S2: Episode 5 - Sea-Punk Storytelling with Darcie Little Badger

Untold Legends: The Podcast

Welcome back to the UNTOLD LEGENDS podcast hosted by Natalie C. Parker & Zoraida Córdova. We've had a little bit of a rebrand, so if you remember VAMPIRES NEVER GET OLD, we are still the same editors and writers, we've just expanded.

Join our dynamic duo as they're joined this time by the wonderful Darcie Little Badger. Together they discuss some fun (and deadly) marine facts along with what inspired her story in the anthology from the perspective of a horror and fantasy lover.

Darcie Little Badger is a Lipan Apache writer with a Ph.D. in oceanography. Her critically acclaimed debut novel, Elatsoe, was featured in Time Magazine as one of the best 100 fantasy books of all time. Elatsoe also won the Locus award for Best First Novel and is a Nebula, Ignyte, and Lodestar finalist. Her second fantasy novel, A Snake Falls to Earth, received a Nebula Award, an Ignyte Award, and a Newbery Honor and is on the National Book Awards longlist. Darcie is married to a veterinarian named Taran.

We also found Darcie's magical octopus! The Octopus Squid has bioluminescent arms and can drop one as a distraction as it escapes predators. Check out the Monterey Bay Aquarium website for more on this critter.

Additional media mentioned: Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954), The Lighthouse (2019), Dagon (2001), The Shape of Water (2017), and Love, Death + Robots "Jibaro" (2022).
