[mysterious music] Hey folks, Aaron here. Welcome back to another edition of Deeper Lore, a bonus episode that's designed to be a topical guide for the most recent episode of Lore. In this short bonus episode, I'm gonna dig into our archive of 11 years of topics and point out some older episodes that fit well with this week's newest. And the hope is that you might be able to keep the spooky feeling going well into the weekend and put a handful of old episodes into a new, more powerful context. So let's get started. This week for episode 306, Disorienting, we step into the labyrinth and find our way to the truth at the center of the folklore. But it's not the first time that we've discussed ancient folklore that has managed to stick around and stay relevant. So here are three older episodes that will pair up nicely with this week's new one. First up, episode 111, Inside Job. For this classic episode, we dive into the world of dreams. From ancient Egypt all the way to today, and every moment in between, the topic of dream interpretation and manipulation has led to some powerful stories. I think that you'll love this one, so check it out. Next, download 127, Tipping the Scales. What's more ancient and yet still relevant today than the idea of the mummy's curse? This is one of my favorite episodes, and the journey that it takes you on is definitely worth a re-listen. And finally, there's episode 136, The Third Time. Man's best friend might also be man's oldest source of dark omens. At
