The Witch Wave

Pam Grossman launched The Witch Wave in 2017 and has since built it into one of the most polished and well-regarded shows at the intersection of magic, art, and culture. Now in its ninth season with 172 episodes, the podcast features Grossman interviewing a remarkable range of guests—perfumers working with alchemical principles, sacred dancers, liberation-focused witches, poets who treat language as spellcraft. The conversations consistently manage to be both intellectually rigorous and genuinely warm. Grossman is also the author of Waking the Witch and runs a Patreon that offers bonus episodes, detailed show notes, and monthly online rituals, which gives you a sense of how invested the community is. The 4.9-star rating from over 1,500 reviewers makes it one of the highest-rated spirituality podcasts on Apple Podcasts, full stop. Episodes release biweekly and typically run about an hour. The production is clean and professional without feeling corporate. What sets this apart from other witchcraft-adjacent shows is Grossman's background in art curation and cultural criticism—she treats magical practice as a creative discipline, not just a spiritual one. The result is a show that feels literary and grounded at the same time.
