This week's episode is not so much an episode but a special announcement!
In view of the recent discoveries of graves at the sites of former residential schools, I'm doing a more serious episode talking about the folklore and beliefs of several different First Nations people.
This week's episode is all about Zeus and his many conquests and wives. And yes, it's just as bad as you think.
It's time for the super special second episode for this week! It's got blood, death, missing body parts and more.Nope, it's not the story of a hardened Greek warrior, it's another instalment of Grimm's Fairy Tales, enjoy!
In this very special episode of Never Booty Call Zeus, I discuss LBGT+ representation in ancient mythology, just in time for Pride! And trust me, there's a lot
It's time to talk about another Greek jerk . . . sorry, I mean hero. Learn all about Theseus, his run in with a Minotaur and everything else you didn't realize you wanted to know about one of Ancient Greece's greatest heroes.
Blood, guts and eight-legged horses, it's time to explore Norse Mythology
Fairyland is calling and we must obey. Learn about fairies, pixies and selkies and why fish might or might not be a fairy repellant
Enough with the male heroes, let's talk about the badass female warriors known as the Amazons.
Join me as we explore the second half of Heracles' Twelve Labours and wonder at just how much of a pain the real Heracles was.
Who put the glad in gladiator? Definitely not Heracles. Let's dive into the story of Heracles, which is most definitely nothing like the Disney movie
All about mermaids! They're everywhere and they're interesting as heck. Let's dive in (heh) and explore the assorted mermaid myths from around the world.
We made it to double digits! Let's celebrate by getting super dark with some of the Brothers Grimm's best fairy tales.
Happy April Fool's day! Let's talk about trickster gods and all their assorted shenanigans
It's that time, let's get into the Trojan War and all the insanity around it
Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, here's another special episode. This one is all about the beginning of the Celtic people and gods, so sit back with a glass of green beer and enjoy.(Side note: I know the pronunciations are wonky but I did my best)
Welcome to a special International Women's Day episode of Never Booty Call Zeus. In this episode I'll cover a few of my favourite mythological women from around the world.
The story of Aladdin continues, and while there's no Abu or Iago or talking animals of any kind, it's still a pretty cool story.
This week's episode is a retelling of a few of the most famous tales from Scheherazade's 1,001 Nights . . . and yes, I did include Aladdin
This week I'll be covering the interesting and somewhat ignored topic of triple deities. With examples from Irish, Russian and Greek mythology, it may be the coolest thing you haven't heard of yet.
