| 6/21/26 | ![]() 21st Century Alchemy: LITHA 2026 with Tree Carr and Eliza Swann | Happy Litha! Happy Summer Solstice! Happy longest day of the year!! Today we gather with Eliza Swann and Tree Carr to explore a galaxy of 21st Century Alchemy, shining light on a technology of magic, a science of craft. Together we discuss the Witchcraft/Quantum Physics pipeline, telephone magic, consciousness, the creative process, dreams as source, art as prayer, the power of collective belief, imagination, and ideas about god(s). For the solstice, Tree and Eliza suggest noticing that Litha falls on Father's Day this year, and creating a Wake Up spell. Eliza Swann is artist, writer, and alchemist whose work explores mysticism and its relationship to contemporary arts practice. Eliza's latest book is The Alchemical Imagination: Creativity as Catalyst for Radical Transformation. Tree Carr is an author, educator, creative Witch who works in the field of Transpersonal Psychology with a focus on dreams, death, altered states of consciousness, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. Tree's latest book is Technomancy: Tech Magic and Spells for the 21st-century Witch. Tree wrote, “The more I explored, the clearer it became: ancient magic and modern tech weren't so different [...] Magic is all about energy, and I realized tech could amplify it, aligning perfectly with intention.” Eliza wrote, "The violence that capitalism enacts on time, nature, and our sense of connection is completely incompatible with alchemy and magic, which ask us to slow down, listen, and actually feel the soul of things." So let's take some time this Litha to slow down, listen to these Witches, and try to actually feel the soul of everything. https://www.missingwitches.com/21st-century-alchemy-litha-2026-with-tree-carr-and-eliza-swann | — | ||||||
| 5/28/26 | ![]() Remember The Magic - MWRF Part 5 w Asha Frost | Today I'm joined by Asha Frost in the last episode of the Missing Witches Reparations Fundraiser 2026 podcast series. Asha is the author of You Are the Medicine and the creator of two oracle decks, The Animal Elders Oracle and The Sacred Medicine Oracle. She's got a new book coming out this winter called Inner Winter. And Asha hopes you'll support Moontime Connections, a national Indigenous-led period equity group. Together we talk about worthiness, extraction, laughter, a definition of 'enough', and how to find the magic in our lives. Asha says, "I can be powerful and gentle." Today is Thursday, May 28th, which means you've only got a few days left to join the Missing Witches Reparations Fundraiser for 2026. So let's get down to brass tacks. Number one, you make your donation to the organization of your choice, your neighborhood, your heart. We never touch the money, which means you keep your tax receipt. Two, everyone who donates any amount gets discount codes from some of our favorite witchy businesses. So your reparation could easily pay for itself. Three, you'll be entered to win fabulous prizes. And when I say fabulous, I mean one of a kind stuff. There are more than $6,000 worth of prizes available to be won. But I'm telling y'all, the feeling that you get from making a contribution to the revolution, from repaying a debt I guarantee this feeling that you get is the best way that you're gonna spend $10 today. I guarantee it. So with that, I hope you'll join us in this last push for the month of May and the Missing Witches Reparations Fundraiser. Make a donation of $10 or more to your local Indigenous-led support organization. In a world of data centers, we need water protectors. ICE out. Borders equal papers equal fascism. We know this. So look to your heart, find a way to make a reparation, and I promise the effort will come back to you. https://www.missingwitches.com/ep-299-remember-the-magic-mwrf-part-5-w-asha-frost | — | ||||||

