Hey, welcome to No Way Jose.

Today we are joined by William Ramsey.

This is completely coincidental.

This is dropping on a Friday of 13th, but today we're talking about Alastair Crowley.

Pleasure to have you with us today, William.

How are you doing?

I'm doing good. Thanks for having me. Good to you again. Yeah, it's good to have you back.

I've been seeing you've been having Austin on quite a bit, so it's kind of cool to see you guys,

you guys paling around, my old co-host. But here we are today talking about Crowley. You've written a couple books on him. I thought it was only the one, but I guess

you wrote another one. Was it the Children of the Beast? I forget what you said the second one was.

So that one is more, I guess, about his legacy and his followers. So I'm looking forward to

this conversation today. I guess probably a good place to start. Because in these peer of politics

circles, I feel like I mean we talked

about this a little bit before we started uh it's it's all too common that he comes up and people

and it's just kind of brought up as like assumed people know what they're talking about but it's just

almost just like uh people are too too scared to admit they don. So, and I have no problem admitting it.

I think, like, the extent of my looking into Crowley is I believe it was last podcast

in the left, I like listened to their series a while back, and it was like something

in the realm of like 10-ish hours.

It was pretty good.

It was entertaining.

It was a good little, I feel like there might have been some things I missed in which obviously, you know, you maybe you would agree if you listened to it as well. I'm not sure. But yeah, so we're getting into that today. So with Crowley, I guess a good place to start. Who is he? Kind of, who is he kind of set time, like the setting where he's from, just start their basics,
