Strange World - Ep. 009 - April 16th, 2023

Tonight we have a fully-loaded and fully-caffinated show lined up. As usual, we have Dr. Raven Black with us in the shotgun seat. We return to delve a little deeper into the Pictish symbol stones, and then discuss the news that even more layers of the Earth have been found - the inner onion continues to reveal new information (and the outer donut awaits further investigation!). We then take a big look into a major principle of the traditional systems of herbal healing - the Doctrine of Signatures. After a trip to the Lunar Sea during the break, Frobisher reads more from "Darkness Walks" by Jason Offutt.
