Spirits: Mythology, Legends, & Folklore
Grab a glass and settle in for Spirits: Mythology, Legends, & Folklore, a weekly podcast from Multitude that blends humor with deep dives into the world's oldest stories. This isn't a dry lecture; it's a conversational and often hilarious exploration where each episode pairs a legendary tale with a thematic drink. You'll hear about familiar gods and heroes from Greek or Norse myths, sure, but the show truly shines when it uncovers lesser-known folklore from cultures across the globe, stories of tricksters, ghosts, and creatures you've never encountered. The hosts approach these ancient narratives with genuine curiosity and a comedic touch, making themes of love, betrayal, creation, and chaos feel both timeless and freshly relevant. Listening to this podcast feels like joining a fun, insightful chat between friends who are just as likely to laugh at a god's misadventure as they are to ponder its cultural significance. New stories are served over ice every Wednesday, offering a perfect midweek escape into the weird and wonderful foundations of human imagination. It’s the kind of show where you might learn about a Filipino vampire one week and a Scottish selkie the next, all while getting a great drink recommendation. The result is a uniquely engaging mix of comedy, history, and culture that demystifies mythology without ever losing its sense of awe.
