The story of Saint Valentinus and the origin of Valentine’s Day.

This week on the podcast, Natasha and Nick tackle Valentine's Day as they discuss the holiday's commercialization and social media pressures, sharing personal anecdotes and their own traditions.

Natasha explores the fascinating (and sometimes disturbing) origins of Valentine's Day, from ancient Roman festivals to the various Saints Valentine. They also delve into the ancient Greek concepts of love – Eros, Philia, Storge, and Agapi – and how understanding these different types can enrich our relationships.

This annual date gets even more complicated with yet another legend claiming Valentinus disobeyed the emperor by performing marriages for soldiers.

According to this legend, Emperor Claudius II believed that single men made better warriors than married ones, so he banned marriage in his Roman Empire.

However, Valentinus thought differently and continued to perform marriages in secret. When the emperor found out, he had Valentinus executed.

Join them as they rethink the meaning of Valentine's Day and consider how to celebrate love in a more genuine way.
