Welcome to Greek Mythology 101! We’re picking up with the A’s and working our way across many a pantheon. What better way to start than with the much-maligned, much hated, and much made fun of - Ares, the Greek God of War and holder of the title, Angriest Olympian. Find out about the many illegitimate children of Love and War he has with Aphrodite and all the times he gets captured. It’s at least two, which isn’t many but weird that it happened twice.

Ep 99 - Dionysus, God of Wine and Big Dick Energy

It’s our 99th episode! A special deep dive look at our patron god, Dionysus. Dionysus and his cohort of Satyrs and MAE NADS are getting into shenanigans involving a teetotaler king, King Goldfinger, and the best bard this side of a Dionysia Festival. It’s no Dionysian Mysteries as to why this god may be the last to join the pantheon but is number 1 in our hearts.

Ep 72 - Orishas: Big Hero 7

We are back from a long hiatus with our first recently recorded episode in a long time! Today, we are talking about the Orishas of the Yoruba religion and tradition, as well as their ties to Santeria and other mythologies and religions in the Americas! We’ll dish the hot goss on the coolest spirits/deities/forces of nature in the Yoruba pantheon. And if you stick around to the end, we share a surprisingly relatable creation myth for anyone who’s ever had a bad boss or employee.
