21 oktober 2026 · 56 min
👻No one parties on Halloween Night like Nera and his friends Lees meer
Because their parties involve making bracelets. And corpses. And making bracelets for corpses.
It's Samhain night, and Nera, a lowly spearman, accepts a dare from his king. It's a simple task that will change his life forever.
😈 The Creature: Ahuizotl
Just a simple dog with a hand on its tail running a protection racket by the lake.

445: Indian folklore: Fake It 'Til You Make It
7 oktober 2026 · 54 min
💪There's something powerful about confidence. Lees meer
Except that, if you're not actually powerful...or generous...or deadly, pretending to be those things can get you in a lot of trouble. Only if you get caught, though. Three stories from South India of people who are faking it.
😈 The Creature: Okuri inu
Look, everyone wants a dog to hang out with them on the dark, scary road at night and protect them from dangerous mythological creatures. The problem is the Okuri Inu only protects you so that it can eat you itself.

🗡️Ortnit has it all. Lees meer
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.

9 september 2026 · 55 min
🕷️Spiders don't have tails, but this one has tales. Lees meer
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.

🔱It's Poseidon's turn. Lees meer
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.

🐒 Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, knows a demon shakedown when he sees it. Lees meer
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.

Meanwhile, all these strange portents are leading disparate groups to a faraway island, all the while there are ominous tales spoken in whispers. It's probably ok, right? I mean, it's Maui. He's always looking out for us.
Right?

17 juni 2026 · 1 uur 1 min
🍼 If your parent goes through the trouble of getting you superpowers... Lees meer
Kind of the least you can do is get them a new house. And fight all the dragons infesting that house. And get their increasingly specific and dangerous medical treatments for their very real and not made-up illnesses.
😈 The Creature: Sisimito
I did not know the Soviets had a secret program to create Chimpanzee-human hybrid. That's almost unrelated to the Sisimito. Almost.

Not Odin, that's for sure. There's trouble brewing in Valhalla, and there's only one man who knows how to solve it: Skíði, the smartest famous man of our world, Midgard. But, has the world of Midgard changed too much since Odin last looked in on it?

Famous for being cute and giving boat rides in Animal Crossing! Don't ask about what he used to get up to before he was a kawaii manga star, though! It definitely doesn't involve eating humans and having multiple anuses!

431: Turkish folklore: These Dreams
25 maart 2026 · 50 min
✨Cobbler Ahmet just wants to fix shoes✨ Lees meer
But his wife wants those sweet, sweet bath reservations, so it looks like he's going to go be the Chief Astrologer to the Sultan. The only problem(s)? He doesn't like astrology, doesn't know how to do it, and starts out by selling his astrology by the side of the highway.
That's actually the second story, because this week there are two stories of two Ahmets following dreams. On the first is junkman Ahmet, who has the same wonderful dream every night...except when it stops being wonderful, and starts getting real, he learns that sometimes following your dreams can be painful. And also weird.
😈 The Creature: Wapaloosie
If you find you're always misplacing your gloves, they might be actively crawling away from you...because they're made from the fur of a Wapaloosie, a half squirrel, half dachshund, half caterpillar.

430: Finnish folklore: Worn Out
11 maart 2026 · 51 min
✏️Osmo is a pretty solid sketch artist✏️ Lees meer
He’s not drawing a criminal, though. He’s drawing his sister, whose only crime is stealing the prince’s heart. And also maybe trying to escape the prison of the sea king, but that comes later.
😈 The Creature: The Jurua
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, there’s the jurua who is taking their family out to a nice dinner…of your flesh. Hope you’re wearing the right creeper.

Is his boss the devil? Literally...well, no. Is the devil that Goria meets in a bar actually better than his boss? 100% yes.
😈 The Creature: Jack-in-Irons
A creature who made it a bad thing to walk around threatening people with a spiky club and wearing human heads. Thanks, Jack.

428: Monkey King: The Pride
11 februari 2026 · 1 uur 1 min
🐺Inside each of us there are two wolves. They are named 'Shifty' and 'Freaky'.🐺 Lees meer
Which one wins? Well it doesn't matter because they're both demons so maybe try to starve both of them out. Or spit in their faces and steal their name tags, like Sun Wukong does. No wrong answers because, in the world of the Journey to the West, anything goes.
But for real, we catch back up with Monkey, Sandy, Pigsy, and the Tang Monk on their travels as they enter year 14 and the final leg of their journey. But are they ready for what awaits them?
😈 The Creature: Intulo
An evil walking and talking lizard who just wants to watch the world die. But only if he has to die, eventually. He does? Ok, then bye, world.

427: Norse Legends: Wither or Not
28 januari 2026 · 55 min
🧙♀️So, you think your stepmom might be a sorceress🧙♀️ Lees meer
Common problem. Well, common for fairy tales, at least. But, have you thought that she might not like you putting her in a box and deciding what she is before you even get to know her? It's something you might want to think about. Definitely because you shouldn't be prejudiced. Also because if she's really a sorceress do you really want to make her mad?
😈 The Creature: Ipupiara
A hairy, smelly merman who's just trying to keep up with the trends.

14 januari 2026 · 1 uur 10 min
🧞♂️Trying to meet the love of your life? Maybe ask for help from two genies trying to kill each other.🧞♂️ Lees meer
Even if you're not trying to meet the love of your life or, like the characters in today's story, actively trying to avoid meeting the love of your life because you really don't want to marry, you still might end up falling for someone anyway. And then maybe dying of a broken heart because that's apparently actually a thing.
😈 The Creature: Ebu Gogo
They will take your stuff and your children...and then ask the children how to cook themselves because no one wants to eat raw children, not even hairy monsters with (maybe) dog teeth.

You spend a night out with friends, hanging out in the dark forest, crashing an ogre party and making dog friends. The only problem? You were out past curfew. Oh, and you came in through the chimney and absolutely trashed your parents' house.

24 september 2025 · 47 min
🐻Ourson is a Beary Good Guy🐻 Lees meer
Sorry, I couldn't resist, but he is actually a good guy. He isn't a bear though. He just looks like one to people who have probably never seen a bear, because he's kind of just a very hairy kid. He's like that because his mom kicked a toad that wasn't a toad and the toad cursed him. Don't worry, it'll make sense (mostly).

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.

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.
