A holiday about love built on goat skins, secret weddings, and a century of checkout panic? We pull the ribbon on Valentine’s Day and follow the thread from Lupercalia’s raw fertility rites to a martyred priest, through Chaucer’s courtly polish, and into the modern marketing machine that tells us care can be measured at the register. The history is wild, but the goal is simple: reclaim love from the script and give it back its backbone. I share candidly about how belief bias makes us easy to sway—why we accept the stories we want to be true—and how that shapes not only holidays but also politics, religion, and our feeds.
If this resonated, subscribe, share with a friend who’s rethinking tradition, and leave a review so more curious listeners can find us. As always I wish you great health, vibrant energy and PEACE!
