Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hey, there's spooky friends and welcome to another episode of
the Scarish podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Whoo.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
I'm Robin Grace. This is Adam Dazo and we're a
podcast that covers interesting, scaryish true crime, you know, paranormal.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
We do all that fun stuff. Anything that could be
classified as scary ish we try and cover, which you
guys know. This is like the three hundred and eleventh
top episode.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Also, if you're new, welcome. We don't take ourselves seriously.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
No, and you can tell because you can hear our
dogs walking around. So we don't have a carpet for
our new office yet. Hopefully they'll chill out because it
is kind of late. We're recording this on April thirtieth,
twenty twenty five. You know what that means Tomorrow it's
gonna be May's May. Yeah, we are doing roughly two
episodes a month right now. We're doing like every other week,
(00:58):
which is kind of a decent cadence for us. We're
trying to get three minimum per month. But the first
week of the month is always a kind of a nightmare.
I wanted to cover that because my birthday is actually
May the eleventh, which is also known as Mother's day,
So Happy Mother's Day. Tell you mother's out there. We
will likely not have an episode directly after that because
(01:19):
we're gonna be in Scottsdale, Arizona for a work thing
for me.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, Adam is now a corporate drone, Yes, corporate drone
things to do.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
We're having this like fun little like field day thing
for three days out in Scottsdale, which should be interesting
to say the least. They have some events that actually
sound really fun, like go karts and top golf, So
what the heck, Yeah, it's gonna.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Be do you freaking I don't know. Don't say you're
actual company, but I can't believe you work for a
company who's like, we're gonna do field day, but we're
gonna do golf and go carts.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
You know what, an obstacle course too. So field day.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
For me is we're gonna play flag football and maybe
some botchy you.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Know, we're gonna have either of those. In my field day,
we just did a bunch of track and field events
and then we also had like the crab walk in
the gym, which I was really funny.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Oh you're talking about like high school now.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I'm talking about like elementary school Feast, oh, which was
dope as shit. But yeah, so the May eleventh through
the seventeenth, I think somewhere around there we're going to
be out of town, so there won't be an episode then,
but this will be the first one that comes out
in May. It's coming out. I'm just gonna release it tomorrow,
so May first. So excited about that. It is the
super busy time at work for me right now, but
I want to make sure to get an episode out
(02:31):
since it's the beginning of the month and we need
to do some shout outs. We do have a Patreon
over at patreon dot com slash Scarish Podcast where you
can sign up for monthly donations and there's a bunch
of different tiers. The Intro tier gets you no ads
and you get an early access, and then each subsequent
level after that grants you a little bit more bonuses,
including the stuff they came before. At the shout Out level,
(02:53):
the shout Out tier and above. We do thank all
the patrons who are donating that much or more every month,
So shout out to Carl, olav Shandon and Fay, and
a special shout out to a Dulce who I think
their account for whatever reason, didn't show up properly the
last time we did shoutouts, and they got it fixed immediately.
They messaged us on Patreon. They're like, oh my god,
(03:14):
I'm so sorry. I'm sorry I missed my shout out,
so double shout out. Thank you so much Dulce for
being so damn too. We very much appreciate it, And
thank you to all the patrons who are over there donating.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
If if you're not getting a shout out, yeah me
and and you know what, if you guys have stuck
with us for this long, we are so incredibly thankful
because we are the most inconsistent Patreon patroon host people.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I did try putting up like mini topics and like
the story behind the topic type of thing, and I
did them like three weeks in a row, and they
got like single digit views. So I was like, well,
I'm stopping this shit. Clearly this is not the content.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
You know. Sometimes, you know what, maybe we'll just while
we're on we're doing a road trip to Scottsdale. Guys.
Adam didn't want to like cough up money for a flight,
so we're going to be driving.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I just like to drive you to my company's paying
for the flight. I also like to have my own car.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
There anyway, Okay, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Want to cough up money, this bitch says, I past
some bills around.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
We're gonna so maybe I'll just do random videos while
we do our road trip, posting the patreons. You guys
can see how boring we are. Yeah, I don't know. Well,
we'll try to make it more fun.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah, either way, thank you so much for everyone who
supports us. You have a supporter in your corner, always
sending good spirit on energy your way, and if you're
wonder who that is, it's gonna be made so bad
right now, seriously, all that to say, yeah, we're back
episode three eleven, gonna be covering that band. I love
(04:43):
that band. It's an Adam episode. So I'm blanking on.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I'm thinking of Three Doors Down. I don't know what
three eleven eleven?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
You got three Doors Down in three eleven mixed up
three Doors Down. I know they have the stupid Superman
song at the day three eleven. I can't remember a
song from three eleven, So I'm just gonna move on
from that.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
You know, there's a huge three to eleven fan out
there and they're just like, I'm so ashamed of you
right now.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Those are forgetting about this and this that actually brings
me up to a good point. So my topic today
is like lower its mythology theology for some if you
still practice the ancient ways of the Norse, and I'm
gonna go over it. And I don't want anyone to
be offended if I leave something out or if I
have certain people in the wrong spots, And I want
(05:28):
you to understand that I have read a ton of
this back in the day. I refresh myself over the
last week, week and a half on a lot of it,
and certain people just got to get cut. You know,
I only have like four and a half five five
ish pages that I can really work into an episode.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
They're gonna end up on the cutting room floor and
that's just gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
So it's not that I don't know. So you don't
need to tweet at me or yell at me and say, oh,
you didn't know this, because a lot of people like
to be you know, know it alls and it's like
you forgot this part. Like I get it. I had
to leave some stuff out, So don't get up it's
not a personal attack on you. Like, everyone still loves you.
I talk to your parents, they all love you too. No,
(06:07):
but seriously, like some people get pissed off if I
leave certain things out of certain topics, and I want
to let you know, like this is one where you
don't need to get like too serious about it. I'm
just trying to get through the story of Ragnarok, because
we did talk about it a little bit.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
We did talk about it last episode. Last episode involved
some of that mythology, and Adam was like, you know what,
I'm gonna do it. So he's doing it. We're doing it.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I am fulfilling the prophecy that was set forward to
last last episode. I'm covering something that does overlap with
a little bit of the content from the previous episodes,
so I'm get upset about that. Twenty twenty five has
been quite a year so far, and it's one that
inspires me to root for asteroids that are hurtling towards
Earth to hit Itigley, let's go, please, gotta let it end.
