I have really enjoyed this podcast as I have been traveling recently. Not a fan of scary stories, but I enjoy hearing myths and legends. This is a great blend of historical context, myth, and silliness to be informative, thought provoking, and fun. It's an easy to listen to podcast, just what you'd expect from Multitude. Good job, y'all!

Binge Worthy

I have been a long time listener and their content is so good! They are funny, they do their research, and are respectable towards other cultures. They preface with trigger/content warnings when applicable. I recommend this podcast to anyone in my life that has even the slightest interest in mythology/urban legends/cryptids.

They are amazing!
