It's the first folktales episode of season 3, and our new Folktale cohost, Gabby comes in HARD with an origin story of the Nez Perce tribe. In this story, we meet a coyote who tests the suction power of a monster's mighty maw under the direct supervision of his arms dealer fox friend, Then Madi wraps it up with a story from the Māori culture that features an oozing (or shooting depending on the day) love triangle with a problematic (likely Libra) volcano in the center of it all. Shout out to Walla Walla, Washington and all who live there. Neither of these folktales are set there, and we've never been there... we're just sure it's great.

In Coco’s first episode, we spill the tea on history’s hottest MILF, Nefertiti. We’ll talk about the beauty rituals of an iconic queen, what it’s like to move from a lush and thriving metropolis to a harsh and barren desert and speculate on the secret identity of the mysterious Pharaoh Smenkhare.

Then, we explore the cringe that is young love, in a Fresh Cup submitted by a 13-year-old stuck in a love triangle.

In this season opener, we give you the hottest gossip on Diogenes the Cynic, and his everloving audacity. We take a look at his balls-out-approach to "living his brand" (pun ABSOLUTELY intended), his bitter date-induced rivalry with another famous philosopher, and his brutal comeback to Alexander the Great-- or should we say Alexander the LAAAMME after Diogenes philosophizes him in the face.

Season 3 is coming soon! Stay tuned, Honeybees!

An ending no one could have predicted. In this episode we pick up with Catherine preparing for the fight of her life to defend, not only the sanctity of her marriage, but to protect her adoptive country from the "Scandal of Christendom". We see this Tudor tragedy unfold through her eyes in this dramatic and harrowing conclusion to the incredible life of Catherine of Aragon, Queen of England.

In part one of Emily's series on Elizabeth Woodville, we will hear about Elizabeth's parents, upbringing, first marriage, and second marriage to the king of England. Welcome to the embryonic stage of the Tudor dynasty.

Folktales 26 includes several American folktales... and besides that, we'll leave this one a mystery. The only other thing we will say... we did NOT kill Ol' Dry Fry.