| 5/14/26 | ![]() Turn Reconciliation Into Action With Elaine Kicknosway - MWRF2026 Part 3 | Listen Coven, the interview you’re about to hear explores the story of a Sixties Scoop survivor, Elaine Kicknowsway, who took her pain and, with her friend Roxi Cardinal, transformed it into The Sixties Scoop Network, a safe place for herself and other survivors to share stories and heal together. It’s a very small organization, so if you’re looking to make a really huge impact with your reparation donation this year, please consider supporting the Sixties Scoop Network. We talk about grief, language, and coming home. Elaine says, what is needed is "aftercare for loss." Trust me, every dollar that goes to Elaine and Roxi’s work will be noticed, appreciated and used to help people who have suffered the violence of colonialism first hand. As their website says, "Turn Reconciliation into Action" - go to sixtiesscoopnetwork.org/donate and your donation will directly contribute to healing, cultural continuity, and breaking cycles of intergenerational trauma. https://sixtiesscoopnetwork.org/donate | — | ||||||

| 4/30/26 | ![]() We Are Cockroach Kin: Slipping Through The Cracks Of Control | The scariest thing about seeing a cockroach, they are after all, quite tiny and unthreatening, is that if you see one, it means there are likely thousands more hiding in the darkness. This is true of Witches too. Because our numbers are growing, and that’s scary. Because we know that for survival and evolution, adaptation beats control. In the end, our kinship with roaches is an invitation to notice a shared choreography of exclusion and return. Both Witches and roaches have been named as infestations, treated as signs of disorder, and targeted with rituals of removal that reveal more about the fears of the persecutor than the nature of the accused. The Witch, like the roach, is imagined as multiplying, hiding, slipping through the sanctioned boundaries of the home and the body. Yet what persists beneath these projections is a quieter truth: we mark forms of knowledge and survival that refuse central control. We embody our knowledge, our magic beyond our mere brains and into every cell of our being, The Witch carries herbal, communal, and embodied ways of knowing; the cockroach carries an evolutionary grimoire of endurance, adaptability, and life in the margins. We unsettle the fantasy of purity. We expose how systems define themselves by what they cast out. To view roaches as Witch kin, as OUR kin is to recognize that what is called unclean or dangerous often names a resilience and resistance that cannot be easily governed or exterminated. Remember Witches, survival, especially under pressure, rarely looks like virtue. It looks like persistence in the dark, a continued presence where one is not supposed to be, and a refusal to disappear. https://www.missingwitches.com/ep-294-we-are-cockroach-kin-slipping-through-the-cracks-of-control | — | ||||||
| 4/23/26 | ![]() We Are Rat Kin: Worthy Of Every Poem | I have such a strong visceral reaction to even the sight of this animal on a screen that in my childhood my sister decided I must have died of Bubonic Plague in a past life. I’m not afraid of much - heights, spiders, public speaking, none of these things bother me in the slightest, but a single glimpse of that skinny tail and I freeze in abject terror. And much like how we humans have been socialized to think, my fear manifests as hatred and disgust. I see it everywhere - on my timeline, in the streets - how fear turns to anger, how fear turns to revulsion. So today, I turn to the vast tales and skinny tails of Rats, to discover how we are the same, what makes us kin, what I can learn from them and why I should be grateful they exist. I am human, and the best I can do is to examine my fears, locate them in space, time and in my body, question their validity before scared turns to angry, before scared turns to disgusted, before fear turns to destruction. I’m gonna work through this, Rat Kin, with you, not against you. Though even in the writing of these introductory paragraphs, I can feel my stomach starting to turn, my skin starting to crawl, I promise not to turn away. I’ll go with you into the dark recesses of your life and hopefully leave my phobia there, underground. Consider this a training ground, Witches, to take what we learn and use it all as an antidote to hate, as I skulk and scuttle through the sewers of my own mind, to find amid the filth and muck, a warm place in my heart to love a Rat. Today, I am Rat kin. https://www.missingwitches.com/ep-293-we-are-rat-kin-worthy-of-every-poem | — | ||||||
