This is a Glassbox Media Podcast.

Welcome to Coral Space. I am Tim here today with Lance Lance. How are you today?

I am doing fantastic today Tim. I hope everyone out there, all the listeners are doing great.

But the big question, the money question is how are you?

Oh, thank you for asking. I am doing great today Lance.

And I am so excited to bring our audience this interview, this introduction I suppose to this wonderful author named Mitch Horowitz, who has written some really compelling books.

And the one that we focus on most today is called Occult America, the secret history of how mysticism shaped our nation.

Yeah, that book is so interesting. I highly recommend that. And Mitch Horowitz was described by filmmaker magazine as a genius at distilling down esoteric concepts.

And that is so evident in this conversation. I couldn't agree more with that. Go to MitchHorowitz.com and you can learn about him.

And what he does, he's speaking engagements, he's a writer, he's given lectures, he's done podcasts, and he's just a cool dude.

He's a righteous dude Lance, you're not wrong. And you can follow him at Mitch Horowitz on Twitter.

And I think one reason you secretly really like Mitch is that David Lynch has written a quote about him, called him solid gold, which I would have to agree with Mr. Lynch.

One of the very few times, temporary agrees with David Lynch.

Okay, so I hope you enjoy this interview. Make sure to check out his books and there's a link in the show notes.

But before we go to that interview, we need to tell you about a couple of things. One of them is our new subscription service where we are bringing our listeners, add free episodes of crawl space.

I know, I know you're going to love that. People sometimes people will complain about the ads, Lance. I mean, I love listening to the ads, but if you don't want to listen to them, all you have to do is subscribe to the new subscription service at crawlspace.supportingcast.fm.

There's a link in the show notes, and you'll get all the episodes of the entire catalog, almost 300 episodes at this point, add free.

And we also have an old Patreon show that we've done about 70 episodes of. That's all been uploaded there. That's all there, Lance.

And we have a new show that we're bringing people. It is called the crawlspace crypt, which is a little bit of a behind the scenes look at what we do here at crawlspace and the interviews we have.

Right. So depending on which tier you elect to be a part of, you can get all that. You can bump yourself up a tier and get an opportunity to join a live, ask us anything. That'll be with our cohort, Jen, you, myself.

So that's one of those benefits that you can get from a higher tier will probably eventually start adding merchandise, but this supporting cast platform is amazing. And we've moved from Patreon because we want to offer the listeners something a little bit more special.

And the tools that we need to make that happen are pretty much exclusive with supporting cast. So we're very excited about it because we get to, I guess, spread the proverbial wings. And we were introduced to this by our new partners, glassbox media, fantastic company.
