Episode 22: Superstitions, Shanidar Cave, and the Bacchae

Welcome back dear listeners! We have an eclectic range of tales to share with you this week. Gather round the metaphorical campfire/taco bell parking lot at 11pm as the witches take you through our first ever "randomsode", where we just talk about whatever we want with no cohesive theme. Superstitions? Neanderthals? Divine madness and vengeance? We got it all baby! So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.(EDITORS NOTE: Poppy is aware she pronounced "neanderthal" wrong in her section, she is sorry please be nice to her) Sources:Kindred: Neanderthal Life, Love, Death and Art by Rebecca Wragg SykesKopanias, K., & MacGinnis, J.
