Episode 122: The Fifth Sun

This season we’re doing ‘Miffs-cellaneous’, where we do a variety of different myths from around the globe. We had a great time exploring the Egyptian Gods but now it’s time for a new civilisation – The Aztecs. We’ll be starting with their creation myth. It’s a fabulously intriguing tale about how we live in the 5th world to have been created...but what happened to the previous 4? Also, Matt and Dan discuss some of the few good things that have happened during 2020. Hey you! Yes you. Why don't you follow us on social media at @MiffsPodcast.

Episode 121: The Aztec Suns

The eagle-eyed (Brian-eyed?) amongst you will have noticed that recently our episodes have been released fortnightly. Unfortunately this will be the case for the next few episodes due to Matt and Dan’s (Matt’s) busy work schedule. Fear not because each episode will be just as fun, professional and well researched as usual*. This weeks’ episode is uncovering some lesser known, but equally fascinating Egyptian deities - The Theban Gods. Also Matt and Dan discuss Matt’s impending Covid-19 test.*These are relative terms and should not be compared to other podcasts.Hey you! Yes you.

Episode 120: The Theban Gods

Last episode we featured a story that was Ancient Egypt’s ‘Cinderella’. This week we feature its version of the Exorcist.

Episode 119: Princess of Bekheten

This week’s MIFFS features a story you might recognise, only instead of a Disney cartoon, it’s courtesy of the Ancient Egyptians. It follows a Pharaoh on his quest to discover the owner of a lost (but rather nice) red shoe. He suspects that the footwear belongs to a lovely young lady and that once they meet she’ll no doubt want to marry him as a reward for finding her shoe. Sounds easy, but turns out Ancient Egypt is a very large place filled with interesting characters. Also, Matt and Dan discuss 118 and starting their own loan company. Hey you! Yes you.

Episode 118: The Ruby Red Slipper

Welcome to the third instalment of Ancient Egyptian mythology. This episode features a God you’ve almost certainly seen sculptures and drawings of; Anubis the Jackal-Headed God. Who is he? Where did he come from? And why does he have a Jackal head? Some, but not all, of these questions will be answered as we delve further into the incestuous loves of the Egyptian Gods. Also, Matt and Dan discuss the modern and hopefully temporary art of performing stand-up comedy over Zencaster. Hey you! Yes you. Why don't you follow us on social media at @MiffsPodcast.
