Podcast Announcement

Just a heads up!

In my constant endeavor to juggle life, the show website may be out of commission in the near future as I attempt to learn WordPress and combine my various projects/websites into one. For example:

Art
Paranormal
The Infinite and the Beyond
Baphmetis Meditation
Other pursits, interests, and services

My discussion with Alka (that will be in episode 27) has inspired me to unite the various aspects of who I am instead of herding them into different websites. The Infinite and the Beyond and it's domain (www.infinite-beyond.com) is going to be the hub for this consolidation, which is why the show website will be out of commission as I make this change.

Stay tuned and happy solstice!

Forum update

I just deleted forum members who have never participated on the forum according to the host. If this applied to you, I apologize, but you will need to rejoin and introduce yourself to everyone.  I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

Whoa... 1,983 for the day!

For some mysterious reason, the downloads for the show went through the roof today. Nearing 2,000.  A number which is very unusual by a long stretch. Probably the most the show has seen in a single day and so breaking the previous record of 1,837 which happened back on October 31, 2011.

Thank you to those who have helped make this possible. Happy Imbolc. BB / 93 and welcome to the podcast. Enjoy!

Goodbye PDF Library...

The other day I made the decision to remove the PDF library from the website. It had been causing some concern regarding copyrights and such and I didn't want anymore issues with it so I took it down.  I apologize that there was no warning or forwarded announcement about doing so.  It all happened very quickly and it had to be done.

Other available resources include....

R.I.P Garrett Husveth from Haunted NJ

Last Sunday I was informed that Garrett Husveth from the Haunted New Jersey (podcast) passed away suddenly and this is news that I have been dealing with all week.  If you don't recall, episode # 4 of this podcast was a combocast with Garrett and Gordon from HNJ.  I'm posting this announcement because Garrett is a part of the history of this podcast and one of the reasons that I started this show in the first place. Also, some of who I am would not have been possible without his friendship, insight, and guidance which came from knowing him and the work he and the other guys from HNJ put into their show. Garrett will be missed by many. My deepest sympathies go to his friends and family. Rest in peace my Masonic Brother.

If you have never listened to the HNJ podcast, I strongly recommend it as they have an archive of incredible information, some of which contains insight that you won't hear anywhere else.  Their show is a crucial reality check for any serious paranormal investigator.  Be sure to check them out by clicking on the logo below or the link above to find their Libsyn page or search for them on iTunes while they're shows are still available!

Podcast featured on The Juggler!

I missed this article!

Thank you to Tim Titus, a writer from The Juggler (PNC Project), for his October 29th article "Voices of the Elders Part II: Voices of the departed" which talked about podcasts that highlighted the ancestors of the modern pagan movement.  Of the many podcasts mention, he closed part II of his article series by focusing on The Infinite and the Beyond, and stated:

"The best resource for a detailed education on our spiritual ancestors is The Infinite and the Beyond, hosted by Christopher Orapello."

He then went on to list the current 16 episodes (at the time) with their corresponding A Corner in the Occult topics for the interested reader/listener.

Thank you to Tim Titus for spotlighting the podcast and for the work that you do at The Juggler!

Podcast Alley?

Something is wrong with Podcast Alley. The feed is not updating and listeners are informing me that they are unable to vote for the show.  I have tried to contact Podcast Alley twice and have yet to hear anything from them.  People on their forum are also experiencing similar problems with no results or help from the people from the website.  Something is wrong.  It's like it has been abandoned.  If anyone has any insight or connections to the people at Podcast Alley please alert them to this problem.  The last entry for their site Blog was back in September.

Thank you.  Hopefully this will get fixed.

PSA: HOLY SH*T!

The show is currently sitting at #3 (Religion and Spirituality:Other) on iTunes!

THANK YOU EVERYONE!
