Mythillogical
MYTHILLOGICAL
close

Mythillogical is the podcast where two enthusiasts of mythology, history and folklore try and make sense of the wide variety of fantastic tales told by cultures around the world. We discuss why the same idea can show up in the mythology of cultures on opposite sides of the world, what real events can inspire superstition and folklore, how stories can completely change over time, and where possible try to figure out what could have inspired people to dream up dragons, demons, gods and monsters. May contain wild speculation, terrible puns, and if we’re lucky, actual facts.

The Finest City
THE FINEST CITY

Every city has a story, and this one is about San Diego. You might know it as paradise of ocean and sunshine, but as the most biodiverse region in the country and one half of the second largest bi-national metropolis in North America, it is also a battleground. We’re talking with the creatives, environmentalists, and social justice warriors who’ve been on the frontline fighting for progressive planning in this uniquely special city. We will also be exploring the history of land use activism in San Diego starting with the founding of Citizens Coordinate for Century 3 sixty years ago. If you love history, cities, and design, you won’t want to miss The Finest City.

We seek to discover the true story behind films apparently based on a true story. With a particular interest in gender and cultural representation, we love nothing more than to speak on how a particular film represents the world around us.

History Unzipped
HISTORY UNZIPPED

Historian and journalist Tony Perrottet unearths sexual stories from throughout the ages. The series is modeled on the "secret cabinets" in Victorian museums, where medieval chastity belts, Renaissance pornography and perverse novels by the Marquis de Sade were hidden. Each episode will answer a burning question: How did Napoleon's penis end up in suburban New Jersey? Are champagne glasses modeled on Marie-Antoinette's breasts? How did you behave at one of Caligula's orgies? And what were Casanova's best pick-up lines?
