#108 Jack and the Northwind and Muncimeg


Listen Later

In this episode, Katrina and Geoff dive back into the tales of Jack in the Appalachian Mountains of the United States. First Katrina does a quick review of how Jack tales crossed over the ocean and wound up in the Americas before Geoff tells us the tale of Jack and the North Wind. After a quick conversation about similar tales types and the differences to be found back in Europe, Katrina introduces us to a new kind of Jack tale as we go on an adventure with Muncimeg.
