67. Carl Abrahamsson & Mitch Horowitz // Anton LaVey, Real Magic & the Nature of the Mind
Look, I’m not gonna lie to you - we have a pretty badass show this time around. Carl Abrahamsson and Mitch Horowitz are in the house.
Carl Abrahamsson is a Swedish freelance writer, lecturer, filmmaker and photographer specializing in material about the arts & entertainment, esoteric history and occulture. Carl is the author of several books, including a forthcoming title from Inner Traditions called Occulture: The Unseen Forces That Drive Culture Forward.
Mitch Horowitz is the vice-president and executive editor at TarcherPerigee, a division of Penguin Random House, and the author of One Simple Idea: How Positive Thinking Reshaped Modern Life, and Occult America, which received the 2010 PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Award for literary excellence. Mitch is currently in the midst of publishing a series of articles on Medium called Real Magic.
And it is that series paired with Carl’s book that lays the foundation for our conversation here today.
