As the days shorten and winter’s breath creeps in, Kim and Edward drag you back through humanity’s oldest fear: the season that tried to kill us first. From ancient harvest rituals to the fiery nightmare of the Wicker Man, this episode explores the panic, desperation, and creative fuckery our ancestors unleashed in their attempts to bargain with the cold.

Joining us is Chris West, regenerative farmer, bassist for the heavy metal band Medicine Horse, and a man who literally lives inside the seasonal cycles our species keeps trying (and failing) to outsmart. We talk soil, death, music, and the thin line between feeding the land and feeding it people.
