Okay, we are live. Hi, this is William Ramsey. Welcome to William Ramsey Investigates on today's show. I have a very special guest. His name is Walter Bosley. Last name is spelled B-O-S-L-E-Y. I've been on his show, and we talked about my book, Prophet of Evil. And then I had invited him on with Todd Wood to talk about the book about Ingersaw Lockwood, very interesting story.

A lot of people listen to that.

I got a lot of good responses for maybe a topic not a lot of people knew about.

So maybe that kind of found something in their minds.

They were curious about finding out about it.

But I saw his other books, Walter Bosley's written many many books and I came across one that had

crowley on the cover and I was like oh i got a i'm interested in this amongst other things

i was talking to him about sir richard burton he wrote a book about sir richard burton why

is associated kind of with crowley that was really one of crowley's heroes of sir richard

burton and he styled his life and his adventures on sir richard kind of with Crowley. That was really one of Crowley's heroes, Sir Richard Burton.

And he styled his life and his adventures on Sir Richard Burton.

So Walter has kind of similar interest as I do.

The title of the book we're going to talk about today in the full title,

if you're watching on YouTube or Rock Finn,

is Empire of the Wheel, Espionage, the occult, and murder in Southern California.

And he co-wrote that with Richard B. Spence.

And I've had Richard on my show as well.

You've talked about his books and cruelly.

So I can put links to that in the show notes for this.

But Walter and I are both in southern California

there's a lot of rainier so there's a lot of kind of consternate like people are worried

like when it rains in southern California it's basically like the equivalent of blizzard people
