Key topics
  • In this episode: the Grimoire launches with more than 250 audiobooks, with the library expected to grow to around 260 soon.
  • The free book of the month is The Secret Teachings of All Ages in an abridged edition, chosen because starting with the full 36 hour version would be too much for most listeners.
  • Founder keeper and monthly initiate memberships unlock the full library, while the free tier gives access to the monthly featured book and community activity.
  • The book club is organized around lunar cycles, with a new moon monthly pick and a full moon live read, creating a rhythm of one book per moon month.
  • The community model includes chapter check-ins, passage discussions, Friday tangents, and a final live book council in the last week of each book month.
  • Darren and Graham describe the inner sanctum as a deeper, earned area of the platform, accessible through participation rather than payment alone.
  • The shelves span Hermetica and occult, theosophy, mysticism east and west, Atlantis and Fortiana, mind and prosperity, weird fiction, philosophy and classics, magic, and power and propaganda.
  • They highlight standout titles such as The Purple Cloud, The Machine Stops, Atlantis by Ignatius Donnelly, The Book of Thoth, Psychic Self-Defense, The Power of Positive Thinking, and The Road to Serfdom.
  • Graham demos Pegs and Jokers, explaining how the online version works, how the cards move pieces, and why it is meant to be played with friends and family across locations.
  • They mention the platform is still being cleaned up and reorganized, including moving some books between shelves and adding PDFs and other support material.
