This is a great podcast to listen to on a commute and when you just want to listen to cool people talk about mythology in a very accessible and approachable way! 10/10
I've been listening for YEARS and there's always something new to come back for: mythology lessons, spooky hometown urban lessons, great guests, pretty killer cocktails, and more!
I’ve been dealing with the flu for the last week ish and have spent this time listening to the backlog of spirits pod. I knew I was starting to feel better when I started throwing it back to the intro music again
good
Kind of like a more flippant, gen Z version of Lore but just as fun. Actually it’s super entertaining and allows me to while away so many boring hours at work. Also one of my go to Podcasts when I’m cooking. And all the above is from a 53 year old white dude. Totally worth a listen.
