As a pagan, he currently practices and celebrates the sabbats with a group in Pennsylvania. Overall, he hopes to bring his unique background, interests, and insight to the show.

The Infinite and the Beyond, is an esoteric podcast for the introspective pagan mind. In the show we explore and discuss a variety of topics which relate to life and one's unique spiritual journey. Show topics center around paganism, occultism, parapsychology, science, society, and culture in the 21st century. Sounds like a lot huh? Yea, we know. The culmination of these interests is the greater scope of human existence, the infinite and the beyond, but we intend on placing such issues in a more tangible context. How does one fit in this world? What are the greater possibilities in life? What lies beyond the veil of reality and existence? How much inner-self knowledge is indicative of the outer world perspective? Life is more than just one topic or avenue of thought and so, what lies at the source of it all?
