EP 24 | Baba Boomer Yaga
Kimmy Hammons • Aloreing Podcast Episode • 5/25/2022
Hey Campers, this week we will be looking into the folklore of a popular Slavic female icon. Both Kimmy and Ryan will be discussing the legend of the magical Baba Yaga. We will be diving into the possible origins of classic fairy tales like Cinderella, a boomer that avoids property tax, and the church’s true feelings of an independent woman. We hope you enjoy this week’s episode! And remember campers, if someone is gonna roast you, roast them first and your next rpg character should be Koshchey the Deathless.
Support the podcast and help keep the campfire burning!
