Episode description as stored
What happens when a man travels the globe asking spiritual practitioners to curse him—on purpose? In this episode, we explore A Cursed Man, the controversial documentary by Liam Le Guillou, who offers himself as the subject of ritual harm in the name of belief and experimentation. From the veves of New Orleans to the obsidian mirrors of India and the forbidden rites in Mexico, this journey isn’t just about magic—it's about what happens when intention meets vulnerability. Join us as we uncover the raw truth behind a filmmaker’s descent into darkness and the real-world consequences of playing with unseen forces. The episode covers ethical debates, personal reactions, and cultural perspectives on belief, ritual power, and responsibility in documenting fringe spiritual practices.
