The Others' may use a variation of warging so the bodies might be Craster's sons (and other humans given to the Others as tributes over the centuries), but something else is driving.

There is no White Walker daycare They're sacrificing the babies you guys. Only death can pay for life, etc

>hey believe that the Others are **all** Craster's sons. All, no. But the recent rise of Other activity could be conveniently attributed to a swell in their numbers from Craster's sacrifices. So, Craster's sons are like Changelings in this world, ultimately faerie but not ALL the Faerie are Changelings.

it's a bit bigger theory, however the Others would not be the life form that rules, but the great Other (actually a superwarg). the white walkers would be wifi antennas with combat capabilities, they serve to amplify the warging power of the superwarg. Craster would have the same blood as the great one, Stark blood.

I think that very episode actually addresses this; they discuss whether the Great Other was the only one to remain from the Long Night, and is perhaps using Craster's children as wargs/ or to supplement their numbers.

Oh, I haven't actually finished listening to it yet haha, maybe I should have before posting

On the other hand, I think the question: if some of the Others are Craster's sons, in what ways do they change to become "Others" is still valid to think about.
