60B-Beowulf: The Depths

By |2017-02-14T19:53:43-05:00February 14th, 2017|Categories: Podcast|Tags: , , , , , , , , |

  It's round two for everyone's favorite (only?) Geatish hero, as he bravely takes on...his former adversary's mother. Really, it's way more interesting than it sounds. Also she's not Angelina Jolie, but a terrifying, demonic swamp hag. The creature this week is so cute you won't even mind that it watches you sleep. [...]

You know the story of Beowulf. I don't need to do this. But really, there's mead. There's Grendel. There are mead-fueled fights with Grendel. It's just a fun, (kind of) light re-telling of the classic story, minus all the yelling, Angelina Jolie, and eye explosions of the 2007 movie. The creature this week is why you [...]

Many connected stories from Greek mythology. We'll start with story of Hades and Persephone, and learn why she's always hanging around the underworld (hint: it's not because she wants to). Then, I'll tell the story of the curse of the house of Atreus, starting with Tantalus and his questionable food choices. It's a [...]

Member episode 16-Japanese Folklore: Fool Me Twice

By |2017-01-27T23:34:02-05:00January 27th, 2017|Categories: Member Post|

This time, it's the story of an elderly couple, their dog, and the worse neighbor of all time. Oh and also way too much feces because I apparently can't get away from the bathroom humor this week. The creature is knock knock knocking on the walls of the mines warning you about your imminent death...or just [...]

The second story is from the Cree people, about Monster Skunk farting everyone to death because this is a serious [...]