So what could be more cathartic of an activity than
(06:53):
dealing with the way the world is right now By
talking about how it's supposed to end. It sounds fun.
So I really wanted to do this topic. And what
better end of the world prophecy to start with than
one written by the Norse because they were pretty fucking cool.
So let's just get to it. Cover in Ragnarock, let's
dive in feet first. I was thinking about making this
(07:15):
a monthly theme. I've done like man Eater May in
the past and stuff like that, where I covered like
a bunch of different animals that killed a bunch of people.
But I couldn't come up with a good name for
the theme, like to talk about all the like end
of the world foretellings. I thought like Pigley may would
be fun, but that doesn't sound right, so I didn't
have a nice ring to it.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I kind of like faded away from it.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
So may it end is pretty fucking good, I said
for my fortieth birthday, which is coming up in like
less than two weeks now, it could be something along
the lines of, like, maybe that's why I'm so about
the world ending nowadays, because you're turning forty. You could
call this like my midlife crisis. May, so I do
(07:59):
like may and end. That's pretty good. I mean, who knows.
Maybe I'd have an actual midlife crisis if I could
fucking afford it, But apparently I can't even cough up
the bucks for a flight to Scotsta, Arizona. You're such
a twad. She's smiling. Don't get mad. But yeah, that said,
I guess my midlife crisis is just coming in the
form of wanting the world to end at this point.
(08:19):
And when you do your topics, you know in May,
you don't have to follow the theme. Maybe I could
just like buy a corvette that can rev in the
background while you're.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Talking, so you know, we're not that far apart in age.
You know, life is your midiness coming.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Up on your midlife crisis too, what do you mean
coming up on? Shout out to my dad. By the way,
he totally did buy himself a corvette for his mid
life crisis, So for him, to be honest, like, if
I'm going to put in full context, it was really
more of a lifelong goal that was finally fulfilled. He
was trying to buy the car for a very long time,
so just because he was old by the time he
was able to accomplish it didn't necessarily make it a
mid life crisis. The ear ring was probably more than
(08:55):
midless choices.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
So the ear rings, he's got multiple ear he has.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Two piercings in the same ear. Yeah, those happened very
close to each other, so he was probably like forty
ish forty five somewhere around there. I can try and
do like the midlife crisis thing that like happens to
ladies sometimes, at least some of the ladies that I've known.
We suddenly start like deciding to act young and like
using young people slang and like cap some folks do
(09:22):
like occasional plastic surgery. I can't afford that, and I'm
not judging you if you do, so I could do that.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Let's get you some boatox.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
No, I don't want botox. I want tits. Oh my
rock tits. I just like to be talking to people like, hey,
my eyes are up here, So I do that. Anyways. Anyways,
let's forget about this gibbety toilet of a year. No
Ragnar rock top, no cap fam. I'll spill the Norse
tee ohio just like it means bad, Like Garrett told
(09:56):
me that in the most recent Twats of twats, And
it makes me so happy to know that, which is
one of my least favorite states, is like gen Z
slang for like lame or stupid? Is that?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
The word that Peyton Manning said during.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
That was Omaha o maha. That's a city of state. Yeah.
Saying all those gen Z terms made me kind of
like want to run a cheese grater over my tongue
to feel better, so I'll probably not go with that
bit anymore. So anyways, let's talk about Ragnarok, right. It
is by far the best Thor movie. The Thor movies
in order of goodness goes three, one, two four. If
(10:32):
you disagree with me, that is your right as an
individual to have your own opinion. But do know just
because you have an opinion doesn't mean it can't be wrong,
and yours is and you're fucking stupid.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
He has strong opinions. Guys.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
I'm gonna tried telling me that episode three Revenge of
the Sides great, and that a New Hope the original
Star Wars movie was garbage, And I told them, they're
a fucking idiot that has garbage taste. And I think
that is an opinion based thing. I think that is
a crime pun shold by death. I fuck you Paul,
I know you don't listen, but.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Garrettas obviously we went to go watch Revenge of the Sixth.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Oh the fuck is that?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I mean? So the twenty five year anniversary twenty twenty
Oh sorry, I'm sorry. Twenty five is mean girls, mean girls,
twenty five years old? Uh so Revenge of the Sith
twenty year anniversary, I guess is this past weekend. We
went to go see it, and so I'm living on
that high highest grossing.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Make me like sidetrack. Here's one thing I should say,
is like seeing Revenge of the Sith reminded me, like
there are a lot of good pieces that I forgot about.
Just the dialogue is so so bad, and the way
certain things are shot, Like you can tell when George
Lucas has two people talk, He's like, I don't know
what the fuck to do.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Babe, babe, what if you're not with me then you're
my enemy?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Yeah? I got it. Thanks the fact there's a part
in that movie where he says, from my point of view,
the Jedi or evil, which is like the thing you
put in brackets when you're writing dialogue, like this is
what my dialogue is supposed to convey. It's like someone
that doesn't know what subtext is and just uses like text.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
This is what our movie podcast is gonna be.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Like, No, movie appreciation podcast is what we're going for.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
No, it'll be so fun, though.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Let's just go ahead and move on, all right, I'm
my bit about the Thorn movies is over. Let's not
even talk about Star Wars. I'm too riled up now.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
He hates it so much.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I don't actually hate it that much. It is the
best of the prequels, I will fully admit that.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
But every single time I looked at you, well I'm
excited about this movie and quoting all the lines from
this movie, Adam's just like this is the worst experience
of all time. It was.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
No, it wasn't the worst experience, but like there's just
certain parts where the beginning where he's standing there watching
like pad Me brush her hair out after she told
him that she's pregnant, uh huh, and he's like staring
and she's like what it's like, you're just so beautiful?
