Naked Diner

Hey gang. Jack and Andy are busy making preparations for our big 100th episode celebration along with a slew of goings on outside of podcast land. So we’ve decided that this week we’d pull out one of the episodes from the archives. Since The Satanic Temple’s Missouri case as been big news around here what with Jack’s blog and all, we’re opting to go back two whole years to the first time we had someone from TST on the show. One thing I found interesting in reviewing this tape again is how the message hasn’t changed. So without further ado let’s go back to the pre-45ian days of 2015 with guest The Satanic Temple’s Jex Blackmore.

Jill Rycerz will be giving a talk this weekend at The Satanic Temple headquarters called “Prayers to the Devil: The Value of Ritual“. One of the criticisms that people make about The Satanic Temple is that it isn’t an authentic religion. If you’ve been following Jack’s blog over on Patheos (For Infernal Use Only) you will have seen a post about all the different ritual events various Satanists are doing this October. These rituals (ed. in my opinion anyway) go a long way toward demonstrating the group’s sincerity. So Jack sits down with Jill to talk about how the Temple views ritual and their upcoming Black Mass on Halloween night.
