Hey there! Welcome to this awesome episode of the Unrefined Podcast, where we will be taking you on a wild ride through the world of genetic engineering, Mayan lore, and corn. Buckle up!
So, in this episode, our fabulous hosts Brandon, Lindsy and BT are diving deep into the fascinating world of corn. And no, we're not just talking about your average corn on the cob here. We're talking about the genetically engineered corn that has some seriously cool ties to Mayan mythology. How cool is that?
We kick things off by discussing this mind-blowing book called "1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus" by Charles Simon. This book takes us on a journey to explore the origins and unique characteristics of corn. Who knew corn had such a rich history, right?
But wait, there's more! Lindsy and Brandon also delve into the mystical figure of Quetzalcoatl in Aztec and Mayan mythology. This dude is seriously symbolic and has been depicted in ancient Mesoamerican art. We're talking about some seriously cool visuals here, people!
And of course, no mythological discussion is complete without touching on creation stories. Our hosts explore various creation stories in Aztec and Mayan mythology, giving us a glimpse into the historical changes in religious beliefs. It's like a rollercoaster of ancient awesomeness!
But hey, we're not just here for the myths and legends. Lindsy and BT also touch on the potential health effects of corn in our diets. It's always good to know what we're putting into our bodies, right?
To wrap things up, your hosts are kind enough to recommend additional resources for all you curious listeners out there who want to dive even deeper into Mayan and Aztec culture. We've got your back!
So there you have it, folks. Get ready to have your mind blown by the incredible world of genetic engineering, Mayan mythology, and corn. It's gonna be a wild ride, so let's get started!