Like that's okay, Like people say that and then like
they have those things like so you're in love because
I'm beautiful? Oh, so love is blind and like the
fucking dialogue is just like shut up, like I just
(13:00):
wanted to yell in the fucking theater. Like it's did
not get better with time anyway, Continue stop bringing up
Star Wars.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I can't help it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
We're gonna talk about Ragnarok, which this just makes me
want the world to end even more. I'm gonna go
put the disclaimer at the front that even though this
is an ancient myths slash theology slash lore, it could
all be bullshit that just got made up a long
time ago. Sorry, Odin, don't get mad at me. I'm
just heading in my bets. Don't get upset. The word
Ragnarok literally means twilight of the gods. There's a lot
(13:28):
of different ways people have translated this word in the past.
They usually use it as a compound word, where gods
is I think ragnar I'm not quite sure, but it's
either like doom of the gods destruction of the gods,
depending on the translation. One of the most commonly accepted
translations is actually final destiny of the gods, which I
really like. So we're gonna say Ragnarok means final destination
(13:50):
of the gods. Someone called Newline I have your next
fucking movie, Final Destination.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Ragnarok blood Lines comes out on the sixteen.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
It would actually be pretty cool, and blood Lines does
look pretty good. I'm not gonna lie. I like movies
that understand they're trying to be cheesy, and not movies
that suck and are cheesy and are trying to be
good at the same time.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Hashtag not mad. I wish we could run an act
ro their.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Fucking Final Destination. Bloodlines sponsored our contract my mind. So
as I go through Ragnarok, you're going to recognize certain
things from pop culture, honestly and from Marvel. But it'll
be fun to go through because it's just very interesting.
The first thing that signals Ragnarok, which is not just
the final destination for the gods but for like all creation, uh,
(14:36):
is something that is called the Great Winter. So the
Great Winter is essentially three straight years of winter with
no spring, summer, or fall. Feels very Game of Thrones.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
I was gonna say yes, yeah, and I'm.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Actually kind of lying because that's not really the beginning.
That's the beginning that we would see. So we're gonna
take one step back and go into the realm of
the gods, which is you know where. We're gonna spend
a lot of time here, and I'm gonna let you
know what brings it about that winner. So there's a
god named Balder, which sounds like Balder's Gate, which is
an amazing game series. Balder is the god of light.
(15:08):
He is a son of Odin, and he isn't just
a son. He is like the most loved kid. He's
the favorite. His mom is frig Or Frigga. You can
always see, like with the Norse legend, there's like a
bunch of variations of spelling. So I'll use the names
that you're probably familiar with from stuff like fucking thorpe
So Frigga or his mom who's played by what's the
(15:29):
name of that actress. I don't know why I'm asking you.
You never remember practice.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
All I know is Natalie Portman Holy she is.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Renee Russo. Renee Russo plays Frigga in the Marvel series.
She's actually really good at it, so I picture her
as this, But like Thor is not her favorite son,
it's not Loki. It is definitely Balder. Uh. He has
a bad dream and he's like, mom, I had a
bad dream, and she's like, what are you dream about.
It's like I dreamed I was gonna fucking die like soon.
And she's like, oh, well, fuck that. And because she
(16:01):
is kind of a tiger mom, she makes everything swear
an oath that they will not harm her son. Okay,
And when I say everything, I mean everything literally all creatures,
all creatures swear to friget that they won't harm her son.
As well as fire water, all metals, all trees, all stones,
and all illnesses all swear an oath to not harm boulder.
(16:24):
They all do. They all swear. They're like, okay, cool,
that's fine. We know he's your favorite. We're not gonna
hurt him. So, like talk about feeling like you're the favorite.
You would know at that point, like all of creation
just sworn out to hurt you because your mom is like, no,
I don't want my little boy to die. So the
only thing she does not make swear this oath is mistletoe,
because mistletoe was thought to be too young and too
(16:44):
slender to even need to take the oath. I would
like to do a quick side note that the only
plant you didn't make swear the oath has the word
missile in the fucking name. That's kind of on you,
friga like Jesus Christ, who's from a different isn't actual.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Missletoe like poisonous?
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I don't know. That's a great question.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Actually, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I don't know how we went from mistletoe being like
this ominous forbear, like harbinger of doom, to being something
that people make out underneath.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, it's interesting to see how something can become so
famous in so many different cultures.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Most of the time, people aren't actually kissing under real
mistletoe anyway, Yeah, holly right or something like that. Yeah,
because I'm people just want to kiss. I mean, we're human,
we're human. But I'm pretty sure. Yeah, actual mistletoe is
poisonous or something like that.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
That's interesting.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Let's jump back into the world of the gods. So
there's this guy, I don't know if you heard of him.
His name is Loki. So they got of mischievous trickery,
indecent deeds, basically dirty deed done dirt cheap.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
He's holding the timelines together, that's.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
What he's all about. Yeah. In the Marvel universe and
in like Norse mythology, Loki is a fucking prick. He's
not a good guy. Like, let me just put that
out there. There's a lot of people like, Oh, Loki
does good things. He's a very player in Ragnarok, and
he is a fucking asshole. So he basically does some
work behind the scenes where he convinces, through his tricks
and manipulation, a blind god who's also I think a
(18:10):
son of Odin. I need to check on that named.
He has a bunch of different names. There's h oo
R or h o D or h O d u R.
So we're gonna call him Hoder because that's technically what
his name is, and I'm not trying to make another
Game of Thrones reference. But he convinces Hoder, who is blind,
to throw a shaft of mistletoe at Balder, and he does, which,
of course fucking kills Balder. So all these things that
(18:34):
swore the oath not to hurt Balder, and then of
course Balder just winds up fucking dying because Logi is
like twitally.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
D a projectile named missleto a shaft of mistletoe?
Speaker 2 (18:45):
What kills Balder? Okay, frigacies her favorite son die and
suffers her first quote great sorrow she has two, and
she cries aloud to the gods fuck because she's like
not happy, okay with Balder dead. Friga goes to Hell
not the place, the person who you can call Hella
(19:06):
and picture as Kate Blanchette if you want hat and
she's like, yo, like you're in charge of this shit,
just fucking send them back, bitch, And Hella's like, all right,
but on one condition, everything and everyone needs to weep
for Balder. We can't just do it just because you're
fucking sad. And Frigg is like, bet, and guess what
everyone and everything does, every living creature, nature, all the gods.
(19:29):
Even Hella's just like, oh shit, I'm crying all of
a sudden, What the fuck happened?
Speaker 1 (19:32):
They made everything?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Hella sad, Yeah, Hella sad. That's where that term comes from.
