The Real Illuminati Beyond Pop Culture Lies with Josef Wäges

The Illuminati are arguably the most notorious secret society ever to have existed, and at the same time they are perhaps the least understood. We look at the truth about the organization, the pop culture misconceptions about the Illuminati, and more with historian, Freemason, and author Josef Wäges for a discussion of the real Bavarian Illuminati and the new book The Secret School of Wisdom - The Authentic Rituals and Doctrines of the Illuminati.

What is the true story about the Illuminati? Explore the truth behind the myths in this episode of the Antidote, with host Michael Parker.
