Description
This episode we’re off to study the Hindu religion of India where… we’ll find… don’t make a dad joke… don’t make a dad joke – we’ll find out where the term better half REALLY comes! Sorry, low hanging fruit is apparently my kryptonite. And for our fact, we’ll learn about an entire group of intersex people blessing Indian couples for thousands of years. Giving you your biweekly does of cheesy and endearing, here… on the Colored Folklore podcast.
