Lilith (Katy's Corner)

Hey! Easter is upon us which got me thinking of ancient lore, which brought me to the story of Lilith! This is an episode from our Patreon from 2023, but is still super interesting now! Basically, Lilith is often just remembered as Adam's first wife (of power couple Adam and Eve), but her story is so much more and probably so much OLDER than that of Adam's. Hope you enjoy!
