Dead Ideas: The History of Extinct Thoughts and Practices - Podcast tekijän mukaan B. T. Newberg and history nerd friends

We go down the rabbit hole today as we explore the possible deep origins of berserkers in initiatory cults and Indo-European wolf traditions. Buckle in - it's going to be a bumpy ride! Special thanks to Faoladh for pointing us at some of the more obscure connections between medieval werewolves and ancient wolf warrior cults. www.faoladh.blogspot.com/ Be sure to support the show at www.patreon.com/deadideaspod to get your portrait drawn!
