#057 - Apep Rally

Strange Realm

Tonight we bring you a vernal and verdant episode as we celebrate a blustery Easter Sunday and take a look at a real-life encounter with the Easter Bunny, as well as news that NASA plans to fire three rockets at the Moon's shadow during the upcoming eclipse, a report that the James Webb Telescope has confirmed that our understanding of cosmology is broken, and we dive once more into a discussion of the Runes, this time focusing on the Fehu rune. All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher reads more from "Our Haunted Planet," by John A. Keel.
