Hi everyone. Welcome to Season 2, Episode 10 of Seeking Witchcraft. It's me, Ashley. So today's episode

0:07.4

is with an author named Mortellus. We have a really cool discussion and I really, really enjoyed our interview.

0:14.1

But before I posted, I wanted to give a little bit of a heads up or a little bit of just a disclaimer,

0:20.6

I guess you can say.

0:22.0

The conversation that Mortellus and I have may be a little heavy for some users,

0:27.4

as we do talk about death and death magic and the deceased.

0:32.6

And for myself personally, I am completely comfortable talking about that topic, but I know for some

0:38.3

others, it may be a little bit more sensitive, especially now living in the time of COVID where

0:43.4

death seems to be a little bit more around us and living in a time of, you know, injustices such as

0:50.4

George Floyd. So I just want to give a heads up if this is a topic that you're a little

0:56.8

bit on the fence about. You're not sure if you're totally comfortable listening. I will say

1:00.4

it is talked about in a completely respectful and eloquent way. And I think you would be

1:05.9

really surprised at how great this interview is if you are wary about death. But if you're like me and

1:11.9

totally comfortable listening to it, then I think you're going to absolutely love this episode.

1:16.2

Okay, cool. So that's just my little disclaimer. I also just want to say one other thing.

1:22.0

I want to make this abundantly clear that I am a total supporter of Black Lives Matter. I think that the protests are doing

1:29.5

exactly what they need to do. We're exposing police brutality. We're exposing racism in the

1:34.5

system. I think it's so important what is happening. So please continue to protest, continue to

1:40.3

speak your voice. And please, please, please wear a a mask especially if you're doing this so

1:46.8

thank you to everybody who's been so bravely out there um keep on keep it on guys all right well

1:53.2

that's it for now i hope you guys enjoy the episode and i will speak with you all very soon bye

1:58.6

so i'm going to play a short ad. And in the meantime,