| 4/16/26 | ![]() We Are Seedling Kin - Infinite And Inevitable | Risa reflects on gardens, seedlings, memory, illness, friendship, and the fragile courage of beginning again. Braiding together stories of Montréal community gardens, queer friendship, cancer, parenting, lost commons, and childhood wonder, she asks: how do we stay hopeful when failure is inevitable and the work of living never ends? Through music, memoir, and magic, this is a love letter to all our small bright attempts—to the vulnerable green selves in each of us that keep reaching for light anyway. A song for the wild-hearted, the weary, the grieving, and the still-growing. https://www.missingwitches.com/we-are-seedling-kin-infinite-and-inevitable/ | — | ||||||
| 4/9/26 | ![]() I Am Spider Plant Kin – Everywhere and Unkillable | In this kinship season episode, Risa traces a line from struggling houseplants in a Montreal apartment to global systems built on the use of bodies—human and more-than-human. Through the biology of spider plants, the story of Henrietta Lacks, and a life rebuilt after rupture, this is a meditation on survival, resistance, and the quiet ways we keep each other alive. | — | ||||||

| 4/2/26 | ![]() Sarah Potter - Sober Magic | A conversation with celebrity Tarot Reader and Psychic, and author of Sober Magic, Sarah Potter about sensitivity as power, intuition as a daily practice, and sobriety journeys for witches. We talk about learning to live without numbing out, reframing recovery through Tarot and witchcraft, and building tools that let you stay present with what you feel and how you know. It’s also about showing up for each other—through community, reparations, and choosing repair where it’s needed most. | — | ||||||
| 3/20/26 | ![]() Ostara 2026 - This Episode Is A Spell | To celebrate the Spring Equinox of 2026 we invited the Missing Witches Coven to write and read spell poems, and we gathered together to conjure the magics of poetry, of protection, abundance and ease, to empower the powerless and bring conscience to the conscious-less. We hope that these rhymes will become mantras we can sing in our heads at night to replace the intrusive thoughts, the fear. This is our spell, to be transmitted across the waves and webs, to reach your ears and soothe you, to reach your heart and rile you, to experience the magic of becoming. www.missingwitches.com/ostara-2026-this-episode-is-a-spell | — | ||||||
| 2/19/26 | ![]() Future Histories Of Black Magic 2026 Part 2 | Today we're continuing our celebration of Black History Month joined by two more creators of future histories of Black Magic: Sanyu Estelle and Maria Minnis! Neither Sanyu or Maria could make it to our Imbolc panel, so we decided to do a little bonus episode, and since both Sanyu and Maria are tarot enthusiasts who have written or are writing books about Tarot, and BOTH contributed essays to the book A Confluence of Witches (ed. Casey Zabala) we knew there'd be A LOT for us to talk about. Together we nerd out over holographic quantum multi-dimensionality, aspirations for humanity, love, choice, and free will!! The takeaway: what we perceive as possible is possibly more important than what is possible. www.missingwitches.com/ep-288-future-histories-of-black-magic-2026-part-2 | — | ||||||
| 2/1/26 | ![]() IMBOLC: Future Histories Of Black Magic 2026 | Imbolc 2026 with Lilith Dorsey, Loli Moon, Christena Cleveland, Zoe Flowers, OlaOmi Amoloku, Lindsay Braynen, and Caress Fitch!! We’ve reached that halfway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox we call Imbolc. We light candles as a symbol of the vow me make to our own enlightenment. To learn. February first also kicks off black history month and these two dates combined provide the perfect opportunity to celebrate where we’re going and vow to learn from where we’ve been. Each year, we gather for Imbolc with inspiring Black Witches who are creating Black History with their work. This year we're joined by Lilith Dorsey, Loli Moon, Christena Cleveland, Zoe Flowers, OlaOmi Amoloku, Lindsay Braynen, and Caress Fitch!! This year's theme comes from Nina Simone's song I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel to Be Free, and I asked our guests: How would it feel to be free? 2026 has already proved itself to be a time when we need to consider definitions of Freedom, and to enact those definitions in our communities. For these Witches, freedom means to be undiluted, uncommodified, unobjectified and unapologetic. https://www.missingwitches.com/imbolc-future-histories-of-black-magic-2026-how-it-would-feel-to-be-free/ | — | ||||||
