In our last episode of the season, we look to the Bible. Three cities that appear in it, three cities shrouded in both myth and history. We look at a possible real location for Sodom and Gomorrah, and just graze the history of the epic city of Babylon.(While doing our best with pronouncing ancient Babylonian names).

Most of our focus as been in Europe, but South America has lost cities as well. Today, we look at El Dorado and Machu Picchu. How are they similar? How are they different? We look into these questions and more, with a special guest.

Viking. The very name creates an image of brutish men with beards and axes. And while they were these, there was another side to them: Explorers. We look at two lost cities believed to be built by, or at least connected to, vikings.

Crete, a Greek island with thousands of years of history. We go into the island's past, into its most famous civilization, the Minoans. How did they help inspire several Greek myths? What do we know about their culture? And what's with all the bulls? Just a few things that the Trio goes into today.

Atlantis, it's a mythical city that some insist is real, and others say is completely a story. We trace the origins of the story, how it's evolved over time, and what we think it really is/could be. And if you've never heard of it, we talk about the even weirder lost continent of Lemuria.

It’s our second Halloween special! This time, we read ghost stories from places important to us, as well as read listener submissions! We have mystery, tragedy, and of course, history. We hope you enjoy them.

Maybe you know it from the 'Iliad', maybe you know it from hunky actors in a movie, maybe it's the image of a horse. One way or another, you've likely heard of Troy and the Trojan Horse. We peel back the Hollywood glamour to take a look at the many layers of the city of Troy, straddling both myth and history.

In the final part of our Pompeii series, the Trio look into how Pompeii was discovered after being lost for centuries. We also look at the excavation methods that are being used, and we hear Cassandra's mind slowly go insane from all the finds that came out of Pompeii over the last year.

In Part 2, we look at the day that ended Pompeii, the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. As a caution, we do discuss how people died, what their bodies tell us, and what could happen to modern Naples when Vesuvius erupts again.

We are back with Season 2! In our opener, we look at Pompeii when the ancient city was alive and thriving! Did it take too many takes for the episode to work? Yes. Are we excited to bring it to you? Also yes! Welcome back to History and Myths with the Trio (now with pronunciation guides!)
