Premium Episode 42 - the Simon Necronomicon, or, “why is Peter Levenda like this?”, or, “y’all ain’t ready for this conversation”, feat. Dr. Pig Bodine
[originally published on Patreon Aug 29, 2022] Today's all about the Simon Necronomicon as explained by the book 'Dead Names', also written by "Simon" aka Peter Levenda. I go through Levenda's early life, as reported by Levenda, which CJ describes as having "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" vibes. I attempt to cross-reference what I can to external sources, and we explore the subterranean world of the wandering bishops. We discuss the Necronomicon text, its purported origins and the backstory that Levenda provides. We talk about the Witch Wars, the nature of witchcraft, and how the Necronomicon is attempting to teach us not that aliens are demons, but that demons are aliens. In turn, this contextualizes why Levenda took what looked like a sharp turn into Ufology later in life. Finally, we try to answer the question "why is Levenda like this?"
