Hey folks, Aaron here.
In keeping with my newest idea, this deeper lore bonus episode will help you learn more
about some of the topics discussed in the most recent episode of the main lore show, episode
244, Stolen.
If you haven't already listened, this week's new episode is all about relics.
We take a tour of the different types, and guess the Catholic Church even has a classification
system, and of course discuss some of the most bizarre and gruesome examples out there.
But that's idea of using a human body part for some post-death purpose is deeper and wider than you might realize.
So, if you finished this week's episode and found yourself still hungry for more, I've got three old episodes that will satisfy that craving. First, go download episode 113, Word of Mouth.
This classic episode unpacks the weird
and fascinating world of medicinal cannibalism.
From drinking the blood of executed criminals
to the practice of eating ground mummified remains,
if you like relics, you will love this older episode.
Next, for an exploration of the intersection
between human bodies and the legal system,
give a listen to episode 122, The Shortest Straw.
This one is a nautical story that focuses on the criminal trial of some sailors who had
to make the most horrifying decision ever.
It's disturbing and educational in equal measures.
And lastly, download and enjoy episode 128, a hole in the head.
You'll learn a new word, crewntation, and discover how the act of merely touching a human
corpse has its own wild world of folklore associated with it.
Listen now and thank me later.
So there you go.
Follow up this week's episode on Holy Relics with a Trip Into the Past.
Episodes 113, 122, and 128 are waiting for you
in this podcast feed,
or you can find their direct links
in the description for this episode.
And until next time, stay spooky.
