À propos de cet audio

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. 2015-2024 Bardic Enterprises LLC, all rights reserved.

  • 430: Finnish folklore: Worn Out
    Mar 11 2026

    ✏️Osmo is a pretty solid sketch artist✏️

    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.

  • 429: Slavic folklore: The Devilkin Made Me Do It
    Feb 25 2026
    👞Goria the shoemaker has a bad boss👞

    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
    Feb 11 2026
    🐺Inside each of us there are two wolves. They are named 'Shifty' and 'Freaky'.🐺

    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.

Hands down my favourite podcast. The stories are well crafted adaptions of the original stories, and across so many genres and cultures that you can get a taste of everything.

My only issue is that there are not enough episodes, because once you get through the backlog, there is nothing else that scratches the itch like Myths and Legends.

You can very easily get hooked on it, and like me, will then be patiently waiting as new episodes come out
