Summary

Who’s to blame for the origins of Werewolf Folklore?

This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) speaks with writer/producer Tracy Sayre about the storied origins of werewolves and whether or not they actually exist. If it’s all just a tall tale, why were they invented in the first place? Does early farming have something to do with it? Maybe the unknown side effects of lead poisoning had people fearing for their lives? Or was it all just collective hysteria? Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation. Beware the full moon!
