  • Episode 388: Filthy John's Big Thinkers Vol. 2

    This week on WTFolklore, we read The Riddle. That's something of a misnomer, as no riddles appear whatsoever. But there are plenty of personal anecdotes to be had.

    Suggested talking points: A Satisfying Scrunch, An Anecdote-Proof Life, Giant Dog Emporium, BYOBubble, Code Scheherazade, The Great Squander Games, The Sphynx Detox

  • Episode 387: Ms. Fieldmouse's Wiki Battleground

  • Episode 386: That Bird is My Dad
