WakingWorld  |  Where Reality Gets a Reality Check   

Delve deep into the captivating realms of the occult, magick, spirituality, and everything clandestine with Dale & Toby on "WakingWorld." As two inquisitive minds on a quest for truth, they pull back the curtains of the mundane to reveal a world bubbling with mysteries, hidden agendas, and esoteric knowledge.

"Have you ever questioned why things are the way they are? Pondered about the shadowy recesses of existence? Or perhaps you've stumbled across a conspiracy theory at 3 AM and wondered, 'What if?' Well, welcome to our weekly ritual!"

Journey with us as we:

  • Explore Spiritual Pathways: From the celestial echoes of ancient divinities to the pulse of today's diverse spiritual practices, we bridge the divide between the age-old and the contemporary. Whether it's understanding the teachings of the Kabbalah, delving into Shamanic journeys, or simply seeking enlightenment in today's frenetic world, WakingWorld becomes your spiritual compass.
  • Confront Conspiracies: The moon landing, the Bermuda Triangle, the secret societies that (allegedly!) control the world - no conspiracy is too big or too small. We sift through layers of hearsay, blending humor and logic, to uncover what's fact and what's pure fantasy.
  • Decipher The Occult: Magick, with a 'k,' isn't just about pulling rabbits out of hats. It's an intricate tapestry of rituals, symbols, and traditions. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or someone who's just curious about the difference between alchemy and astrology, there's always a spellbinding tale awaiting you.
  • Question Everything: If there's one thing we've learned, it's that reality isn't always what it seems. Secret societies? Check. Hidden agendas? You bet. The metaphysical nuances of our existence? Absolutely. We're here, with an open mind and a penchant for humor, to challenge the accepted, always asking that pivotal question - "Why?"
  • Engage with Experts: We frequently invite scholars, practitioners, and the occasional conspiracy theorist for interviews, ensuring our discussions are packed with insights, perspectives, and the occasional hilarious anecdote.

"Life is brimming with enigmas, and while we may not have all the answers, we certainly have the questions. And, let's be honest, a good chuckle at the absurdities too."

WakingWorld isn't just a podcast; it's an expedition into the lesser-known. With episodes spanning 90-120 minutes of in-depth discussions, Dale & Toby ensure there's never a dull moment. Tune in every week to dive into discussions that intrigue, educate, and occasionally, have you laughing out loud.

For those who dare to look beyond the surface, for souls that seek more than just the ordinary, for beings who laugh in the face of the enigmatic - this is your sanctuary. Join us, as we awaken to a world where mysteries are not just whispered about in hushed tones but celebrated with humor and curiosity. Welcome to the WakingWorld.

Episode 67: Episode #67: Theosophy, Freemasonry, and the Liberal Catholic Church

With ex-members having stepped forward to share troubling accounts, questions arise: is this simply a community of like-minded individuals choosing to live an alternative life away from the system, or is there something more controlling—and possibly sinister—lurking beneath the surface? Dale and Toby explore the claims, the cultu...

Bonus Shizz #60: David Irving, Historical Heresy, and the Question of Power

Bonus Shizz #58: Werewolves, Satanism & Ritual Magick vs Living Like Christ

In this episode of Bonus Shizz, Toby dives into the myth and magick of werewolves—not as fantasy creatures, but as potential manifestations of thought-forms brought into the physical realm through focused intent and ritual. The discussion explores the idea of the werewolf as a symbol of the primal, animalistic state within humans, and how that energy can be harnessed or invoked in magical practice. As always, the conversation takes a turn toward the spiritual, circling back to the deeper meaning...
