Current Post On Trae’s Blog:
So a lot of you know that I have a Patreon. If you didn't, uh... you do now? I originally launched it for my comics, but it kind of transitioned to being mostly focused on my Witchcraft podcast years ago -- because that's where I had extra content I could give folks -- but it's overall just for "me" in general.
Anyways.
My goal for the last year has been to increase the "value" for Patreon patrons, with all paid tiers getting access to a copy of Super Awesome Action Heroes, and the five dollar and ten dollar tiers getting access to my novels (at different times -- the five dollar tier patrons get them on a year delay).
For a while I had been doing Patreon exclusive "vlogs," but those didn't last just because I literally ran out of things to say in them. I mean, I'm boring. The only eventful stuff in my life is the eventful stuff happening to all of us right now. Back in April, I think I came up with something fun that I've now done two months in a row.
And that's record reaction videos to episodes of The Pagan Invasion.
You see, for the April episode of BS-Free Witchcraft I did an episode on the structure of Satanic Panic propaganda, and used the first episode of 1991's The Pagan Invasion as the example to illustrate my points. For that episode I needed to, obviously, rewatch that first episode for research.
Rather than just watch it in private though, I recorded my rewatch as a commentary and reaction video and posted it as a Patreon exclusive video. And even though the podcast has moved on from the topic, folks asked me to react to episode two... so I did that last week. I fully intend to review the whole series on my Patreon now, and each one of my videos ends up being like two hours long. I don't know if I'll get a chance to do one every month, but I plan to get through the whole series.
Honestly I'm not sure why I didn't think of doing something like this before.
So yeah, we're doing fun stuff there. Oh, also, before I forget to say something -- July is the annual Q&A episode of BS-Free Witchcraft, and I need listener questions. If you have something you want me to respond to on the show, just send it in via the show's contact form by July 11th 2025.

oh Terrence, you just rolled a 1 on your self-preservation roll.
(and now we see the douchiness inherent in the scumbag)
This is where he needs a good kick in the nuts.
But he rolled a natural 20 on his douchebag roll!
Damn, this guy is leaning hard on the “I’m a jerk” button. When do we get to the part where we find out it’s his fault for not patrolling as he should have. Technically it’s not the con’s fault the chandelier fell, it’s a dumbass attendee.
I depends on when it happened, either before or after the room was signed back over to the hotel.
Not going to lie, getting kind of silly how much of a dick he is.
I am going to guess he is some evil conglomeration of assholes you have met over the years.
I would not doubt that. Since Trae has work in the convention scene for many years and has attended a variety of cons in his lifetime, he has run into some of the biggest jackasses you could ever meet. Although his characters are fictional, they are based a lot on his own experiences in life. trust me, I used to be one of the Assholes he ran into when I was a teenager although I was never as bad as Terrence here.
SOMEONE KICK HIM IN THE BALLS ALREADY
There were moments I had hope for a redemption arc for Terrance. Those moments are very much over.
Totally brain free….
