The concept of "Digital Folklore" is a fascinating exploration of how traditional folklore, which encompasses myths, legends, and customs passed down through generations, has adapted and evolved in the digital age. This podcast delves into the ways in which modern technology and online communities have become the new fertile ground for the creation and dissemination of folklore. http://www.travelful.net/location/5254563/usa/branded-paper-placemats In this digital era, folklore has shifted from being predominantly oral and written to now encompassing memes, viral videos, internet urban legends, and even online rituals. These digital narratives often draw from ancient folklore, urban legends, and mythology, reflecting the human need for storytelling and the persistence of these timeless themes. Moreover, they shed light on our society's collective consciousness and anxieties. https://www.a-zbusinessfinder.com/business-directory/Branded-Paper-Placemats-Floral-Park-New-York-USA/33912761/

Excellent episode guys! As a Tumblr user I can attest to what you said about the beloved Hellsite. The frame grows ever more intriguing especially now that you're in the second season. I enjoyed the frame in the first season because it kinda felt like a GM establishing the campaign setting with broad strokes. As a GM I mean this in the best possible way. I'm waiting eagerly to see how your character selves and the story interact with with this eerie mysterious setting you've made.

Another fact about the devils chair is that you're supposed to leave a beer as an offering. It's said that at midnight, the devil comes and drinks the beers, and the next day, the beer can/bottle will be sitting there empty. I will say that the rumors are true that they are normally empty the next day. Cassidaga is right on way back from the beach for a lot of people in Central Florida, and what's better to end a day at the beach with then a free beer? Sometimes, I wonder if the folk tale was created by someone in the area who wanted some beer but was broke. Whoever created this story, I have to thank them for all the free beer I've drank on Cassidaga!

This episode was very emotional for me. I was unaware of the Momo story, but I did know a beautiful trans woman who called herself Momo. Having heard this story now, I can only imagine how much dysphoria and alienation she must have been feeling. A few years ago, she took her own life. It makes me wish I had reached out more to her, but I had a bit of a crush on her, so I was shy. She was so beautiful. Her loss still makes me sad. Anyway, great show. I'm really enjoying the philosophical elements.
