In this week’s episode we take on the heroic task of uncovering the secrets of the Baphomet, one layer at a time, covering every possible angle and hopefully arriving at the closest we can approximate for the truth about who or what this figure genuinely represents. Tim compiled research from controversial sources like the late Tracy Twyman (who famously lost her life digging into this mystery), Julius Evola (of all people) and more medieval Hebrew mystic texts to assure ourselves and you (the listener) that we have left no-stone unturned or crazy, dark rabbit hole unsearched. By the end we might even be able to show you the profound wizard stuff that you probably, NORMALLY, need to kiss or clap booties to learn about. And that’s why they hate us. We remove booty clapping from the occult education system which is technically illegal. In the free side of this show we take a cursory glance at the more interesting and colorful history of the Knights Templar, focusing on the details of their confessions in an attempt to cobble together the details of their shadowy, secret practices. By the time we arrive at the extended show we have already begun to jump into the three loving arms of Priapus and explore his connection with Baphomet, Hermes and his lesser known Arabic equivalents before arriving at the dark connection all of the above have with Samael and Lilith. Thank you and enjoy the show!

In this week’s blasphemously offensive episode we lift the dress on one of the biggest secrets ever told, (if it's true) the hidden history of Simon Peter, the first Apostle and… according to some sources: synagogue spy; a hidden hand behind the establishment of Orthodox Christianity. On the free side of the show we break down who Peter is according to the "normal gospels" and by the end we will discuss who he secretly was and what he was secretly doing… supposedly. In the extended show we discuss exactly how he pulled it off and take a look at some of the evidence which helps confirm the theory. No matter what faith or worldview you have: I'm sure there’s something to offend you in here. Thank you and enjoy the show!

In this week’s episode we wrap up our deep-dive into Nietzsche's era initiating classic: “Beyond Good and Evil” by traversing chapter 3, the religious mood and a handful of his aphorisms in chapter 4; Julian the Philosopher lending historical context and depth throughout. In the free side of the show we focus on Nietzsche's criticism of Christianity and where, he believes, the proper place of religion ought to be. In the extended show we dive into Nietzsche's aphorisms and discuss both the controversial ideas of “slavery,” what that might mean in context and how if any overlap exists with Anton Lavey’s writings in The Satanic Bible. Thank you and enjoy the show!
In the free side of the show we discuss:
Nietzsche’s “big hunt” through the history of the soul — and why a podcast is basically a trophy room for rare ideas
Christianity as sacrifice: the surrender of freedom, pride, and self-confidence of spirit
“God on the Cross” as the most daring inversion of ancient values — the Oriental slave’s revenge on Rome
Religious neurosis and its three dangerous prescriptions: solitude, fasting, and sexual abstinence
Why European theism is dying even while the religious instinct keeps growing
Modern philosophy as secretly (or openly) anti-Christian — but not anti-religious
The great ladder of religious cruelty: first humans, then nature, then God himself sacrificed to nothingness
Why real religious life needs aristocratic idleness — and how noisy modern labor breeds unbelief
The scholar as “arrogant dwarf” who thinks he’s outgrown the religious man
Nietzsche’s real thesis: religion is a tool — a bond of command for rulers, a ladder for the ascending, and contentedness for the many — not an end in itself
In the extended side of the show available on at www.patreon.com/TheWholeRabbit we discuss:
Chapter 4’s blasphemous apophthegms — Nietzsche’s clearest, cruelest one-liners
The devil as the dumping ground for every quality we were too afraid to give God
Memory vs. pride (“I did that” / “I could not have done that”) as early shadow work
Character as fate, duration over intensity, and why attaining your ideal means you’ve already surpassed it
Sensuality reaching the highest altitudes of spirit, the militant man attacking himself in peacetime, and “Know thyself” as a command to shut up and become objective
Salting the truth until it no longer quenches thirst
What Nietzsche actually means by “slavery” (and what he doesn’t)
How much of this Anton LaVey quietly lifted, restyled, and put in The Satanic Bible
Julian’s historical context on the whole mess — plus the jokes we couldn’t leave on the free side
This episode was crammed full of Thelema stuff by Luke but otherwise everyone presented their own stuff faithfully and is responsible for their own words.

19/09/2026 | 1hSend us comments, suggestions and ideas here!
In this week’s episode we continue through Nietzsche's Aeonic Philosophy as laid out in one of his all time greatest hits: Beyond Good and Evil. While the first chapter dealt with an era-shattering criticism of classical philosophy which ended upon a warning about, (having killed the old philosophies) the coming of the new philosopher or Free Spirit. As our special guest, Julian The Philosopher adds some much needed historical context and nuance to Nietzsche's words and sets us up to explore the new philosopher, the first spirit and the Ubermensch in greater depth. Who are those people anyway? Still fresh with excitement from the text, Luke (that's me) fixates on the overlap between the hazy image Nietzsche paints and the mystical poetry in Aleister Crowley’s “Book of the Law,” which outlines, in slightly more poetic fashion, a remarkably similar ideal. On the free side of the show we touch upon Nietzsche's hilarious ideas about race which, despite being a little controversial today, we can still have a good laugh about with good humor on our side. In the extended side of the show we explore the Will to Power as it is introduced in the text and how it lines up with Hadit’s words in the Book of the Law. Thank you and enjoy the show!
In this week’s episode we discuss:
Knowledge vs. Ignorance
The Elect

In this week’s episode we are joined by Julian the Philosopher as our special guest to discuss one of Friedrich Nietzsche's most celebrated and important works of philosophy, his book “Beyond Good and Evil.” If you’ve been following our prolonged discussion with Julian, one big question we are attempting to tackle in earnest is where does Aleister Crowley and the religion of Thelema fall within the moral spectrum found between Homer, Socrates and Fredriech Nietzsche. Because Nietzsche is considered a Thelemic saint we compare passages within Beyond Good and Evil to The Book of the Law while Julian peppers us with historical and philosophical context along with the tea about Nietzsche's utterly tortured love life. As with anytime we’re discussing anything of cosmic importance on this show, the gods try to test us and Julian's electric grid was actively being struck by Thor’s hammer throughout our discussion. This resulted in some unpleasantly low compression at times, so, we ask you to just bare with us and we’ll have it fixed next time. By the end of the free show you’ll have a pretty solid idea of where this adventure is going next time and if you want double the abuse for your brain, we finish the entirety of chapter 1 by the conclusion of the extended episode. Thank you and enjoy the show.
