Twilight of the Godlings (ft. Francis Young‪)‬ I Might Believe in Faeries

What are the British supernatural beings known as fairies? Where do they come from? Are they diminutive pagan gods or something else? Scholar and folklorist, Francis Young, addresses all of these questions in his new book, Twilight of the Godlings: The Shadowy Beginnings of Britain's Supernatural Beings.

This show wouldn't live up to its name if we didn't discuss fairies from time to time.
