Episode Six: Bunnies and Eggs and Ishtar, Oh My!

from Equipoise · host M. Ernest Britt

In this episode (that was originally supposed to be a half-length episode but kept me up till after 230AM working on it a lot more than I thought I would because it's such a cool topic to research), I talk about the possible origins of the word "Easter" and quickly touch on how bunnies and eggs might have become associated with this special day. In the end, I'm trying to show both sides of the equation and help us to approach this topic more humbly and honestly. It's definitely my most rapid-fire episode, because there was a LOT to cover. I hope this benefits you as a resource! Music credit: "Cute Avalanche" by RKVC - No Copyright (Thanks, RKVC!)
