Our Editor's Take

In every Your Average Witch Podcast, host Clever Kim invites a guest on the show to discuss the topic of witches. They touch on tarot, witch practices and rituals, and more. Being a witch themselves, Clever Kim knows all the right questions to ask.

Many witches in Your Average Witch Podcast have interesting hobbies or jobs. Some have authored books, some are band members, and many have families. There is a true blend of people who join the show.

Most episodes of the show are around an hour long. Sometimes, though, Clever Kim will form a connection with the guest, and they will talk for over two hours. For example, Marjorie, the Punk Priestess, talks about her family's psychic intuition. Theresa Mariesa discusses the three big influences in her life (one of which is her roommate). And Aeiden Swan details how her life has changed so much over the years.

Even if listeners don't identify as witches themselves, there is still much for them to enjoy in this podcast. Every guest is a witch, it's true. But they're also relatable and creative people in many other regards.

Clever Kim has a quiet charisma that allows them to connect with guests from all over. They're able to get to the core of each witch. And their calming tone creates an easy listening experience.
