Description

Jason Weiser and Carissa Weiser tell stories from myths, legends, and folklore that have shaped cultures throughout history. Some, like the stories of Aladdin, King Arthur, and Hercules are stories you think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories you might not have heard, but really should. All the stories are sourced from world folklore, but retold for modern ears. These are stories of wizards, knights, Vikings, dragons, princesses, and kings from the time when the world beyond the map was a dangerous and wonderful place.

🪲They're not so different🪲 One is the king of the world, and the other is a beetle. One wants to fight God, the other wants to wear golden horse shoes. When it comes to being completely arrogant and insufferable, though, they have more in common than you might think. It's two fairy tales of pride and power from Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen. 😈 The Creature: The Elle-folk They're NOT elves. They just look and act like them and have a very similar name but if you say they're elves hope you enjoy your VERY sick cow. --- Links: 📚️ Fictional is back!: https://fictional.fm/subscribe 💬 Discord: https://myths.link/discord 📷️ Instagram: https://myths.link/instagram ✍️ Bluesky: https://myths.link/bluesky 📼 YouTube:https://myths.link/youtube 📖 Source 1: https://myths.link/wicked-king 📖 Source 2: https://myths.link/beetle ⚠️ Disclaimer: https://myths.link/416 --- 📢 Sponsors Function Health: The first 1,000 get a $100 credit toward their membership.

Go to https://homechef.com/legends. --- Info on the science behind Pacagen: The vast majority of cat allergies are triggered by a single allergen called Fel d 1. Your allergies are triggered when you breathe in or come into contact with this allergen. But if that allergen is broken down or neutralized before you come into contact with it, there’s nothing to trigger your allergies! Pacagen’s Cat Allergen Neutralizing Spray is especially safe because the WhiskerBlock proteins powering the formula are extremely specific. That means that they do one thing and one thing only – bind to and neutralize Fel d 1. With this level of specificity, you can avoid pesky side effects caused by other ingredients that other companies use that have other effects beyond just stopping the allergens that trigger your cat allergies.  --- 🎵 Music Credits "Edgeworthia" by Chad Crouch "Pilgrim's Progress" by Chad Crouch "Dune Lullaby" by Blue Dot Sessions "Thule Racer" by Blue Dot Sessions

I absolutely love the 'Myths and Legends' podcast! The storytelling is captivating and immersive, bringing ancient tales and folklore to life in a way that's both entertaining and educational. https://www.spreaker.com/episode/eco-friendly-cake-box-solutions--60801552

My favorite podcast, I've been a listener since Episode 1, and through Fictional, Best of the Worst, and Scoundrels. Great driving accompaniment, better than caffeine!

correction: mores, not "morays"

Initially fun, light-hearted, whimsical, & enjoyable, the INSECENT insertion of modern day post-modern morays was too much to bear. The practice is distracting; it diminishes the value and mutes the understanding of the originally intended messages. If they had presented the stories with a strict(ish) historically cultural viewpoint, while keeping the necessarily anachronistic humor, it could be more than a C+ average; it would be something you would feel compelled to recommend to everyone you know, regardless of their personal, familial, religious, or political foundations.
