S 3 ep 2: Neoplatonic Demonology&Texas Brisket - a podcast by Klaus Yoder & Travis Stevens

This episode is all about non-Christian, Greek-philosophical perspectives on demons and their role in the universe that were developing around the formative stages of Christian theology. Neoplatonism would go on to influence late-ancient and medieval Christianity and so we start to track its effects in this episode.
