This week on MYTH, we’re going to break in this new year with a creation myth from a new pantheon - the Yoruba people of western Africa. You’ll learn how much gold it takes to reach the sky, how much sand it takes to fill the ocean, and how much clay it takes to build a person. Then, in Gods and Monsters, we’ll fight over colors with a new trickster god.
This week on MYTH, we’re celebrating the New Year with a mix of light and darkness that feels appropriate to this time of year. You’ll see that it’s tough to be a door-to-door match salesperson, that there is magic in flames, and that you should be careful of the cold. Then, in Gods and Monsters, out with the old and in with the new - it’s the Little New Year.
