Dave Gaddy is a southern witch (or as he spells it, wytch) and the author of the book, The Simple Magick of Wild Things. In this interview, we discuss his background (including how he started his spiritual journey as a pastor), Appalachian Folk Magick, connecting with our ancestors, and learning lessons from animals. I also learned a bunch of new terms, like "haint," "holler," and "booger woods."

Intentionally Disturbing

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
