“Sing, O muse, of the rage of Achilles, son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans.”
We're here. The culmination of a dozen episodes and twice as many stories has led to this. Achilles. Helen. Agamemnon. Menelaus. Hector. Odysseus. There's a reason these names are still with us after thousands of years. This is the story of the Trojan War.
The creature is pretty much the opposite of an epic, brutal war. It's the not-epic, not-intimidating little Tofu boy!

Dear Jason,
I love what your doing! I listen to you every spare minute. Even when I’m doing homework. I hope you don’t mind but I’ve nicknamed you in my head Dr. myths. I have one request that if you could please do so more episodes in Loki. I love the way you make it seem like I’m watching a movie! Loki and Thor getting Thor’s hammer back. The way you make it seem like he’s actually there in my room smashing giants open! I tell everyone who will listen that your podcasts is the best podcast.
Your Loki starved fan
Is this the recommended order we should listen to this story? I noticed 132a and 132b is listed after 153. Thanks. :)
For anyone reading now with the same question (sorry I was late getting back to you on this one) yes, the above order is the order in which you should listen to the episodes.
why won’t 177A play or download?
Sorry! I updated so it should work now.
Listen every night before bed, love this series ❤
Hey great episodes, I have binged the whole podcast. Just two things, it would be great to have some more Fictional episodes. And I have a few Creature of the Week requests one is for the Bear Lake Monster from Utah and Idaho as well as the Menahune from Hawaii.
It would be very helpful if you made the audio transcript available to non-native English speakers and deaf people.
