Welcome back to the LIFE SPAN PODCAST, your weekly passport to the planet's most perplexing past.* This week, prepare for a deep dive into the frankly bonkers biography of a figure you think you know.

We'll unearth the glitchy breadcrumbs that connect a humble bishop in Myra to legends of demonic battles and a mysterious, ever-flowing "manna" from his tomb. Trust us, the "wait, what?!" moments come standard with this saint.* Join us as we embark on another weekly road trip into the weirdest moments of history, proving once again that truth can be stranger – and far more entertaining – than fiction.* Because history isn't always what it seems... it's often a lot weirder.* Follow.
