Episode 74: Why 13?

from StroongeCast · host Andre & Kirsten Louis

Welcome to episode 74. This week we discuss 'Triskaidekaphobia' or the fear of the number 13. As this episode lands on Friday The Thirteenth it felt like a good time to break down some of the superstitions around the number, the day, how it's had a cultural impact on society, and the fact that other places around the world have superstitions about different numbers that are not thirteen at all.
