I thoroughly enjoyed listening to "Mulan: A Likely Hero" episode. The storytelling was engaging, and the episode was well researched. The host's narrative style brought Mulan's tale to life, making it a captivating!! Always loved Mulan but the storytelling shed a whole new light and love on her ❤️❤️

I like it a lot

I get so paranoid, but this show doesn’t make me paranoid

I listen to this pretty much ever day lol, Wednesdays being my ‘me-time’ for my date with the new episode lol. Your growth is awe inspiring and I never tire of your telling, especially my favorites: 1001 Nights as well as the Greek collection, Journey to the West & The tale of Jaya/Vijaya. You and your wife are amazing. Your work has been a companion to me for almost a decade now and I’m so grateful you do what you do - THANK YOU 💛

Myths and Legends is my favorite podcast! It’s the one that ALL OTHER PODCASTS are measured against, so other podcasts should take note! Also, if you guys ever want to bring back Fictional (pretty please, I know it’s gotta be a lot of work!), I’d totally be on board! Thank you for sharing such great content and being consistently awesome!

Just discovered this channel and really enjoyed it as I started from the earliest, then an ad or two appeared. Then another. And another. And even though I found the host often talks too fast and the bits of sarcastic asides and references to modern tech a bit irritating, the gist was interesting and entertaining. But soon the additional ads peppered throughout got to be way too obnoxious, often louder than the podcast itself, sometimes esp grating when a loud woman’s voice as opposed to the male host. Unsubbed and stopped listening. Never thought I’d find something even more money-grubbing than youtube…

love this podcast! could you do a podcast episode about the silt-mouthed woman: Kuchisake-Onna from Japanese folklore

Thank you…these are fun bedtime stories for me. I find myself repeat playing the Monkey King episodes over and over just to remember all the events. I think I’d listen to all remaining XX chapters if you do them :)

The pride commercials are annoying though this is the best podcast I’ve ever listened to! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😊😻😻😻

Hi from 300CE this is a great podcast and it should be a 6 ⭐️ review but I can do 5 ⭐️ ❤️🏳️‍🌈❤️🐸❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If u give this show anything below a 5 star review u are wrong don’t be evil give it a 5 star -PS let’s get to only five stars by the end of 2024

Over the past 7 years I’ve had 4 jobs, all manual labor. Trash truck hopper, Sheetrock hanger, General Handyman, and now I have a landscaping business. Throughout that time I’ve listened to this podcast while at work, also Fictional and Scoundrels, but it his one the most at least 8 times start to finish. I don’t think I would have been able to deal with the monotony without the lightly informative yet humorous style of Jason’s storytelling. I am truly appreciative for this podcast. Being able to absorb these significant to jovial tales from times of yore not only connect us to our past but show us how time may change but people really don’t. Thank you for all that you do.

The pride commercials make me want to throw up. The degrading of the man in a lot of his stories is annoying. Otherwise pretty good

UPDATE: HEY JASON, NOT SURE WHY BUT YOU NO LONGER SHOW UP WHEN I SAVE YOU ON APPLE PODCASTS. I HAVE TO TYPE IN “MYTHS AND..” TO FIND YOUR SHOW. KEEP IN MIND YOU ARE THE ONLY PODCAST I LISTEN TO AND WAIT FOR EACH WEEKS RELEASE. YOU MIGHT WANNA REACH OUT TO APPLE. This series is my all time favorite podcast to listen to. I never miss an episode. If you’re looking for something educational and entertaining at the same time this is it. Jason does a great job tying the story into where is rests historically as well as the social and political period in which each story comes- but trust me it’s not in a boring way. He has this unique ability to use modern references in a way that is his just cheesy enough to be funny, and not make you roll your eyes. I know more about Greek, Roman, Icelandic, Asian and American myths than anyone I know because of this podcast. If you like a good storytelling give it a try.

This is by far the best mythology podcast that I have ever listened to. Thank you so much Jason and Carisa for keeping this podcast safe and fun!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for a few years and it’s my favorite . I love the humor which is often thrown in and catches me by surprise each time. I’m a lifelong fan!!!!

This podcast is the BEST. It balances humor, modern writing, and the classics you tell. The dialogue is great, unlike another review says. It isn’t faked or forced, and matches the theme or feeling the story gives off at all times. Simply fantastic job. I hope you make it forever!

Hey Jason! I honestly think that this is a great podcast. I like how you try to make sense of every story, and that you put a creature of the week in every episode. I also like how all the ads are at the end of the episode, and that the (not very common) ads that are in the middle of the show are read by you, and are very quick and heartfelt. I love learning about new mythological creatures, and then turning around and creeping out my friends and family with (mostly weird) weird and gruesome facts about said creatures. I also like how, when it comes to sexist stories from the Middle Ages where people sold their daughters to husbands, you are wonderfully neutral, and you try to express that people were, frankly, horrible to women in general, which is stupid. God created men and women to be equals. I like learning about new myths, and it is great. Keep up the good work!! I know this is about 300 episodes too late, but in episode 67A, you asked why ill-bred was a really bad insult. Well, in medieval times, if someone called you ill-bred, they mean that you are 1: Born of dirty peasants and/or vagabonds. 2: Your parents are not married, and/or one is noble and the other is a peasant. 3: You don’t have any sort of honor(remember people were very big on honor in this time period). 4: You’re just a horrible person. Or 5: A combination of all three.