Everything existence does weep for Balder except for a lady
giant or a giant test if you'd prefer named thock
th h o kk. She ruins it, so no Balder resurrection.
Frigg is like that, bitch. Spoiler alert, Thoc is actually
Loki in disguise and he is loving it wow, because
(19:56):
he's a prick and even though he's a prick, I
gotta fucking dig his style. He fucks everything up. So
balder dying is actually it brings about the Great winter,
Like that's the first thing that brings the Great winter out.
And the long winter causes humanity to go from like,
oh it's winter to like where the fuck is summer
or spring? And then people get nervous. And the further
the winter goes on, resources starts to deplete. People get nervous,
(20:18):
and that's when the fighting begins. And let's be real, folks,
human beings don't need much of an excuse to fight
one another, like I just said, like, they don't need
much of an excuse to make out earlier. The thing
that they like to do is fight and fuck. And
when things are scary and resources are scarce, fighting tends
to happen. And uh, with a three year winter, imagine
(20:41):
what that would actually bring. I totally buy that this
is exactly what would happen, Like something would go bad.
Greed rises as quickly as desperation in a situation like this,
and sooner or later like war is breaking out, and
that's exactly what happens. And then when the war breaks out,
on Midguard, also known as Earth. We get our first omen,
which I really fucking like three roosters crow, not a
(21:06):
complicated omen, not like something super fucking elaborate, each one
sending a message of doom to a different plane. The
first rooster is called Golden KAMBI probably mispronounced it's the
golden Rooster, and awakens the gods Nascar, letting them know
like Ragnarocus here I fy'all are is the red rooster,
(21:27):
and it sounds the alarm to the giants because the
giants are like the opposing side.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Okay uh.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
And then in the Shadows of Hell, which in this
context makes it sound like it's the place, not the person,
a nameless black rooster crows to awake the dead because
they have a part to play too well.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
I mean it could be that like the shadows of Hell,
you said, right.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
H e l correct, the same way you spell hell, the.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Shadows of the person, the shadow of that person in
her realm.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Yeah, essentially like a black rousters like wake up it is.
I'll talk about this a little bit later, but the
people that are dead that she commands are different than
some of the other folks that are in Valhalla. Uh,
the winner is really the beginning, but the true herald
of Ragnarok starting are the three cocks. The three cocks
of the Apocalypse is what I call them, The three
(22:16):
cock cock populypse doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I thought you're gonna be this. This is like the three.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Cook cows, the three cock populps. Now let's move on
from this joke. I couldn't make it work. Okay, Loki
here's the cocks and is like, let's do this shit
because this is what he's been planning the whole time.
He wasn't just doing this shit for funzies, like sometimes
he's like an agent of chaos. This was his plan.
He's like he wants to bring about the end because
(22:44):
like I don't know if you fucking know this, but like,
aside from the fact that he is kind of a prick,
like uh, Jorgman Deer, which is the midguard serpent of
the world term, but that you covered and friend Rear
are considered his children, okay, which are like agents of
the end of time, of the end of the era
of gods or whatever, and like they belong to him.
(23:06):
So now that he hears this, he's like, let's fucking
wake him up, so he goes and he gets his children.
He tells him like, come on, it's time, like legit.
Monsters like those are who he has rolling on his side,
and they have very big parts to play in the
end of everything. Robin just covered yorbig and Deer said
it really fast. Last episode, the world serpent who lays
at the bottom of the ocean, at the bottom of
(23:27):
the sea and wraps all the way around the world
and has his tail in his mouth, passing eons by
by presumably eating his own ass. I'd like to point
out that there could be a giant snake wrapped around
the world biting its own tail. We wouldn't fucking know,
because the ocean is deep and full of terrors.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Well, I'm majority of the ocean hasn't even.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Been discovered, discovered or invescated, just laying down there in
the darkness. It's also interesting because I grew up, well
I shouldn't say interesting, it's actually not even fucking impressive.
I grew up hearing that like my intestine, if it
was removed and wretched, could wrap all the way around
the world. I blame King of the Hill for that.
And I went and listened to that actual audio clip
from the episode and still says that really talked about
(24:10):
it at school. I still remember. And then like the
myth like a year later became that you could wrap
your intestine if it was stretched out around the world
seven times. So I blame King of the Hill for
starting this. But I'm sure that came from somewhere.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Oh I thought it was you know how men. Okay,
you know the little cables inside your little do dads?
Uh huh nuts. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that is what
could like once you unfurl it.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
No fucking way, I'm that's even worse. See, this is
why I want the world to end, because this is
all just here saying conjecture and bullshit, and it just
drives me crazy.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
You know what Fay could tell us.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Fay could tell us, So Fay let us know if
you're listening to this AnyWho, the world serpent finally stops
biting his tail and he wakes up because his dad
is like, yo, let's go end everything, and he rises
up out of the ocean. And this is when it
goes from like, oh, winters lasted really long and people
are fighting. This is a war that engulfs the world
to like, oh shit, it's the end of the fucking world.
A giant serpent the size of the planet has just
(25:09):
risen from the ocean, which carries with it the real
consequences you would expect from a fucking giant serpent rising
out of the ocean, which is like every body of
water trembles and it becomes completely unmanageable the seas just
like writhe essentially. And then aside from that, Fenreer wakes up,
who has been chained and imprisoned by the gods because
he's basically a giant feral dog and the gods have
(25:31):
been like turning your fucking dog Loki before he kills
the world, and Loki was like totally d I like
him like that, Like he breaks his chains and he
heads for you know, his master, so he can go
and you know, partake in the final battle. Yorminghen Deer
rises up, and the massive waves all around the world
cause havoc. And also he just like opens his mouth
and breathes out, and his like breath is poison, and
(25:52):
he poisons the sea and the sky by doing just that.
