In this episode, I look at colour: what it is, where it comes from, and how we use it in magick. WTF is up with colour correspondences anyway? In the science segment (who am I kidding, this is mostly science!), I talk about tomatoes! Specifically, canned tomatoes (how do they work? Protip: not miracles!), and how you can preserve more delicate fruits and vegetables without turning them into mush.I promise next episode will not involve science. Promise promise.Also, I am now on Twitter: @RShShN (www.twitter.com/RShShN)I totally forgot to put contact info in the last show!
