About this listen
Weird gods and strange deities from mythology's most bizarre divine lineup. Forget Zeus, Odin, or Vishnu---this episode is all about the gods so niche and ridiculous that they make you question how they ever got worshippers. From deities of manure to gods of partying, it’s a divine lineup like no other.
• Gods Who Shouldn’t Have a Job: Meet Sterquilinus, the Roman god of manure, and Cloacina, goddess of sewers—because even the ancient world had plumbing concerns.
• Gods of Bad Life Choices: Dionysus, the ultimate party god, and Xipe Totec, the Aztec deity who thought wearing human skin was a fashion statement.
• Gods Who Might Still Be Out There: From Baron Samedi, the voodoo spirit of death, to Pazuzu, the Mesopotamian demon that found its way into Hollywood horror.
Are these gods long forgotten, or do they still hold sway in strange corners of the world? Tune in to find out!
