Episode 10 – Maui, His Brother Maui, and His Other Brother Maui
This week on MYTH, it’s a Polynesian demigod with a big fishhook and a bigger ego. This is the first episode in our 3-episode series called “Disney Lied to Me,” where I’ll be taking a famous Disney musical and ruining it by telling you the sexual, blood-soaked story behind the singing animals. In this episode, you’ll discover that casting your infant into the sea can give them magic powers, that Maui would do anything for love, including that, and that screwing up a ritual can have dire effects. Then, in Gods and Monsters, it’s the sexy seductress who might also be a giant lizard.
