Podcast Episode 10: Cain Helsson


The Practical Occult Podcast is about magic being real, actionable, and above all – practical. Join hosts Alison Chicosky and Alexander Moore of Practical Occult as they chat with guests about personal experiences with magic and give examples of techniques to try at home.

On today’s episode of the Practical Occult Podcast we interview the enigmatic internet commentator of occult rigor, Cain Helson. From behind adorable cat photos, he has opined on witchcraft traditions, off-the-beaten-path sorceries of the wild world and the reality of out-of-body travel. Intentionally secretive about his identity and life, Cain has spent years being a constant voice in the internet occult community that says what needs to be said unapologetically. We discuss with him the idea of curses, lifestyle, the lack of passive protections in secular society and more.