So the world's pretty fucking.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
And this is this is post three Winters.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Yes, this is like near the end of the third Winter,
like he just wakes up and he's this is the
thing the world. Serpent isn't waking up to fucking destroy
the world. He's just waking up to go to Asgard
to participate in the final battles. He wakes up, yawns,
and fucks off, and the world is essentially doomed at
that point, Like the oceans are so fucked not just
(26:21):
in Midguard, but like all across all the realms that
there's this ship called the Naglfar. I know I'm not
saying that right, but it's a massive ship constructed entirely
from and I'm not making this up, the untrimmed nails
of the Dead, which is fucking gross. It sails because
it's finally set free from the like turbulence and all
(26:41):
the water and all the realms from the underworld with
Loki at the helm, and it's captained by herm Hrym,
who's the leader of the Frost Giants, and it's filled
with an army of the Giants and has all the
Loki's followers. It has the armies of Hella, which are
all of those who died the Shame Death and didn't
make it to Valhalla, okay, and it has fen Reer
(27:03):
and yorminggen Deer is alongside, like let's fucking go, and
they're all heading to Asgard. They're like, let's go fucking
take this down. And then at the same time, this
dude called Serd wakes up. Curder is definitely in Thor Ragnarok,
and he's depicted pretty fucking well. He's he's a fire
giant and he wakes up. He's like, it's time to
(27:25):
rig fucking wreck the world in all creation. And here's
a line I really like from the legend. And this
isn't a direct translation, it's just a recap, but it's
it's pretty cool. It says quote his sword blazes brighter
than the sun, and wherever his footsteps fall the landing
knights behind him trails an army of fire giants eager
to scorch the heavens.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
And he walks there and every time he steps he
basically creates more fire giants that are following him. And
they don't go with Loki. They walk the whole way
and they get to the rainbow bridge, not the one
that your pets cross when they die. I also don't
know why people call it the one to get to
the one to get to ask guard. He and his
army are so heavy the fucking rainbow bridge shatters, just
(28:07):
sh They still make it there somehow, but they break
the rainbow bridge. And on the way, of course, Heimdahl,
who we can all pictures in your cell with golden eyes,
which is like a different hot yep, which it wouldn't
have been hard for them to do for Paring and
the fucking Wheel of Time series because it's a pretty
basic fucking contact. You could just buy a dude to
make his eyes look good. Anyways, he's like, oh fuck,
(28:27):
and he blows gyall horn, which has the word horn
in it, which he's basically been carrying with him forever
because he's the dude who sees everything happening in all
of the nights. It is the warning. If you hear
this horn blow, it means this is the end. It's
like if you're at the Knight's Watch and you hear
the third blow of the horn, that means like white
Walker's are here. Like everyone's been waiting to hear this sound,
(28:47):
and when they hear it, they're like, oh fuck. Like
the world tree Urgaseel or however you pronounce it. Its
roots literally shake just from the sound of the horn
being blown. And that is the thing that not all,
not only have the gods been woken up by the
rooster crowing, like this is them getting out of bed
and putting on their armor and picking up their weapons,
like yeah, it's time to go to the final battle.
And they have a bunch of people on their side
(29:08):
as well, aside from all the gods that you know
in love like Odin and Thor all the other dudes
who are players in the Norse mythology, they fucking are
ready to roll. And they also bring with them all
the heroes who died valiantly in battle from Valhalla, so
you don't even get to rest.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Wait, so okay, they can pull their dead warriors.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Well that's what hell Loki did. They took all the
shamed warriors who didn't die honorable deaths, and they're like,
we're bringing them. So the gods like, hey, you guys
that died honorable deaths, Like, I know, we said you're
gonna go to Valhalla to drink beer and fuck bitches,
but like, do you want to die again? And they're
like yeah, sure, why not. And so they all roll
out and they're not going to have this fight in
like the city of Asgard, like you've seen in Thor.
(29:47):
They go to a completely different location which I have
in my script, and they'll give you the name of.
At one point, they meet at the plane of Vigrid,
which I had in the next bullet point, because I
really just plan this out super well, and I'm very
happy that my script is flowing like that it is
in Asgard's realm because Earth or Midguard would not be
able to handle the conflict of the gods. And the
(30:07):
battle starts and they just fucking clash, these endless lines
of just like two different armies intent on murdering one another.
They collide, and when the battle starts, Odin is like, yo,
watch me kill Loki's dog, and he goes after fenriar oh,
and he runs over and Fendrier fucking eats him just chop.
Odin dies like right away. And I thought he was
(30:29):
supposed to be super strong, but I mean he is,
but Fenrier is the creature that's destined to kill Odin,
and he does. And Thor is like, I'm gonna help,
and he's like, well, you know, what, I'm gonna go
fight a snake that's the size of a fucking planet.
And Thor starts fighting Yrmingen Deer, which is something that
you talked about in the previous episode, and Vadar vid Ar,
another son of Odin, is like, I guess then, I'm
(30:50):
the one who will avenge Dad. You fucking dick ahead,
and he's like not happy with Thor, and he goes
and he fights Fenrier and he does really well, and
in the end he takes Fenriar and he basically puts
his foot on his bottom jaw and his hands on
his oulder jaw, and he rips his fucking head wide open,
and then he stabs him in his heart and that's
how Fenriar dies. The dog that follows okay, and so
(31:11):
that's how Odin is avenged by his son, fen Rear,
by Odin's son, Yeah, by Odin's son, which is, you know,
horrific if you really love dogs, but realistically, like this
is a super evil dog. Though's probably a Nazi to
so you know, not have to feel too bad. Thor
fights Yrmagander and the battle like crazy all over asgard
he is also trying to protect Midguard because he's, you know,
(31:33):
upset that it's pretty fucked and down there. Yeah, it's
because Natalie Portman, Princess Amidala is down there. No Senator Almidala.
But realistically he I shouldn't say realistically, none of this
shit is realistic. But he fights the world serpents. It's
a great battle. He hits him enough with his hammer
(31:54):
that he does kill him. And after the battle's over
he has been filled with and covered with poison so
much that he's able to take nine steps before dying.
Oh sad, that's authoritize. Meanwhile, on Earth, it's not like
everything's peachy keen jelly being down there because everything super fucked.
