  • The Two-Column Problem
    Who is the King of the Animals? No, but seriously, what's his deal? This week, Amy and Casey talk about a baffling and surprisingly fragile king with a basement full of screaming heads who stars in a fable that could be described as "all the other popular ones pulsed in a blender." Join us as we wander the grounds of the castle.

  • Neither Wife Nor Woman Be
    For episode 1, Amy and Casey look at Sif, wife of Thor, and sister-in-law to Untitled Norse God Loki (this is an untitled goose joke and if it doesnt' translate please cut), There's a lot about Sif that's been lost to time, but her one remaining anecdote can tell us a lot. We talk about how Loki, trickster half-god holding a twisted mirror to society, cuts off Sif's hair and starts a family feud that ends in Thor getting his iconic hammer.
