Life and everything we know about is just a story. And this story and all the others that create our consensus reality originated with the nonverbal and verbal passing on of information through grand tales of adventure, danger and intrigue. And within those stories, are so many vivid and often frightening characters. Puppeteer Mike Patrei has been bringing these creatures and characters to life with Puppet Paranormal.

He joins me to discuss the tradition of oral history and how he found himself in the worlds of puppets and the paranormal. We have a special drop-in guest, one of the most legendary characters who has been frightening misbehaving children for centuries - Baby Yaga.
