256-Indian Folklore: Tiger Mom
Myths and Legends
02/02/22 • 34 min
A story from India that's like a more awesome version of two different Grimm fairy tales. A woman is promised in marriage to a stranger and we learn that, yeah, that's actually a pretty terrible idea.
The creature is the reason why you don't want pigeons to pity you.

267-Dragons: The Horse and his Boy
Myths and Legends
04/20/22 • 33 min
A story of believing in yourself and finding your own way in the world...by imitating Pokemon and Hodor and wearing flashy suits from your best friend's stone safehouse. From a story from what's now Czech Republic and Slovakia, called "Prince Bayaya."
Coming to a garden near you, the creature is the Jidra, from Medieval Europe. You might think you're a fantastic gardener, what with growing a plant bigger than you are...but you might rethink that when the plant tries to eat you.

274-European Folklore: Murky
Myths and Legends
06/08/22 • 40 min
5.0
Two stories from Eastern Europe where we see why mythological water monsters aren't a great way to discipline your kids. On the second, if a wizard is mumbling something outside your house, you're in for a bad time unless you talk to a witch.
The creatures are the Devil's Dandy Dogs! They're not dandy, not the devil's, and they're barely dogs!

209A-Viking Legends: Bloodlines
Myths and Legends
12/23/20 • 42 min
A Norse saga in the truest sense of the word, this story follows one family through changing times of the Middle Ages. There are cursed swords, Viking love triangles, and why throwing stinky socks at a person whose only desire is to punch you in the face is a terrible idea.
The creature is the Yule goat, who hasn't been burned down yet! Maybe!

197-Viking Legends: VFFs
Myths and Legends
09/23/20 • 50 min
After a ball game goes wrong in the worst possible way, Viking best friends go on a quest to clear their names. A quest that involves poison vultures, evil priestess witches, kings that can transform into dragons, and stuffed animal cows.
The creature is the teakettler! A creature that just wants to be left alone and if you keep hassling it, it will get really steamed...in that it will shoot a jet of steam at you.
