The Notorious HPB - Part 1

In the latter half of the 19th century, a fervor overtook the United States. It became the fastest growing religion through the end of the century and is known as Spiritualism. From within this cacophony emerged one of the most influential figures in western esoteric thought. Her name was Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, and the ideas she would make up would spread across Europe and the United States, beliefs that would lead to some really dastardly shit. Join us as Chris takes Marnee through the roots and development of the Spiritualist movement, and introduces The Notorious HPB. Researched, Written, Performed, and Edited by: Chris Setty Theme Music: Slow Fade by Thörr
