Director River V.C. will be invited on Love, Will, and Wisdom star Sellena’s hit Podcast Crossroads and Cauldrons. The episode will be around 30 minutes and will have Sellena and River talking about the documentary, as well as being a young person raised in a pagan household, and what the documentary means to them.

“It was amazing to hear her interview for the documentary. I met her maybe once briefly at an event but Christopher (Penczak) really wanted her to speak in it, especially being a witch from a different part of the U.S. I did a remote interview with her and we ended up talking for a while over the time we planned. She was just so wholesome and had a genuine love for sharing information, it was great.” said Ouellette.

There are over 14 hours of footage from the documentary, currently in ESOCRYPT’s possession which are available to the director and producers at any time. 4 of the hours River attributed to Penczak alone. When asked if River or Longbodyofwater Productions plans to do anything with the extra footage, they said “Yeah, of course. There's a lot of it. I just don’t like sequels…It's not that I'm against them, it just feels a bit disingenuous to make a documentary sequel you feel? Unless something earth shattering happens. But I wouldn’t mind releasing a more uncut version. Think Joseph Campbell Bill Moyer style. I don’t think I ever had an angle with myself in it, but there were definitely times that I kept asking questions to people who seemed to just be enjoying themselves, or naturally wanted to. Christopher (Penczak) and I talked for a while, so did a bunch of people. I remember Elsa Elliot telling the story of how they found the property. The audio got really f***** and I sadly lost the original, but she retold it on a call with me and by then I had already sent the section to be reviewed. I felt so bad. But there's a lot of little things like that I would love to be able to eventually release. Some of it right now is I don’t know if people would be into that, or how to release it without seeming like i’m a greedy S***.
