It's a Tuckered Out episode this week! Unfurl your whips, let down your snake mane, and gird your loins as Tucker and Maddie descend into the depth of Tartarus to explore the lore of the Furies. These girlbosses doled out the pain and brought down the hammer on all those who so foolishly went against the wisdom of their parents acting as the embodiment of “I’m not disappointed, I’m mad” for generations of Greeks.  If you have any myths, stories, ghost stories, hauntings, questions, suggestions, feedback, corrections, or if you would like to become a sponsor for future episodes please email us at : [email protected]

Sometimes those in the affluent sectors are a little naughty. Join Maddie & Tucker as they talk about the poisoning interests and habits of Cleopatra VII, the Marquise of Brinvilliers during the time of the Sun King, and an entrepreneur of cosmetics that made a living off of selling poisons to women in difficult circumstances, Guilina Tofana. Poison is said to be a women's weapon, but really, it is an equalizer. Get true crimey with us this week!

Maddie & Tucker are back with rusty voices from their wedding reception hiatus with an exploration of fossil mythology from India and the Himalayas. They dive deep into the significance of ammonites (and their influence in Pokemon development). Nagas come into play as well, with their mythically jeweled and crested skulls. Finally, they conclude with the battlefields of the Mahabharata--the ancient Indian epic where two groups of cousins - the Pandavas and Kauravas -battle for the throne of Hastinapura in the Kurukshetra War. Fossils discovered around the Siwalik Hills may have influenced the mythology of this great epic.  If you have any myths, stories, ghost stories, hauntings, questions, suggestions, feedback, corrections, or if you would like to become a sponsor for future episodes please email us at : [email protected]

Join Maddie and a very sleepy Tucker as they explore the ancient beliefs about the fossils that people found in antiquity. Local folklore about fossils has recently led to fascinating archeological finds for scientists. In addition, we look into the origin of the legend of the griffin, which may have spawned from easily found and constantly shifting fossil remains in the Gobi Desert.  If you have any myths, stories, ghost stories, hauntings, questions, suggestions, feedback, corrections, or if you would like to become a sponsor for future episodes please email us at : [email protected]
