À propos de cet audio

Madi and her Batch of Bards give you a hot, fresh cup of history gossip. Madi, Betsy, Coco, Chris, Gabby and Taylor take turns telling each other (and YOU!) all of the fun, juicy details of history, and skip anything that isn’t spill-worthy.

We research people, places, things, and events from all around the world, and even sling some of the world's finest Folktales your way every third episode.

At the end of each episode, catch a FreshCup with Betsy, where we take to the internet for just a quick little sip of contemporary tea before the blooper reel plays.

Just some good 'ol historical story telling; that's the tea at Spill the Mead.

  • Folktales Worldwide: tales from North America, Grimm's, & Ojibwa

    Folktales Worldwide: tales from North America, Grimm's, & Ojibwa
    Nov 12 2025

    TRIGGER WARNING ON ALL THIS! It's a scary one... well, except for the absolute DELIGHT of a story at the very end. Get there.

    Tale 1(ish): SKINWALKER TALES. Yes, that is right. Gabby found us a collection of modern day Skinwalker stories, which is reeeaaally just some modern-day folktales if you really think about it. She begins by giving a run down on just what a Skinwalker is, and then we go through a few CHILLING sightings of these creatures. We also learn a lot about Native American Culture along the way!

    Tale 2: Grimm's the Rober Bridegroom. In this story, a young maiden travels to visit her (wealthy) groom-to-be's house for the first time. She followed a trail of ashes into the dark forest only to stumble upon the most BRUTAL scene and get a glimpse into her own fate. With the help of a new friend (and her entire family eventually) they escape and bring this man to justice... literally.

    Tale 3: How Corn Came into the World. *PLEASE IGNORE THE OUTDATED LANGUAGE IN THIS ONE!!!! This is the sweetest story, which we need to be ok after this episode. It tells of the sweetest young man, and his journey to help feed his people for generations to come. Through a test of strength, he leaves us with a golden sweet story to end on.

  • The Evolution of the Vampire | & How They’ve Crossed Oceans of Time to Find You

    The Evolution of the Vampire | & How They’ve Crossed Oceans of Time to Find You
    Oct 31 2025

    The modern vampire is depicted as sophisticated, sexy, dangerously charming - a masterful seductive force of superhuman strength, thirsty for blood.

    .

    But did you know vampires didn’t start out this way? From ancient soul-sucking succubi to hopping spirits that drained your life force, to grotesque plague spreaders and dead men walking, the vampire legend has evolved from the truly disgusting to the downright sparkling.

    .

    Come with Madi and Coco as they trace the vampire myths and legends back through time. Learn a little bit about Bram Stoker and his affinity for the occult, and the random travel guide that inspired the classic novel Dracula. Compare and contrast the real life Vlad the Impaler with the fictional character Bram created. Discover how scientific developments shifted the myth of the vampire into the sexy creature we now love AND fear.

    Also rehash some 90’s childhood movie trauma with us because what even were those frogs in Thumbelina all about, you guys?!

    .

    Follow that up with a Happy Ending with Betsy… which is arguably darker than the episode content as she discusses a real life monster.
