Jack Parsons (Ordo Templi Orientis Pt. 2)

A trailblazing rocket scientist led a double life as an Aleister Crowley acolyte, jumping headfirst into the OTO after reading one of the famed occultist’s books in 1939. Jack Parsons was always daring and unorthodox — how could he be part of Caltech’s “Suicide Squad” if not? — and his forays into magick were no less extreme. Parsons rearranged his life and marriage in accordance with Thelemic teachings, turning his Pasadena mansion into the hotspot of the American OTO. Parcasters, we have exciting news! Our first book hits bookshelves July 12th and is based on this very show. If you love the Cults podcast, you won’t want to miss this chilling summer read. Grab your copy at www.parcast.com/cults!
