Bob Dobbs Reads Alan Cabal

Alan Cabal, 2010

Alan Cabal is an American journalist and occultist who has written for New York Press, High Times magazine, CounterPunch, and other publications.

In the Nineties, he performed in the band White Courtesy Telephone. His tenure at the New York Press concluded in 2005 when he resigned in response to Matt Taibbi's controversial satire titled “The 52 Funniest Things About the Upcoming Death of the Pope.”

Off and on from 1979 to the early 1990s, Cabal worked at The Magickal Childe in the Chelsea area of Manhattan, an occult shop founded in the mid-1970s as the Warlock Shop by Herman Slater; the shop went out of business in the late-1990s. Cabal was described in Christopher Knowles’ book Our Gods Wear Spandex as a luminary of the occult scene in New York City, which Cabal had profiled in the New York Press essay titled “The Doom that Came to Chelsea,” when he also shared that he was involved with the administration of the “Caliphate” version of Aleister Crowley’s Ordo Templi Orientis for nearly twenty years.
