Episode 7 – How to Lose a God in 10 Days

This week on MYTH, it’s one of the world’s first chick flick stories.  After listening to the Falling in Love Montage podcast, I’m pretty sure this story hits a lot of the standard tropes.  You’ll meet the archetype for the bitchy mother in law, hear why it might be a good idea to feed the…

Episode 4 – When God Gives You Murder, Make Murder-Aid

This week on MYTH, it’s a story near and dear to my heart; it’s the Norse account of the invention of beer.  It’s everything you’d expect a Viking story about alcohol to be! It has Odin being a sneaky dick (because sky gods are assholes), Thor doing a bad job of being sneaky, and fights with…
