We’re back, witches! Season 4 is officially open, and the Stinas are kicking the door wide open.

In this season premiere, we’re catching you up on what we were up to during the break, the magic we were quietly brewing behind the scenes, and why this season already feels bigger, bolder, and a little more unhinged in the best way.

We talk intentions for Season 4, the themes that keep tugging at us, and the topics we cannot wait to dive into next, from folklore and witchcraft to pop culture, history, and the strange little corners where belief and curiosity collide.

Expect intuition, laughter, mild chaos, strong opinions, and the kind of conversations that start as a joke and end as a revelation.

If you’ve missed us, we missed you more. Grab your coffee, light a candle, and settle in. Season 4 starts now, and yes, the Stinas are very much back on their nonsense.

This week, we’re venturing into the shadowed crossroads between life and death — exploring necromancy, resurrection, and the desperate lengths witches have gone to for love and loss. From Sally’s tearful plea for the aunts to bring Michael back, to the infamous “trash witch” attempt that saw Sally and Gillian raise Jimmy from the dead, we’re unpacking how Practical Magic intertwines resurrection with grief, consequence, and feminine power.

We’ll also trace these cinematic moments back through history — to the rise of Spiritualism in the 19th century, when séances, spirit boards, and table-tipping became tools for mourning and mysticism alike. What drew people to the idea of crossing that veil? And why does the line between devotion and desperation blur so easily when it comes to the dead we love?

Light a candle, grab your salt, and join us as we lift the veil on necromancy, the Owens way.

This week, we’re diving into the underworld of the mighty goddess Hekate, or as she’s briefly invoked in Practical Magic’s infamous resurrection scene, “Mighty Hectate, make it right!” We’ll also find her presence woven through Alice Hoffman’s novels, as she guides the Owens women through darkness, transformation, and choice.

Joining us today is Vincent Higginbotham, author of How Witchcraft Saved My Life: Practical Advice for Transformative Magick and co-author of Thrifty Witchery: Magick for the Penny-Pinching Practitioner, both published through Llewellyn. Vincent’s story is one of resilience, self-discovery, and the kind of magick born from survival. Through his devotion to Hekate and a longing for a maternal presence in his life, he’s learned that vulnerability is power and transformation can bloom even in the darkest shadows.

Together, we explore Hekate’s many faces — torchbearer, keyholder, and guardian of the crossroads— and what it means to walk her path in modern witchcraft. Kristina’s hesitations about getting to know the great goddess herself are then put to rest (because sometimes the dark can be surprisingly welcoming).

All that and more about Hekate: The Mighty Queen of land, sea, and sky!

We’re calling bullshit on burnout. In this episode, we’re slowing down and giving ourselves a little self-care after feeling totally drained by the wave of seasonal sickness and ragweed that’s been floating around in the air.

Join us for a cozy chat and a cup of tea as we talk about boosting your immune system, clearing congestion, and—most importantly—letting go of the guilt that comes with rest. Because sometimes the most radical thing you can do is just breathe, sip, and be still.

Also, Justina is spilling the tea on her latest Autumn Equinox “witch party”, that has her asking herself, “AM I THE DRAMA?”…and The Stinas get their first “LIVE and on the air” caller! Who can it be?! Tune in to find out!

In this episode, we journey through Alice Hoffman’s entire Practical Magic universe—from Magic Lessons to The Book of Magic, alongside the beloved 1998 film—to uncover the mysteries of Spirit, the fifth and most elusive element of the witch’s pentagram.

While earth, air, fire, and water are easy to spot, Spirit is subtle: it’s the breath that leaves with Aunt Isabelle, the apparition of Regina Owens arriving with a prophecy, and the invisible threads of love and fate that bind the Owens family across time.

Together, we’ll explore how Spirit surfaces in Hoffman’s stories as astral travel, vision, legacy, and connection between worlds.

Join us as we follow sparrows into the night sky, unearth ancestral gifts, and learn how the often-overlooked element of Spirit might be the one that ties the magic together.

Come join the MURDER, as we turn our gaze skyward to the dark wings circling above the Owens family: The ever-mysterious crow. From their deep roots in folklore as messengers, tricksters, and omens, to their haunting presence in Alice Hoffman’s Practical Magic series, crows remind us that magic is often found in shadow as much as in light.

We’ll explore how these intelligent birds embody themes of transformation, prophecy, and ancestral guidance, and why they continue to appear when the veil between worlds thins.

Join us as we follow the caw of the crow through history, myth, and the world of Practical Magic—and discover what messages might be waiting for you in their call.

This week on Magnolia Street, we crack open one of the most infamous occult texts in history: Francis Barrett’s The Magus (1801): A Complete System of Occult Philosophy. Often called a plagiarized “handbook of magic,” this encyclopedic work pulled together alchemy, astrology, and ceremonial magic, shaping the way the occult has been imagined in both history and pop culture.

However, in Alice Hoffman’s Rules of Magic, the book takes on a more dangerous role. It turns up in Vincent Owens’ hands as a source of temptation, identity, and power.

Join us, The Stinas, as we trace the real history of The Magus, explore how Hoffman reimagines it for the Owens family story, and consider why this dusty old grimoire feels so Practical Magic-coded. We'll be taking you cover to cover, chapter by chapter, and breaking it down for you like an easily digestible morsel. We'll learn what it is, and what it's not.

Is it a gateway to the dark left-handed path like Hoffman portrays it in her novel? Or is it a compendium of virtue and enlightenment for the dedicated practitioner ? Let’s find out together in this thought provoke and educational episode!
