About this listen

This is the Myths Your Teach Hated, a bi-weekly podcast where I tell the stories of cultures around the world in all of their original, bloody, uncensored glory. Modern tellings of these stories have become dry and dusty, but I’ll be trying to breathe new life into them.Myths Your Teacher Hated 2017 World

    This week on MYTH, it’s off to merry olde England for one of the most famous stories of Arthurian legend. You’ll see that kings are just better than everyone else, that even a holy duty is nothing compared to a jousting tournament, and that wizards are tricksy fellows. Then, in Gods and Monsters, a troublesome spirit is going to get into a battle of wits with a farmer.
