Welcome back to “Off The Boat”! In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on Haitian Vodou—its African roots, its pivotal role in sparking Haiti’s independence, and how it lives on in modern Haiti. Learn how Vodou intertwines with Catholic and Protestant traditions, why doctors and lawyers still consult the spirits, and how young Haitians are embracing their heritage. You’ll also hear about wild folklore like zombies, mermaids, and lougawou, and how superstition can help or hurt communities. We don’t shy away from the dark side either—tune in for real talk on charlatans, crime, and the balance between faith and exploitation.
