65-Oedipus: Motherboy

By |2018-03-15T14:39:07-04:00April 4th, 2017|Categories: Episodes, Podcast|Tags: , , , , , , |

The story of Oedipus is fun until it isn't. I've met people with varying degrees of familiarity with the story. Some are familiar only with the central premise of the story, while others' knowledge only extends to a certain disgusting little complex popularized by a similarly-disgusting Viennese psychologist. Regardless, the story of Oedipus is [...]

Member Episode 18-Grimm: We are the Music Makers

By |2017-03-31T21:16:06-04:00March 31st, 2017|Categories: Member Post|

The story of the town musicians of Bremen... a tale where the titular characters are neither musicians or from Bremen. You'll see that it's never too late to start again, and that is doubly true if someone is trying to kill you. When it comes to the creature this time, get ready to be super annoyed [...]

64-Frog Prince: Warts and All

By |2017-03-21T22:27:09-04:00March 21st, 2017|Categories: Episodes, MythPodcast, Podcast|Tags: , , , , , , , |

The story of the frog prince is well known - a beautiful princess meets a frog, kisses him, and he turns out to be a prince. Except, in the earliest version, it doesn't go like that at all. I won't spoil it, but the original frog prince is extremely bizarre, and I had [...]

63-Puss in Boots: These Boots (ad free)

By |2017-03-15T12:13:05-04:00March 14th, 2017|Categories: Member Post|

The story of Puss is Boots is that of a cat who wears boots and talks. The character of the cat has somehow gone on to be voiced by Antonio Banderas, take part in a one really successful franchise, spin off into its own movie AND Netflix series. The 2011 movie alone went on to gross, [...]

62-Thor: Hammer Time

By |2018-03-15T15:03:09-04:00March 7th, 2017|Categories: Episodes, Podcast|Tags: , , , , , , , , |

Quite possibly the last episode on Norse mythology before we start on the epic showdown that is Ragnarok, this story has Thor earning a ridiculous facial feature and wetting himself in terror. Also, you shouldn't follow Loki into the wilderness, no matter how good the party he is telling you about sounds, and [...]

61-Solomon: One Ring (ad-free)

By |2017-02-28T22:51:32-05:00March 1st, 2017|Categories: MythPodcast|

According to folklore, King Solomon had a ring. Given to him by God, it allowed him control demons...but it also had some other powers unknown to Solomon, powers that make it essential for fighting dragons, escaping witches, and taking nice Sunday afternoon flights through the country. The creature is a shaggy, mostly-kind monster who is really [...]