The sky and the seas have been poisoned. The war
just continues to rage on because everyone's panicking, like every
(32:15):
corner of the globe essentially is in conflict.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Okay, so the world's had a three year winter? Correct
does when it comes to this nor Norse mythology and
things like that, is that something like how they describe
the ice age, like this three year winter is the
ice age that the Earth goes through.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
I don't think Norse mythology really described the ice age
too much. I think it's just meant to represent like
the death of all like nature and how crazy it
would drive people to have all things be so scarce
and dark and harsh.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Okay, so it's not based on like events like to
kind of describe a reason why certain things happen, like
why the ice age happened, or why this happened.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
I think they just understand as a people because this
is a myth that goes back like a thousand years
that like winter is a time that's very harsh, especially
where they're from, and it's a time where people and
things die, and they're saying, like, you know, would be
the end of the world, a winter that lasts three years,
like you wouldn't be able to survive that, versus them
trying to describe like some historical event like an ice age.
(33:19):
This is more than like based off of their culture
stating like this is the worst thing that could happen.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
I just think it's interesting that they would come up
with this story, you know, and it's a quote unquote
story of what is it supposed to be real or
is it supposed to I mean, it's.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Like it's their religion, bro, Like this is what they
thought was going to happen at the end of the world,
so it is very real to them. I don't know
who made this up. I don't know who the person was.
It like to side, like, yeah, make the winter three years,
that's really good, So it's you know, it is what
it is. I don't know the origin of why they
chose winter or why they chose out how long it is,
but to me it makes sense that it's like it's
(33:57):
the season where everything dies into them. Three years would
be a substantial amount of time because like resources would
run super thin and people would kill each other for sure.
So jumping back into it though, although Loki, Friender and
Yorming and Deer are big players in Ragnarok, the main
dude that's gonna fuck shut up I mentioned was Surta
is the one who like brings about the actual end.
(34:19):
He's like his sword and his flames are essentially what
burns all creation out. And there's another god named Frey
or Freyer. There's always like an r at the end
of different stuff, but there's a lot of places that
call him just Frey and he steps up and he's
not an Odin son. He's a different god and he's
just like, well, someone has to fucking fight this dude,
So I guess it's gonna be me. And he is
the god normally of fertility, and if you see like
(34:42):
statues of him, it's like this, like dude crouching down
wearing a crown. He is just a giant rock hard
dick what Like his statues are fucking cool. He's also
do it fertility god. Yeah, I'm gonna put him right
on our fucking headboard. He's also associated with peace, prosperity,
fair weather, and good harvest, all good things, basically all
(35:05):
the boners of nature. So side note, yeah, similar, not
as hot. Side note, long story short on Frey. There's
so much stuff on this specific god. He's a really
good dude. And he had a messenger who wanted to
go to a different realm and essentially, if I'm remembering
this correctly, get laid and he's like, hey, can you
(35:28):
give me your horse and your sword? And his sword
is like super fucking dope. It can fight on its own,
like it'll fight the bad guys by itself, and in
his hands it's like one of the most unstoppable weapons
in Norse mythology. He's like, take my sword, go smash,
and he never gets his sword back. And it's very
relevant because this dude is like, I'm gonna fight Soirda
and he's like looking at Scabber like fuck, hope that
(35:51):
dude got laid because he has to fight him without
his sword. So he does, and they have this epic
fucking battle and despite trying super hard, he does die.
Kill sad negative ten Aura bad vibes, So okay.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Adam doesn't even know what any of these mean.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Ten Aura is pretty straightforward bad vibes. Even more so,
keep in mind I'm giving you the big players here.
There's endless hordes of dead, disgraced, evil people along with
the entire pantheon, the gods when it comes to Norse
mythology who are participating in this, and all the valiant warriors.
They're all there, all the good guys. They're all murdering
each other on the plains of Vigrid until it's a
(36:30):
wasteland of blood and death.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Is it blasphemous of you to call it a pantheon.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
No, the pantheon just literally means a group of gods.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
But it's from the Greek. It's from because it's Greek
and you're talking about Norse and they.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Literally refer to themselves as the Pantheon because that's what
the word meant. So I want to get free his due,
by the way, like I didn't just talk about how
this guy has a rock hard dick, which I assume
is what he fought Surterer with since he didn't have
a sword, or maybe he swung around his balls of
steal and beat his house with it. But like Surder
and Freer are supposed to kill each other, so even
(37:02):
though he dies first, he Fuckster up enough where he's
going to die after the battle, but he survives their combat.
So Curter basically turns around, looks at the wasteland that
is the battle, feelings like I came here to do
a fucking job, and I'm gonna do it. So you
can picture that scene from thor Ragnarok if you want,
where he plunges his sword into Asgard and the entire
(37:23):
fucking thing explodes. He doesn't just do that. He basically
covers all of Asgard and Midguard in his fires and flames,
and he probably looked over at Midguard and saw a
planet filled with squabbling mortals who live such short, pointless
lives and thoughts to himself. Fuck them kids. Oh, he's
totally cool with getting rid of them. Stop after loses
(37:47):
the battle.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
You should never tell children's stories. You're the worst. You
are the ass.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
This episode is marked for explicit folks. For everyone E
on podcasting means explicit. Oh God, okay, because the end
of the fight between him and Freyre is basically like
the end of all things. Uh. He spreads his flames
(38:13):
at the same time the sun goes black and basically
goes out, which would be a horrifying thing to see.
The Earth literally sinks into the sea, so every like
land mass collapses into the ocean.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Okay. I was gonna be like, how does the Earth
sink into this? Make sense? Got it?
Speaker 2 (38:29):
The stars vanish, the fires cause steam to rise from
the oceans, and like untold amounts as the Earth essentially
goes under. I mean Earth is like the literal land
masses and the flames before they get snuffed out, touched
the heavens, creation itself.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
On Earth drowns, and that is how we lost Atlantis.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Yeah, very similar. Sure, And as I was reading that,
I was like, fuck, yes, that's the stuff I'm talking about, Like,
what but Ragnarok, here's the thing. Ragnarok isn't just about
the end of the world and the gods end of
all living things. It's actually about rebirth as well, which
I forgot about. Some gods do return from hell, the person,
(39:13):
placer thing whatever. They get to come back and they
get to run the show. What's super interesting is the
two gods that basically get to be in charge are
Bolder and Hoder. We basically figure things out and holds
like you good, I'm blind right, and Boulders like shit happens, bro,
I get it. It's a bummer. They get to come
back and they get to be the person that the
(39:34):
two people who are like in charge of creation.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
After that, that's cool.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
So I was like, oh dope, like they made up.
