Hey, folks, Aaron here.
Welcome back to another edition of Deeper Lore.
It's a bonus episode that's designed to serve as a topical guide to the most recent episode of lore.
Have you ever wondered where you can find more episodes on the topic that you just heard about?
Maybe this particular type of folklore got you interested in keeping the vibe going, or the newest episode of lore made you want to go deeper into a particular topic.
Well, that's the purpose behind Deeper Lore.
In this short bonus episode, I will dig into our vast archive of 10 years plus episodes and point out some old ones that fit well with this week's newest.
The hope is that you can keep this spooky feeling going well into the weekend, putting a handful of episodes into a new, more powerful context.
So let's get started.
This week, for episode 289, Shake It, we look into various traditional dances and how they have become vehicles for folklore, power, and fear, specifically within Native American cultures.
But it's not the first time that we've discussed indigenous folklore, so here are three older episodes that should pair up nicely with this week's new one.
First, episode 18, Hunger Pains.
Most people have heard of the Native American legend of the Wendigo, but few know the frightening facts at its center, or how those stories once led to real-world tragedies.
Give this classic episode a listen to learn more.
Next, download episode 48, Downriver.
This 2016 episode digs into some incredible folklore surrounding an early Illinois settlement, its interactions with the local indigenous peoples, and some prophecy and curse tales that resulted from that collision.
I love this oldie, so hopefully you will too.
And finally, there's episode 101, Worn Away.
For this last pick, we go deep into some of the creepiest folklore in America by taking a look at a place known as Skinwalker Ranch.
With a mix of Native American folklore, otherworldly invaders, and impossible creatures, this old classic punches hard.
And there you go.
Follow up this week's brand new episode with a trip into the past.
