Barely Researched Facts - BRF Season II RECAP

BRF Season II RECAP

01/07/23 • 8 min

Barely Researched Facts

It’s time for the great recap episode! We’ve done so much this year that we’ve been proud of. We've celebrated days special to us and the world; we had guests on; we discussed everything under the sun – and the moon ! From the fascinating to the bizarre, from cults to dictatorships, from the gruesome (Krampus) to the ludicrous (Moonies cult). We’ve done our best to keep things interesting – which wasn’t very hard to do considering the world and indeed humanity’s ability to be downright weird. Here’s what we got up to this year!

Podcast Update:

If you've reached this far into the podcast with us, it means that you've heard all the Barely Researched Facts had to offer... for now.

After two years of doing this podcast, we're finally winding things down. BRF has been our baby, it's been our place to chat about all the obscure, random things only we find interesting - and we've been so happy to find a tribe of listeners who have tuned in regularly to enjoy this with us. Thank you for being with us on this journey.

We hope we see you all soon, on some other corner of the internet. Stay in touch with all that we're up to by subscribing to the newsletter, Probably Relevant. Link to subscribe: https://mailchi.mp/9aca11ecdab2/probably-relevant-sign-up

Until next time...

Barely Researched Facts is a facts-based show (barely) brought to you by ArtNowThus, a media company based in India. Born out of the infamous lockdown of 2020, the show is a trip down dissection lane – of words. Every episode, the hosts Ragini and Shar choose one word and deep dive into it. Every interesting fact we can find, we research – somewhat casually – and bring to you, pairing it with some good humour and casual chat between two friends.

BRF 34: Holiday - Seasons Beatings, Indian days of Rest and Rearranging Calendars

Getting you right into the holiday spirit, this episode we’ve chosen the word “Holidays”. Ragini jumps right into that holiday spirit with the legend of Krampus, a horned beastly figure from central and eastern Alpine folklore - scaring the poop out of misbehaving kids everywhere since time immemorial. We widen the net and go hunting for the history of holidays, the weekend and how the “Day of Rest” has evolved on the Indian subcontinent and for its many inhabitants.

It's a holiday fact-packed episode, so tune in!
