Mindless Banter 150: Ley Lines
Episode Description
Ley lines are one of those weird topics that show up everywhere once you know what they are. Ancient sites, stone circles, old churches, UFO sightings, earth energy, fairy roads, portals, vortexes, and even places like Skinwalker Ranch all get pulled into the conversation. In this episode, we look at where the ley line idea started, how it got weird, why skeptics think it’s map nerd garbage, and why it still makes for a perfect Mindless Banter rabbit hole.
