Today I'm speaking with Paul Mercurio, old friend, current NYC resident, transportation planner and hearth bear of the North River Kindred.
We're discussing books, music, and a whole lotta heathens.
Some of the books Paul mentions during the podcast (Descriptions are his):
For an overview of the Heathen religion, stretching from the Stone Age to the Nazis to 2020:

(Note: Please reference the 3rd Edition, published in 2021. The second edition was published back in 2001 and doesn't stand up to contemporary scrutiny.)
For a sassy and polemic take on the rise on monotheism:

For a fascinating discussion about how Christianity gave rise to the concept of Paganism:

During the podcast I reference an album by one of my all time favorite musicians: Bela Fleck, you can find it here on spotify.
