Ep. 20 It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like... Paganism?
Just in time for Christmas, we talk about the many holiday traditions that have their roots so far back it wasn't even called Christmas. From decorating trees to gingerbread cookies, many of the things we do every year were a common part of Saturnalia, celebrating the Winter Solstice. These aspects of the holiday predate Christianity, with most people practicing what's commonly referred to as Paganism. Tune in to find out about the deep history of Christmas traditions!
Plus our round of Nerd News:
