343: British Legends: Mr. Nice Knight
A knight learns that generosity for those in need is good. Generosity to the point where you're in a worse spot than those you're helping? Maybe it's time to make a budget. Also, why you should follow that very, very stinky man in the woods. The creature is the Hobyah! Despite their fun sounding name, they're horrible. Their victims, sadly, are not much better. --- Amadas: https://myths.link/amadas The Manatea: https://myths.link/manatea The membership: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membership --- Sponsors: Learn from the best to become your best.

338: Norse Legends, Part 1: Mr. Viking, the Viking
Viking is a Viking. His dad was either not very creative when it came to naming him, or had a very specific plan for his life. In his story we meet evil giants, awesome mythological dwarf dads, and the only Viking ball game that doesn't turn deadly...during the ball game. It kind of does immediately afterward, though. The creature is Hogboy! It's a barrow-wight, and it's actually way more terrifying than it sounds. --- Membership: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membership Coddies: https://myths.link/coddies --- Sponsors: Audible: Enjoy and discover audio entertainment in one app. New members can try Audible free for 30 days at https://audible.com/legends or text the word legends to 500-500 Bombas: Layer with the very best and give to someone who needs it at the same time, with Bombas.
