Episode 168 – Survival of the Storytelling-est (feat. Christa Adams)

October begins, and with it, a whole month of special guests! How else would we make this month stand out?

This first episode features the fantastic Christa, who weaseled her way into a podcast appearance by sheer will! Luckily she makes up for it with a fantastic discussion of the anthropological functions of scary stories and storytelling in general. So don’t pretend like this isn’t still a science show!

Grab some candy corn or whatever and buckle in, because October starts… a few days ago!!
