146-Scandinavian Folklore: Twinning
The story of Tatterhood is unlike any I've ever read on the podcast, and it's so excellent. The problem? I can't really say much without ruining the story. So check it out, you won't be disappointed. The creature is the tomcod, a catfish that's actually a catfish. It's a lot more off-putting than you'd think. -- "Wavy Glass” by Podington Bear “Fantasy and Denouement” by Podington Bear “Go to Sleep” by Podington Bear “Sandcastle” by Chad Crouch “Rice” by Chad Crouch “Periwinkle” by Chad Crouch “Lemonade” by Chad Crouch “Death on the Battlefield” by Rolemusic Support the show: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membership

144-Viking Legends: The Old Gods and the New
King Olaf has a new guest...named Guest. Guest has a story, an impossible story of gods, giants, and heroes from a time long past. If it's true, it could change everything King Olaf thought he knew about himself, his people, and his history.

143-Japanese Folktales: Crabby
The story this week is the reason you don’t make enemies with a decapod who’s friends with a bee, a pile of dung, a mortar and a chestnut. The other is the reason why you should buy a waterbottle for your next hike, or you might just need to be carried out of the woods. The creature this week is why you don’t want to mispronounce anything ever because it might lead to you being cursed for eternity as a vampire. I’m pretty much already screwed. -- Sponsors: Go to https://SimpliSafe.com/LEGENDS to check out an awesome home security system Learn more about IBS-C at https://ohmygut.info/podcast -- Music: "Trod Along" by Blue Dot Sessions "Fever Creep" by Blue Dot Sessions "Bedroll" by Blue Dot Sessions "Skatepark" by Chad Crouch "In My Head" by Podington Bear "Swing Lo" by Podington BearSupport the show: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membership See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Romulus and Remus are finally striking out on their own, and what could go wrong with two seventeen year olds starting their own city when they are accompanied by a band of outlaws and they have too many weapons and not enough leadership experience and no one taught them how to share?

142A-Rome: Glory
If you're remotely familiar with the legendary history of Rome, you might know about two babies suckling a she-wolf....and that's about it.
