For centuries tales have persisted of a small number of Jewish Sages and Rabbis with the ability to create life from what was deemed soulless, unformed matter. The few with such occult knowledge were said to have created a legendary creature known as the Golem.  Seen as a powerful protector in Jewish folklore and demonized by many others throughout history, the Golem remains one of the most fascinating concepts in ancient Kabbalistic records. Could such occult knowledge of divine creature really exist? And, if so, could a real Golem truly be formed? Join us on Into The Portal for a look at the world of ancient alchemy and occult ideas of creation as we search for... The Golem.  Thank you to our Producer, Charlene Ramler, and to all of our Patreon Supporters! Want to support the show?

Admired across Europe from its inception in 1701, the incredible Eighth Wonder of the World known more commonly as the Amber Room became a frontispiece for the achievements of early Germanic craftsmen.    Gifted to Peter the Great of Russia, the Amber Room stood proudly in St. Petersburg until it was theft during World War Two by the official Nazi effort to reclaim all symbols of German heritage and prowess. The infamous Amber Room was lost in the chaotic end of the war, and remains THE most valuable missing artwork stolen by the Nazi Regime.  Join us on Into The Portal for an Encore Re Release of our latest Patreon Full Length Episode, in our search for the Amber Room.  Thank you to our Producer, Charlene Ramler, and all of our Patreon Supporters!
