Pull up a chair at the geek table where two lore-hoarding nerds (plus their unsuspecting NPC… Mum) unravel the eldritch spaghetti code of myth, pop culture, and seasonal chaos. From Percy Jackson’s “why-is-this-dropping-in-December?” questline to Orpheus cameoing like the original sadboi bard, this episode patches ancient mythos into the reboot multiverse with equal parts laughter, sibling banter, and Mom-agro.

Expect detours through Marvel’s timeline glitches, DC’s brooding mythopoetics, and cult TV Easter eggs that would make even Loki raise an eyebrow. Themes of music, betrayal, and overpowered protagonists get crit-hit analysis, while hot takes fly like Mjölnir across the table. Every adaptation becomes a new side quest in the infinite campaign of storytelling—and yes, the XP grind is worth it.

Stick around for the memes, the nerdfights, and the heartfelt reminder that myth never truly despawns—it just respawns in a shinier skin.

 

Hosted by: Ethan Osborne.

Featuring: Ashlea Ayling and Kerry Osborne.