And then there's two humans Lift l If and Lift Pricier,
which translates to roughly Life and Life's Lover. A man
and a woman who have been hiding out in a
place called Hotommi's Holt, which is like a forest where
somehow they're able to survive the entire thing. And when
(39:59):
it's over, the earth rises back out of the sea.
It's cleansed and lush and green and teeming with life again,
but not humanity. It's just these two humans lift and
lift procre very, Adam and Eve. They basically look at
each other, and the gods look at them, and everyone
thinks the same thing, like get to fucking like. The
literal translation, okay from the legend of Ragnarok is from
(40:23):
them generations will spring.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
And they don't procreate with the gods anymore.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
There's nothing in there about it. This is the end
of the thing I'm talking to you about. You can
ask the person who wrote it, like a thousand years old.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Oh well, I'm just wondering because there's in Greek mythology,
at least, there's a lot of.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
Demos that that happens a lot in Norse mythology too.
I'm telling you about, like Ragnarok, what happens when Ragnarok's over.
It doesn't say, ps, the gods fucked their kids. So
Ragnarok isn't just an end of the world legend or myth.
It's it's literally a story of rebirth. It is a
very bloody and fiery ending caused by shitty, awful people
and gods doing a lot of shitty and awful things,
(41:02):
And it has a lot of parallels to parts of
other religions. Like you've mentioned several times, things that rely
to you reminded you either of like Christianity specifically, or
of like you know, cultural reference. It's like Game of
Thrones or whatever. But like a lot of those are
like tied to different pieces of different religions. And although
the ending is one of like a cyclical nature of
life and death and how they flow into one another,
(41:24):
my favorite part is still where everyone dies, just because
it's like who'll let it end? And if you're like me,
it does help to ignore the connection of a snake
biting its tail wrapped around the world to the circular
nature of creation, Like if you think about it enough,
like yorming and dear is really just doing his purpose.
It's not really his fault, right, so you know, it's
not necessarily the worst thing in the world. That hope,
(41:46):
thing that you can really tie into this story really is,
you know, awful, it's the worst.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
I mean, there's a lot of lore and a lot
of stuff throughout history. That's just the world being destroyed,
born again, to destroyed, born again, destroyed, born, and that's
just the tale of everything. Right, the world went through
an ice age, destroyed and like.
Speaker 2 (42:06):
You mentioned why did the gods fuck the eventual humans
that would populate the earth, which I guess is the
way you want me to say that because you're weird
like you can totally assume that the new pantheon of
gods and those generations born from Lyft and Lift Purceer
probably will eventually follow the same path and make the
same mistakes, causing another cataclysmic destruction of existence and rebirth.
(42:28):
That part is pretty metal as fuck. For being honest,
I do think the point of this particular telling of
the end of creation is that it isn't the end,
and that every cycle which always comes back, no matter
how endless or maddening or like pointless it may seem,
is to give you a chance to do it different
every time and to be better and to finally get
(42:50):
it right, which is what I take from it, and
when I've always sort of taken from it, and if
it doesn't work, you get to end at all in
fire and blood, which is pretty fucking cool.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
I'm just thinking an asteroid came, took out all the dinosaurs,
fire and blood, we came back again, endless winter, and uh,
Pigley could be the next thing. It's crossed.
Speaker 2 (43:14):
No, that's only a city killer.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
Oh, it's only a city kill. Okay. I totally don't
remember the details of that.
Speaker 2 (43:20):
Doesn't remember anything about my topics.
Speaker 1 (43:23):
But you never know. I don't know. Things could happen.
The world has has.
Speaker 2 (43:28):
All I know is of a fucking snake the size
of the world rose out of the ocean. I'd be like,
called it, this is the end of everything. But that's
pretty fucking cool. That's a really big snake. I'm glad
I got to see it.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
Well, when we see a lot of the strange creatures
and the strange stuff that kind of washes up on shore,
or that you see once in a blue moon, like
that random ancient shark that got recorded a few years back.
Like when stuff like that happens, I'm just flattery astid.
There has to be some crazy thing at the bottom
(44:02):
of the ocean, you know that we just haven't seen yet.
Speaker 2 (44:04):
I mean, the further deep down you get, I guarantee
you there's just more and more bizarre sh Yeah, for sure, fascinating.
So absolutely, Yeah, that's where Yorming and deer lives. And
maybe we'll introduce some self to us one day. But
in the meantime that my spook of friends is Ragnarak.
Speaker 1 (44:20):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
I hope you enjoyed it. I would really like to
would really fuck you. That was awesome. I would really
like to cover revelations like the Christian end. I've thought
about it a lot. The problem is that it's not
just about telling people like, don't correct my telling of
the story, like so many people take it so fucking seriously,
(44:42):
like I could get it perfectly right and people are
still going to be crazy.
Speaker 3 (44:45):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
The problem with covering anything like that is it's been
retold so many times and changed so many times that
one person could say.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
That I can literally tell you what revelation said, like
the rich language it was written, and so many people.
Speaker 1 (45:01):
Would be like, you're fucking because they whoever would say
that is because they've grown up being.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
So rigid and they get so upset if they hear
anything that doesn't run one thousand percent exactly true to
what they've been told. It's very hard to cover stuff
like that, which is why we don't, which is why
I typically don't. I really want to, like, this is
the thing, I know what happened, right, I would tell
folks that what I have to shit.
Speaker 1 (45:33):
So fucking bad. I have a really bad tummy ache,
so I just thought i'd warn you.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
Okay, I just know if I started the topic and
I told folks i'm gonna be covering revelations, I'm gonna
be reading, uh like, I'm gonna tell you my version
of it after I've read the things, and I'm gonna
leave stuff out. Also disclaimer, this could all be bullshit.
Someone would set their fucking iPod on fire and throw
it through a window and be like, this could all
be bullshit. I hope this dude birds now, Like, there's
(45:59):
just no telling how pissed off people are going to get.
