Ep 236: Hoodoo and Voodoo with Dr. Jeffrey Anderson

A review of Voodoo for you! Flora is joined by History professor Dr. Jeffrey Anderson for a very informative discussion on Hoodoo and Voodoo! One of the foremost experts on Hoodoo and Voodoo, Dr. Jeffrey Anderson offers a detailed interview on the history and culture of this poorly-understood religion. David asks questions on how it got started, how it spread and evolved, and what the modern practice looks like. The pantheon of deities is discussed, as is the distinction between hoodoo and even a little bit about zombies. Dr. Anderson provides a veritable king cake of knowledge (with a voodoo doll baby to find) in this episode of Blurry Photos!
