About this listen

Before there was Zeus or Thor, there was Indra, the thunder-armed king who rode storms and drank deep from the sacred soma. He shattered a world-sized serpent to bring the rains and reveled in the chaos of gods and mortals alike. This episode plunges into Indra’s wildest victories, his flaws, and the brawling, irresistible energy that kept him alive across Asia’s myths. Meet the storm-maker who became a legend, a cautionary tale, and proof that no king—no matter how loud his thunder—can outrun his own shadow. Step into the tempest and hear the heart of the monsoon.
