In this episode,  Christopher McIntosh returns to Rebel Spirit Radio to  discuss his latest book, the spiritual memoir, The Call of The Old Gods. The conversation touches upon McIntosh's journey into paganism, the definition and significance of paganism, and how it nourishes the different levels of the human being. We explore the role of cultural memory and the cyclical notion of history inherent in pagan beliefs. McIntosh shares personal anecdotes about his influences, notable figures in the esoteric world he has encountered, and the importance of reviving pagan traditions. The discussion also delves into the need for sacred spaces, the influence of Pan and other gods, and the growing interest in paganism and esoteric studies in modern times.
