Poison is said to be a women's weapon, but really, it is an equalizer. Get true crimey with us this week!
S2 Ep. 22 Fossil Myths Pt 2 (00:53:21)
Maddie & Tucker are back with rusty voices from their wedding reception hiatus with an exploration of fossil mythology from India and the Himalayas. They dive deep into the significance of ammonites (and their influence in Pokemon development). Nagas come into play as well, with their mythically jeweled and crested skulls. Finally, they conclude with the battlefields of the Mahabharata--the ancient Indian epic where two groups of cousins - the Pandavas and Kauravas -battle for the throne of Hastinapura in the Kurukshetra War. Fossils discovered around the Siwalik Hills may have influenced the mythology of this great epic.

In addition, we look into the origin of the legend of the griffin, which may have spawned from easily found and constantly shifting fossil remains in the Gobi Desert.

S2. Ep. 5 Persephone & Demeter (00:57:35)
Join Maddie and Tucker in a feminist exploration of Persephone and Demeter, Greek goddesses of Earth, life, fertility, agriculture, death & rebirth.

There is evidence of a matrilineal, peaceful, and agricultural society in Crete before the Zeus Olympus-model of Greek myths came into play. Maddie got a lot of feminist joy from this episode, you can too!
