More Pagan Narrow-casting

Modern Pagan TV is a show streaming on the Web, produced in Denver.

You can watch their first programs by visiting the archives at the website.

I’m sure that this is (part of) the future, but I am not going to stop blogging, me. For one thing, I don’t have to think about what I am wearing—although, contrary to the blogger cliche, I am not wearing pajamas at this moment.

  1. If it weren’t for your posts, I would not know what is going on “out there.” Without television or countless hours to wander the internet, I am lost at sea (at least the sea of Pagan popular culture, or pop culture in general). You keep me regularly aghast. Thank you (?).

  2. I prefer blogs. I can read them at my convenience anywhere I go and I find the content to be more interesting than what’s on most podcasts and web shows.

  3. I agree with what has already been said. I don’t have TV except for what’s on the internet and that leaves a lot to be desired to begin with. Furthermore, I don’t have 24 hours to scroll around wondering what’s going on. I have a life folks! And being on the computer 24/7 is NOT it. I like the fact that you distill the information that’s out the for me. It’s exceedingly helpful.

    Thanks again for your hard work

  4. Thank you, Chas, for mentioning Modern Pagan TV on your blog. Since we’re just beginning — having just produced our first four programs — we are just starting to get the word out that we’re here.

    I don’t know if this kind of programming (semi-professional quality) will become widespread. Here in Denver we had the intersection of several situations: One is that we may have one of the largest and most active neoPagan communities in North America in the Rocky Mountain Front Range, thus there’s lots of talent from which to draw. The second is that we have a producer with 30 years background in broadcasting who is volunteering free studio time and his valuable expertise. The third is that we have a volunteer crew of technical staff and presenters who have committed to creating a weekly show for months or years at a time. Each of these three conditions is somewhat rare to find. To find all three of them in one place is surely a blessing from the Gods!

    Of course, this is not academic-level programming — it is popular culture. On the other hand, our modern Pagan culture tends to be highly literate and articulate, which should make it a notch above comparable TV or webcasts.

    If you would like to be a presenter about your history book, Chas, or if any others have books of popular interest, contact us. We can always Skype you in if you’re not local. (For example, later in February we’ll be doing an interview with Pagan author Kerr Cuhulain. We’ll be Skyping him in from Vancouver.)

    What we are doing is probably of the greatest academic interest to those working in the areas of Pagan sociology, Pagan broadcasting/media portrayals and religious tolerance/ant-discrimination work.

    Blessings to all,
    Jackie Weller
