Description
As legend has it, there were once 3 co-workers with a shared affinity for all things mythological. Their names were Max, Nelson, and CJ. Despite their differences in personality, or perhaps because of them, they shared divine banter some have described as “legendary”. With their interest in mythology and the power of their banter, Max, Nelson, and CJ embarked on a quest to impart knowledge and entertainment on the mortal realm. They vowed to enlighten their followers about all cultures: both the prominent and the obscure. Won’t you join them in their journey?

Join the Misfits while we discuss the west African trickster god Anansi and his inappropriate manner of harvesting Okra. Our second installment of the trickster god series features a god that you'll actually end up rooting for in the end. Anansi breaks from societal norms and gave hope to an oppressed people.As always, reach out to mythicalmisfitspod@gmail.com, or find us on Instagram under MythicalMisfitsPod.

The Misfits go round-robin presenting on snakes (sneks) of different cultures and continents. First, they talk about snake anatomy that very few people really needed to know, then take a trip to MesoAmerica, Europe, and Africa. Learn about Nyami-Nyami and their rock, Jormungandr and his history with Thor, and finally Quetzalcoatl and how we're all made of corn.Shout-out to friend of the pod Matt for the idea!

Nelson takes our first trip into Egyptian culture discussing the story of Osiris.

The misfits take their discussion to the Emerald Isle, Ireland. CJ presents us with a very literal pissing contest with some dire consequences.
