Myths and Legends

🗡️Ortnit has it all.

The strength of twelve men. A secret, super lineage. A dwarven sword and unbreakable armor. The question is, what is he going to do with it? Start a war to try to date a princess? Start a war to try to date a princess!
😈 The Creature: Tarasque

If it looks like a Bowser, bites like a Bowser, and scratches like a Bowser, it's either a Bowser or it's the Tarasque. If it sings like a Bowser then it's probably a Jack Black.

🕷️Spiders don't have tails, but this one has tales. 

Anansi is one of the most famous folklore tricksters in the world, but we'll see that behind every great trickster...is likely a trail of broken and/or angry people who want to get even.
😈 The Creature: Tsuchinoko 

People are crazy about this chonky snake. I honestly don't even get it.

🔱It's Poseidon's turn.
On the podcast. Not to be king of the gods. He's actually totally not mad that his little brother is king. Because Zeus isn't the king of him. But Poseidon does do everything his brother says. Not because Zeus told him to, though. He just planned to do it anyway, so no problem.
😈 The Creature: The Alan

Just don't boil Alan's kids and you're good.

🗡️If at first you don't succeed, die, die again.

Ian's had a hard life. That life gets even more difficult when he falls in love with a woman who is (not-so-secretly) a deer. And who makes him eat her earwax.
😈 The Creature: The Charles Mill Lake Monster

This week, the state of Ohio flexes its greatest (super)natural resource: quirky cryptids.

🐒 Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, knows a demon shakedown when he sees it.
And what's happening in this town, where people need to pay upwards of $30k (in 2026 USD) a year to a Buddha they never see? That's a shakedown. Does his master, the Tang Monk, believe him? Of course he doesn't.
😈 The Creature: Man-dragon

Hey, just because man-dragon knows something bad is about to happen and shows up there ahead of time doesn't mean he's obligated to tell you the bad thing that's going to happen.
