For the 125th episode, Rowan and Tracey go all the way back to the beginning and ask: what is mythology? They discuss the history and science behind storytelling, the chemical effects of religion on the brain, and whether or not trees have their own versions of folklore.

This week, Rowan presents the mythologies of goblins from around the world. We also learn about the ways goblins have been used as harmful antisemitic tropes and discuss other symbols from religion and folklore that have been used to influence public perception.

Due to a double whammy of scheduling issues and our next episode (once again) growing bigger than we intended, we are extending our break. We're taking more time off in order to release an episode that we are proud of. 🖤 The next episode will be coming soon, but not his week.

The Red String of Fate is famous online, but where does this myth come from? Join us for Ep 121, where we learn more about Chinese mythology, Yue Lao (the god of love and marriage), and Tu’er Shen (the patron of homosexual love between men as far back as the 17th century).

This week, the discussion is getting pointed (that's a triangle joke). @therowanhall and @_tracecode_ are discussing ghost ships, ocean farts, and they're also reading the transcript of a missing military training flight with sound effects and ✨drama✨

This week, @TheRowanHall is taking us through the history of werewolves. We’ll discuss the relationship between this myth and the witch trials. We’ll also explore some lycanthropic modern medicine and teach you how to defend yourself should you ever encounter a werewolf.