| 1/5/26 | ![]() What To Expect in 2026 with the Visionary Woman, Kristine Gorman: What Is The Sun And The Moon For Me? | In this episode of The Missing Witches Podcast, Risa Dickens speaks with visionary painter and leading tarot reader Kristine Gorman, creator of the Visionary Woman Tarot deck. Kristine reflects on a year marked by grief and creative breakthrough, sharing how loss, devotion, and artistic risk shaped the making of her deck and her evolving relationship to spirit and message-making. Kristine reads for what we are keeping from 2025, and what is coming in 2026. | — | ||||||
| 12/21/25 | ![]() It's The Missing Witches Yuletide Special 2025!!! | IMAGINE: it's the Winter Solstice, it's cold and dark outside, sintering snow blankets and quiets the world. But the Coven is together, celebrating the shadow time. Suddenly, the power goes out. The lights go off. The music stops. The only sounds we hear are each others' voices and the crackling of the fire. We gather to huddle around the hearth, wrapped in blankets, cider still warm in our mugs to read poems by candlelight, tell stories and laugh. We are Witches, we make our own light. Merry Yule. Happy talking together. www.missingwitches.com/its-the-missing-witches-yuletide-special-2025 | — | ||||||
| 10/31/25 | ![]() Samhain 2025 - Trust Fall Into Mystery With Pam Grossman | For Samhain this year - the halfway point between autumn equinox and winter solstice - we’ve invited a Witch who needs no introduction, but we'll her one anyway: Pam Grossman is a writer, curator, teacher, and Witch. You may know her as the host of The Witch Wave podcast, or as the author of Waking the Witch: Reflections on Women, Magic, and Power, a book that has become a touchstone for our coven and for contemporary witches everywhere. Pam’s new book is Magic Maker: The Enchanted Path to Creativity. www.missingwitches.com/samhain-2025-trust-fall-into-mystery-with-pam-grossman We talk about Magic Maker (spoiler alert: we LOVED it), comedy, vulnerability, erasing the line between spirituality and creativity, David Bowie, Jinkx Monsoon and much more. Pam says that creativity requires a trust fall into mystery, “We’re dealing with mystery, we’re making things that have never been made before! It’s supposed to be uncomfortable and fucking weird!” | — | ||||||

| 10/23/25 | ![]() Maya Deren - The Cardinal Points And The Points Between | Maya Deren — witch of the lens, socialist of dreamtime, fugitive from the machinery of capital — transformed the moving image into a site of ritual. Her films Meshes of the Afternoon, At Land, Ritual in Transfigured Time, Divine Horsemen: The Living Gods of Haiti and Witch's Cradle dissolve boundaries between dream and waking, art and ceremony, self and spirit. She built a new language for film and died in poverty. She wrestled with addiction; her collaborations, including with her much younger husband Teiji Ito, shimmer with both creative brilliance and the complexities of power. | — | ||||||
| 10/20/25 | ![]() WF GB Jones - Sacred Rebellion | G. B. Jones is a Canadian artist, filmmaker, musician, and publisher of zines, known for her vast contributions to both queer and punk media. She initially gained recognition for her work in the fanzine J.D.s, which she co founded and co-published with Bruce LaBruce. GB also co founded and performed with the experimental post-punk band Fifth Column who became mothers of feminist punk. She has directed several films, including The Troublemakers, The Yo-Yo Gang, and The Lollipop Generation. And Her artwork continues to be shown worldwide. For me, as a punk kid growing up in Southern Ontario in the 90s, GB’s influence loomed large - someone whose work literally changed the world as I knew it. Kathleen Hanna said: Well if I can ever be of help to draw attention to G.B. Jones’s art-I mean she did so much for me in my twenties in terms of informing my identity as a writer and musician and performer, I really could never repay her. So the more people can learn about her, the happier I am. Zine Queen Vaginal Davis insists: there wouldn’t be a riot grrl movement without Fifth Column GB Jones invented the terms Homocore and Queercore in the 80s, kicking off the modern reclamation of the word Queer. So when GB put out a book earlier this year called Witches, i thought yesssss - here’s my chance to chat with a punk icon. The Zoom meeting was set, the