    Episode 131B - Theseus and the Minotaur

    This week on MYTH, Theseus will finally face his most famous foe - the Minotaur. You’ll see why you should never trust your uncle, why you should be careful who you give your heart to, and why you should spend more time being a king and less being an adventurer. Then, in Gods and Monsters, Icarus and Daedalus will attempt a daring escape from the tallest tower of Crete.

Then, in Gods and Monsters, we’re traveling back in time for the origin story of Theseus’ greatest foe and the inventor of its prison.

A Cheap Myths & Legends Knockoff

This podcast entirely rips off Jason Weiser’s Myths & Legends format. The entire format, just without the wit and humor of M&L. Even uses all the same stories. There is nothing original here. Like a junior high school kid, he thinks if he adds f-bombs all over the place it makes it “hardcore”. The sound quality is awful. Just go listen to Myths & Legends, it’s so much better

Awesomely Funny

This guy is awesome. Great storytelling, properly researched, and NSFW. He takes the lame, boring, or mundane stories that we all have heard, then adds a little extra.
