Fireside Chats: Ecology of Souls with Joshua Cutchin

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling

This week, we had the pleasure of speaking with Fortean philosopher extraordinaire, Joshua Cutchin. To say that this guy has been prolific since his first book, Trojan Feast, in 2015 would be an understatement of criminal proportions. In the last seven years, he has penned a series of in-depth books on various aspects of paranormal phenomena. Links to every one of them will be in the description. On top of his incredibly valuable insights, he’s just a really great guy. You should support everything that he does. This week, we discussed his newest book, the enormous and deeply profound Ecology of Souls, a truly exhaustive look the connections between anomalous experiences of all sorts and death. He’s become a great friend and hopefully, this is the first of many appearances to come. And with that, let’s get into it!

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.

This week’s episode includes the following sensitive content:
