2.23 A Little Holiday Cheer
from BiCurean
Erik & Aicila decided to be festively serious and look into the history of Christmas. It was a fun romp through Roman month long parties called Saturnalia and medieval attempts at economic justice with a Lord of Misrule leading peasants in tormenting the wealthy if they refused to share their abundance. Whatever you believe or however you celebrate, it's a time of year that has been about more than the traditions of modern America. We hope you enjoy this exploration of past to better understand the present. And we very much hope you have a holly jolly holiday, this year. ★ Support this podcast ★ Hosted on Acast.