coven gathered and GB’s laptop chose that night to bite the dust. No problem, we’ll figure it out... Remember how last week we talked about Killing Joke, and the potential contained within destruction? Here’s great example. GB’s laptop bit the dust, but it just so happened that I was going to be in her home town, Toronto, the following weekend. So GB agreed to meet me in person! The interview you’re about to hear is as old school as it comes. GB and I found a quite corner in her local public library - you’ll hear room sounds, ambient noises as we talk in half whispers that I recorded live with a field recorder balanced on a pile of books. After we finished recording, we went out for coffee and gabbed more about our lives. GB has offered to play xylophone on a track for my new band. I lamented how impossible it is to find Fifth Column on vinyl, and GB told me that a reissue is in the works, that she and Caroline could come on the pod together next spring as Fifth Column to dive deeper into feminist punk… So we had a disaster - zoom call fail - but that disaster led to something so much more - GB and I formed a face to face human connection that I know will bear future fruit. This is anti anxiety medication. To know that things going wrong might be making way for something better. I met up with GB at a public library, and we sat in this third space to talk about rebellion, making connections and building communities before the internet, the intersection of Witch Queer and Punk, self-fulfilling prophecy, adversity and courage. www.missingwitches.com/ep-281-wf-gb-jones-sacred-rebellion | — | ||||||
| 10/16/25 | ![]() MW Killing Joke - We Must Dream Of Promised Lands | Join me today, in tombs, in sweaty smoky clubs, LSD soaked recording studios, in a circle of magic that declares, ‘let success be your proof’. That place in the cosmos where Jaz Coleman’s vocals, and keyboards, Kevin “Geordie” Walker’s guitar, Martin “Youth” Glover’s bass and Paul Ferguson’s drums come together in sonic witchcraft that cast a spell on everyone who came after: from Nirvana and Soundgarden, to Metallica and Skinny Puppy, Ministry and Tool, to Nine Inch Nails all claiming Killing Joke as inspiration. Robert Smith of The Cure once described Killing Joke’s early records as “terrifying and beautiful.” Something that he channeled for his own music - and something we as Witches can relate to ourselves. The terrifying beauty that is Witch, that is truth. A beauty that can only be found beneath the shadows. Join me today to discover the profane and ritual history of Killing Joke. www.missingwitches.com/ep-280-mw-killing-joke-we-must-dream-of-promised-lands | — | ||||||
| 10/14/25 | ![]() WF Liv Albert of Let's Talk About Myths, Baby: I'm An Atheist Witch Who Talks To The Ancient Sources | "I'm an atheist witch who talks to the ancient sources. I'm not, but I am." Risa Dickens of Missing Witches joins forces with Liv Albert of Let’s Talk About Myths, Baby! for a deeply feminist, gleefully nerdy, and profoundly honest conversation about witches, overwhelm, ancient Greek goddesses, and what it means to “fuck with the patriarchy” across time. From Circe’s island of wild women to Rome’s fear of crones, from Helen’s potions to the politics of preservation, Liv and Risa unspool how mythology itself has been edited by empire and misogyny—and how reclaiming these stories might help us heal our collective memory. | — | ||||||
| 10/13/25 | ![]() WF Dr. Cyndi Brannen - Hekate The F*CK Out Of It | Hekate has always lived at the crossroads — between worlds, between forms, between ways of being. In this episode, Dr. Cyndi Brannen, former psychologist and director of research turned Hekatean priestess and teacher, joins Risa to explore Hekate’s innate queerness, fluidity, and multiplicity. From myth and archaeology to lived experience, they trace how Hekate guides us through thresholds, offers radical autonomy, and reveals the sacred in the margins. From her home on coastal Nova Scotia, Dr. Brannen smiles and declares: “Queer is normal around here.” | — | ||||||
| 10/9/25 | ![]() MW Lydia Cabrera - Admit To The Reality Of The Unreal | Lydia Cabrera crossed boundaries of love, nation, and spirit. This episode traces her queer life, her recordings of Afro-Cuban sacred traditions, and the archive she built in exile — an altar of memory, care, and resistance. | — | ||||||
