Episode 178 - Bro. Ralph C. Shelton II

Hello! On this episode, we are joined digitally by Bro. Ralph C. Shelton II. He is a California Mason who we first met at Pennsylvania's Academy of Masonic Knowledge, where he presented on Magic – and Affinity – in Masonry. We discuss his work founding a Magicians Affinity Lodge under the Grand Lodge of California, its affects on participation and engagement, as well as many other topics. Before closing out the episode, we hear from Dutchy Doug and the Masonic News, play Copious Dues, and finally wrap with a travel-weary Larry and the Slow Rolls.
