Polly Baker w/ Fayge Horesh

We’re a mythology podcast, so why are we talking to historian Fayge Horesh about a historical figure? Well, first off she’s not real. But secondly? She’s such a cool example of a hoax becoming a myth!Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about or mentions of pregnancy, misogyny, anti semitism, colonization, abortion, cultural appropriation, and enslavement. GuestFayge Horesh is a public historian, tour guide, and freelance writer. The creator and host of the podcast “D Listers of History,” Fayge brings her research skills, curiosity, and cheekiness to discuss important but mostly forgotten historical figures. They join their audience in exploring what these often colorful people can tell us about ourselves and our society today. In all the work Fayge does, their primary goal is to make both historical stories and the study of history accessible to everyone. History is crucial to understanding where we are now and how we can build a better world in the future.Housekeeping- TOUR: Get tickets for our Rolling Bones Tour! - Recommendation: This week, Julia recommends getting tickets for the Rolling Bones Tour.- Books: Check out our previous book recommendations, guests’ books, and more at https://spiritspodcast.com/books- Call to Action: Check out Tell Me About It!Sponsors-  BetterHelp is an online therapy service.
