The Masonic Roundtable - 0571 - PHA to UGLE (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Masonic Roundtable, we follow one Brother's path from Prince Hall Affiliated Masonry into the United Grand Lodge of England, and what it means to change jurisdictions along the way. Recognition, affiliation, and belonging look different when a Mason crosses from one grand lodge world into another, and that journey raises practical and fraternal questions that many traveling Brothers never expect until they face them. Join us as we unpack how one man's move from PHA to UGLE
The Masonic Roundtable - 0570 - Ancient Order of Free Gardeners (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Masonic Roundtable, we dig into a lesser-known cousin of the Craft: The Ancient Order of Free Gardeners. Rooted in 17th-century Scotland, where operative gardeners organized lodges for mutual aid, shared horticultural knowledge, and fraternal ritual, the Order grew into a widespread friendly society with degrees, regalia, and symbolism that often mirrored Freemasonry, including the distinctive pairing of the square and compasses with a pruning knife, while remaining its ow

Yet, when adherence to the past turns into rigid stagnation, how do we adapt to the modern world without losing the timeless principles that make us unique? Our panel explores the vital difference between preserving the living flame of our heritage and worshipping th
The Masonic Roundtable - 0567 - Build-A-Body (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Masonic Roundtable, the hosts take matters into their own hands to fix the appendant landscape by pitching brand new orders and side bodies of Freemasonry. Each host steps up to the drawing board to present a completely original order (defining its core mission, visionary purpose, stringent (or ridiculous) membership requirements, and, of course, the indispensable regalia required to attend. Join us for an evening of high-concept creativity, wild regalia pitches, and frate
