Ep. 2 Japanese Spirit Foxes (Kitsune & Inari)

This episode covers Japanese spirit foxes: the inari & the kitsune. Inari foxes are messengers of the rice deity, Inari. We spend a majority of our time on the kitsune, as they are much more mischievous. They can transform, bend time & space, create fire & illusions, and other such things at the expense of other animals and people. The conversation then goes into some of the cultural quirks foxes have inspired in Japan, and the origin of the famous "moshi-moshi" answer to a phone call.
