This week on MYTH, we’re headed to the wilds of the Ottoman Empire in modern Turkey for a royal rumble.  You’ll find that you should listen to your elders, that some ancient places are basically video game levels, and that lions make good hiding places but not great hiding places.  Then, in Gods and Monsters, an apple a day will get you kidnapped and beaten.

This week on MYTH, it’s an African story of magic, mystery, and mayhem.  You’ll see that you should be careful where you cry, that you should be careful who you loan your ox to, and that you should be careful where you get your magic charcoal.  Then, in Gods and Monsters, what’s it like to be made of wax?