This is my go to every night. I let Jason and Carissa tell me a story before bed ☺️. I’m a subscriber and never think twice about supporting their work. Cannot recommend ENOUGH!

When I found myths and legends, I had never heard anything like it! The way Jason and Carissa use this platform to retell famous (and not so known) stories from various cultures is not only INCREDIBLY entertaining, but also insightful and well-researched. I’ve been a listener for years and can’t stop recommending it enough to friends who enjoy a good storytelling!

Very enjoyable to listen to, thanks for the lessons!

Best podcast I always and only listen to myths and legends!!!Do more Tom Thumb!

The Norse legends reeled me into this podcast show and I haven’t been able to stop listening since. This is is the perfect podcast for me when driving to work and just relaxing at home alone. I love the factual but fun writing to this show!

Right Meow is better than Piece of Cake

“See, not everyone is evil, Xuanzang clapped, and Monkey had to agree.” Unless Xuanzang communicated this idea by slapping one hand against the other, this is absolutely terrible writing. This is now how dialogue tags work, but the writers of this podcast do this all the time. They appear not to understand which verbs are associated with speaking. Characters also do not laugh, grin, or sigh their lines. If the writers would just take a refresher course on dialogue, this would be a decent show.

This podcast is seriously so good. Jason is funny and the stories are great!

I love your podcast so much!!!!!! Please make more Native American episodes

Use it to sleep but not because it’s boring. I listen to it on my headphones when I travel when I color in class, etc. I’ve listened to it since the beginning I love it so much!!!😽

I have been listening to the podcast for over 4 years and it is really good and always improving. But, please bring back the old cover, and do more monkey king episodes please!

I agree with N’ate

Favorite episode so far! More strong women 🙌 Thank you!🙏

Ambutakauuuuummmmmmm

We need myths and legends con

I work long hours during the night & this is the perfect podcast to keep me company. I look forward to every Tuesday when episodes drop. Interesting stories with incredible writing, extremely witty & funny dialogue & an awesome variety of cultures & time periods represented. Some of my favorites include the Monkey King, Norse legends & Japanese folklore. Please never stop

👌

I Love Your Podcast And I Think Your Probably One If My Fav Podcasters But, Maybe You Should Stop Sponsoring Better Help? They Are Very Anti LGBTQ+ And They Have Had Many Law Suits For Selling Patients Information To Companies And Websites. Please Put This Into Consideration, I Didn’t Go Into Full Detail About Better Help But I Hope You Stop Using The Company For Counseling! Stay Safe❤️

Mythlets assemble!!!! 🤌 chefs kiss THANK YOU JASON!!!!

Jason does a spectacular job narrating all of the folklore and fairy tales! Easy to listen to and understand. I also appreciate his opinion on hidden meanings in said folklore and fairy tale stories! Great job guys!

I love all the French ones and Pretty Pretty Pirate! I also like Clever Girl (episode 156). Thanks for all the work that you all have put into it. Amazing jokes and storytelling! I tell these stories to my friends, and they love it! I also think that the followers of this podcast should be the Mythlets!

The mythlets must be a thing, it is needed. Jason make it a thing please.

Awesome podcast. Perfect for a calming or adventurous listen depending on the episode. Would like to see the numbering system to continue though, it is helpful for keeping place within the catalogue.

Love the podcast and the wide variety of myths and legends you cover - especially the Greek myths. I’d love to hear about the sorcerous Circe!

We would like some Native American myths. Or tell us about another god.

This podcast is great, I keep updated every week and am super exited for future events! Though I wish there was a link to the first monkey king episode, I don’t understand what’s happening in those episodes.

Enjoying the journey of this podcast I’m on ep 111 I hope you have an episode on spring heel jack thanks for storytelling

A great way to keep the classic myths and stories alive Along with those not so well known A little to "Woke" sometimes But good stories for families with children

Dude, this is the best! I love this podcast so much, I have listened to it over and over again. You have outdone it, the voices are incredible and you speak so articulately! Every episode is a masterpiece,🤌🏻. The only reason

I have acute insomnia and I love folklore. This podcast is intelligently comical, keeps the essence of the origins of each individual story and the hosts have voices that are easy to relax and listen too. Hey I’m probably not going to just fall asleep ever but I’ll definitely be relaxed and entertained. Highly suggest to anyone to check out Myths and Legends. At least if you love folklore and a great sense of humor 🙃

I am a very long listener I have been listening since episode 29.🙃This is the best podcast ever I have listened to at least every episode 5 times!👍If you haven’t checked it out your missing out I’m on team simply safe for the win.🥇I don’t know what the deal with the ads is but you can just skip ⏭️ them.I use this to sleep 😴 to it’s not working and that’s ok I love ❤️ it so much that I still use it to sleep.Bye myths and legends for the win and also I like the old logo better. :3
