Episode 1 - Creation Part I: The Gods are Giants
Manage episode 331400637 series 3361186
In this episode we dig into where the universe began, how the gods came to be, and where that information comes from. We also tackle misconceptions about the differences between gods and "giants" and the famous "nine worlds" of Norse cosmology. Spoiler: gods are giants but giants aren't giant.
