

580
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,520
but I don't know.
I didn't know if it was like

581
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,920
another version of thing.
No, I didn't ever come across

582
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,040
that term.
Yeah, probably not.

583
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,640
Interesting I.
Don't want to be a rule oath

584
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,000
breaker either, so don't have
them right.

585
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:21,360
I'm not a liar or deceiver, so I
thought it would take a second

586
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,960
to walk you through my Book of
Shadows.

587
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,720
Yes.
So I've spent the last year and

588
00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:32,440
a half making this book.
You if you're if you're not

589
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,640
watching, if you're watching
then you can see it, but if

590
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,520
you're not I'll describe it.
So it's a a very large book.

591
00:35:38,720 --> 00:35:43,080
You know it's maybe about a foot
and a half by a foot big.

592
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:50,360
It's bound in leather and you
it's got leather straps.

593
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,880
It says Book of Shadows.
It's got a metal clasps on it to

594
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:59,080
to clasp it shut.
And inside is an embossed kind

595
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:04,880
of star with a gold circle with
a little eye that looks like

596
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,320
it's like covered in eye scan.
So this is kind.

597
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:20,440
Of like wake up, wake up.
OK, so anyway, so in inside are

598
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:24,160
all handmade pages and I'm
still.

599
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:30,120
I'm very slowly starting to fill
this out, but here's a glamour

600
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,440
spell.
Have you ever done any of these

601
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,040
spells?
I have not personally done yet

602
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,360
done a spell.
Oh my gosh.

603
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:49,480
Oh, here's the seven Wonders if
anybody can concilium.

604
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,520
Uh, huh.
Then there's Donation,

605
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:58,040
Transmutation, Vitalin, Voralis,
Dicentium, and Dichronesius.

606
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,720
And I can tell you what they are
if you want to know what these

607
00:37:01,720 --> 00:37:04,240
seven Wonders are.
Now the seven Wonders are what

608
00:37:04,240 --> 00:37:09,840
the the the Primo Divino witch.
Only the Primo Divino witch can

609
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,880
do these things.
Oh, OK, And so telekinesis is

610
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:19,880
moving objects.
Concilium is control of the

611
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:23,800
mind, controlling somebody
else's mind, somebody else's

612
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,240
mind.
A divination is seeing thoughts

613
00:37:27,240 --> 00:37:32,960
and objects with the mind.
Transmutation is transporting

614
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,120
yourself through space and time.
Oh, I wanna get that one.

615
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,840
Vitalium viralis is the
transference of a life force.

616
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,200
So like if you were sick, I
could give you some of my life

617
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,400
force to help cure you.
The Cynthium, which is descent

618
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,080
into the netherworld of the
afterlife.

619
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,800
That one is and bad.
No, that's a no.

620
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,240
No.
Let's be like going to hell for

621
00:37:55,240 --> 00:37:56,720
a hot minute.
Yeah.

622
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,840
No, Dichronesius is the
controlling of fire.

623
00:38:01,720 --> 00:38:03,680
So out of all the Dichronesius,
sorry.

624
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:08,000
I would want telekinesis and the
one where you move into a

625
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:09,280
different place.
That'd be nice.

626
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,680
Yes, exactly.
OK, so I've got that.

627
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,520
I've got the just saw the candle
magic.

628
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:19,240
I've got several other spells in
here, the glamour I've I've

629
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,360
slowly started populating them,
and I'm populating them on

630
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,920
random pages so that it starts
to be spread out.

631
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,080
Anyway, I'll this is the one I
wanted to show you.

632
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,080
Hold it up.
So it's how you make moon water.

633
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:41,640
Oh yeah, and you can use moon
water for anything.

634
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:46,080
And you can drink it, You can
put it in your food, you can

635
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,480
bathe in it, You can make your.
There's other spells and potions

636
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:58,000
in here that require moon water.
And so moon water is water that

637
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,360
is literally bathed from the
moon, and you just.

638
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,440
But you can't make it within a
lunar eclipse.

639
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,200
This is like the rule, like you
cannot do that.

640
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:07,240
It's.
Like a no, no, it makes it that.

641
00:39:07,240 --> 00:39:09,880
No, no, yeah, you can.
It's obviously most potent with

642
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,520
the full moon, and so the
ingredients are just water of

643
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,600
any kind.
And then you put that water in a

644
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:21,080
container and then you can put
like crystals in it too,

645
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:22,720
depending on what you want to
do.

646
00:39:22,720 --> 00:39:25,920
But it's just water that's just
clean water.

647
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,480
And so you put the water in the
container, and then you put that

648
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,240
container where it will be in
direct illumination of the moon.

649
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:39,120
And then you say this.
I won't read it, but you'll see.

650
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:44,880
You say this and then you leave
it in the moon as long as

651
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:48,840
possible, but you have to take
it out before the moon sets.

652
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,480
You can't, like, not let it just
sit out.

653
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,840
Without the moon and grab it the
next one and then you store it

654
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,080
in dark cool place and you can
just keep recharging it and

655
00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:59,920
charging and charging and make
it more and more important as

656
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:03,280
long potent as long as you keep
doing this And so yeah, the idea

657
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:08,920
is that this moon water is just
you know they say the moon has.

658
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,720
Pole on the earth and it has
some force.

659
00:40:12,720 --> 00:40:14,440
Ties.
It affects ties, yeah.

660
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,600
So that's the thought is that it
gives some kind of energy.

661
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,440
And we're made-up of water, so
why would it not affect us?

662
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,440
Can I tell you something about
the moon?

663
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,800
Yeah.
So I have a friend who, and I've

664
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:29,680
heard this that doctors tend to
see, like emergency room doctors

665
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,920
and stuff.
They see more patients around

666
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,880
the time of like a full moon.
Oh yeah.

667
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,960
And I was like, bullshit?
I asked her.

668
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,600
I said hey.
Is there any truth to this?

669
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,280
Like, do you actually see more
patients?

670
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,480
She said.
We have the weirdest We will

671
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:47,680
know when it's a full moon,
because the weirdest stuff will

672
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,360
happen.
Things that you that you'd never

673
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,960
see normally happen.
Yeah, and everyone comes in.

674
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:53,840
Yeah.
It's like it's like people are

675
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:56,440
accident prone.
Like it's it's just people are

676
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,520
off and kind of goofy and maybe
turning into a werewolf or

677
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:05,440
