Episode 5 - Spooktacular Special Part 1

Folklore on the Rocks

10/21/18 • 77 min

October is our favorite time of year so we wanted to bring you something a little different, in the form of real-life ghost stories and creature encounters. Tales like these are the seeds that folklore springs from. We hope you enjoy them, because we certainly did!

This and next week's episode are a little different than usual in that we have a special guest! That means there is more commentary, it's a little more casual, and we talk about things we usually don't touch on in our normal episodes - but, whether you're a believer or a skeptic, all opinions and views have value and veracity. As we discuss in part 1 - each person's reality is entirely different from everyone else's. And we all really live in the matrix, anyway. ;)

Cocktail of the week (well, 2 weeks): The Grave Robber. See here for recipe and pics: http://folkloreontherocks.com/show-notes-for-episode-5-spooktacular-special-part-1

If you have any personal stories about creatures, monsters, or cryptids (even if you don't know what it was), please email us at [email protected] so we can eventually do a listener episode (similar to this but more creature-based)! Visit us at folkloreontherocks.com for more in depth notes, links, and pictures.

Once we hit 100 iTunes reviews, we'll release a bonus episode with a listener selected creature! Please rate and review us when you have a moment, as it will help us immensely!

Episode 3 - The Grootslang

Folklore on the Rocks

10/07/18 • 60 min

This week we go spelunking (figuratively, obvs) into the "Wondergat" or "Wonder Cave" that is home to the South African Cryptid, the Grootslang. Some sources say The Grootslang (or Grote Slang, Dutch / Afrikaans for "Big Snake") is a GIANT cobra (40 feet / 12 meters long), and some differ and say it has the head of an elephant and the body of a snake. Either way, it lives in the Richtersveld in South Africa and hoards gems (especially diamonds). We talk about the characteristics of the Grootslang, how it may have come to be (Dutch settlers or the indigenous Nama people, or a mishmash of both?), when the hell battery powered flashlights came about, why the Grootslang covets gems, and most importantly, what alignment it (and we are). We read a couple of excerpts from 'first-hand' accounts in the early-mid 1900s, and stress the importance of NOT BUYING blood diamonds, and don't recommend traveling with dynamite. If you have any personal stories about creatures, monsters, or cryptids (even if you don't know what it was), please email us at [email protected] so we can eventually do a listener episode! Visit us at folkloreontherocks.com for more in depth notes, links, and pictures. Once we hit 100 iTunes reviews, we'll release a bonus episode with a listener selected creature!