So yeah, we'll see whether or not I decided to
go through it. I might though, but yeah, that's everything
for me. I hope you guys enjoyed this episode. If
you have any stories you would like to share with

Oh bye,
Hey, there's spooky friends and welcome to another episode of
the Scarish podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Whoo.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
I'm Robin Grace. This is Adam Dazo and we're a
podcast that covers interesting, scaryish true crime, you know, paranormal.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
We do all that fun stuff. Anything that could be
classified as scary ish we try and cover, which you
guys know. This is like the three hundred and eleventh
top episode.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Also, if you're new, welcome. We don't take ourselves seriously.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
No, and you can tell because you can hear our
dogs walking around. So we don't have a carpet for
our new office yet. Hopefully they'll chill out because it
is kind of late. We're recording this on April thirtieth,
twenty twenty five. You know what that means Tomorrow it's
gonna be May's May. Yeah, we are doing roughly two
episodes a month right now. We're doing like every other week,
(00:58):
which is kind of a decent cadence for us. We're
trying to get three minimum per month. But the first
week of the month is always a kind of a nightmare.
I wanted to cover that because my birthday is actually
May the eleventh, which is also known as Mother's day,
So Happy Mother's Day. Tell you mother's out there. We
will likely not have an episode directly after that because
(01:19):
we're gonna be in Scottsdale, Arizona for a work thing
for me.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, Adam is now a corporate drone, Yes, corporate drone
things to do.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
We're having this like fun little like field day thing
for three days out in Scottsdale, which should be interesting
to say the least. They have some events that actually
sound really fun, like go karts and top golf, So
what the heck, Yeah, it's gonna.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Be do you freaking I don't know. Don't say you're
actual company, but I can't believe you work for a
company who's like, we're gonna do field day, but we're
gonna do golf and go carts.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
You know what, an obstacle course too. So field day.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
For me is we're gonna play flag football and maybe
some botchy you.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Know, we're gonna have either of those. In my field day,
we just did a bunch of track and field events
and then we also had like the crab walk in
the gym, which I was really funny.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Oh you're talking about like high school now.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I'm talking about like elementary school Feast, oh, which was
dope as shit. But yeah, so the May eleventh through
the seventeenth, I think somewhere around there we're going to
be out of town, so there won't be an episode then,
but this will be the first one that comes out
in May. It's coming out. I'm just gonna release it tomorrow,
so May first. So excited about that. It is the
super busy time at work for me right now, but
I want to make sure to get an episode out
(02:31):
since it's the beginning of the month and we need
to do some shout outs. We do have a Patreon
over at patreon dot com slash Scarish Podcast where you
can sign up for monthly donations and there's a bunch
of different tiers. The Intro tier gets you no ads
and you get an early access, and then each subsequent
level after that grants you a little bit more bonuses,
including the stuff they came before. At the shout Out level,
(02:53):
the shout Out tier and above. We do thank all
the patrons who are donating that much or more every month,
So shout out to Carl, olav Shandon and Fay, and
a special shout out to a Dulce who I think
their account for whatever reason, didn't show up properly the
last time we did shoutouts, and they got it fixed immediately.
They messaged us on Patreon. They're like, oh my god,
(03:14):
I'm so sorry. I'm sorry I missed my shout out,
so double shout out. Thank you so much Dulce for
being so damn too. We very much appreciate it, And
thank you to all the patrons who are over there donating.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
If if you're not getting a shout out, yeah me
and and you know what, if you guys have stuck
with us for this long, we are so incredibly thankful
because we are the most inconsistent Patreon patroon host people.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I did try putting up like mini topics and like
the story behind the topic type of thing, and I
did them like three weeks in a row, and they
got like single digit views. So I was like, well,
I'm stopping this shit. Clearly this is not the content.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
You know. Sometimes, you know what, maybe we'll just while
we're on we're doing a road trip to Scottsdale. Guys.
Adam didn't want to like cough up money for a flight,
so we're going to be driving.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I just like to drive you to my company's paying
for the flight. I also like to have my own car.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
There anyway, Okay, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Want to cough up money, this bitch says, I past
some bills around.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
We're gonna so maybe I'll just do random videos while
we do our road trip, posting the patreons. You guys
can see how boring we are. Yeah, I don't know. Well,
we'll try to make it more fun.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah, either way, thank you so much for everyone who
supports us. You have a supporter in your corner, always
sending good spirit on energy your way, and if you're
wonder who that is, it's gonna be made so bad
right now, seriously, all that to say, yeah, we're back
episode three eleven, gonna be covering that band. I love
(04:43):
that band. It's an Adam episode. So I'm blanking on.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I'm thinking of Three Doors Down. I don't know what
three eleven eleven?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
You got three Doors Down in three eleven mixed up
three Doors Down. I know they have the stupid Superman
song at the day three eleven. I can't remember a
song from three eleven, So I'm just gonna move on
from that.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
You know, there's a huge three to eleven fan out
there and they're just like, I'm so ashamed of you
right now.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Those are forgetting about this and this that actually brings
me up to a good point. So my topic today
is like lower its mythology theology for some if you
still practice the ancient ways of the Norse, and I'm
gonna go over it. And I don't want anyone to
be offended if I leave something out or if I
have certain people in the wrong spots, And I want
(05:28):
you to understand that I have read a ton of
this back in the day. I refresh myself over the
last week, week and a half on a lot of it,
and certain people just got to get cut. You know,
I only have like four and a half five five
ish pages that I can really work into an episode.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
They're gonna end up on the cutting room floor and
that's just gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
So it's not that I don't know. So you don't
need to tweet at me or yell at me and say, oh,
you didn't know this, because a lot of people like
to be you know, know it alls and it's like
you forgot this part. Like I get it. I had
to leave some stuff out, So don't get up it's
not a personal attack on you. Like, everyone still loves you.
I talk to your parents, they all love you too. No,
(06:07):
but seriously, like some people get pissed off if I
leave certain things out of certain topics, and I want
to let you know, like this is one where you
don't need to get like too serious about it. I'm
just trying to get through the story of Ragnarok, because
we did talk about it a little bit.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
We did talk about it last episode. Last episode involved
some of that mythology, and Adam was like, you know what,
I'm gonna do it. So he's doing it. We're doing it.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I am fulfilling the prophecy that was set forward to
last last episode. I'm covering something that does overlap with
a little bit of the content from the previous episodes,
so I'm get upset about that. Twenty twenty five has
been quite a year so far, and it's one that
inspires me to root for asteroids that are hurtling towards
Earth to hit Itigley, let's go, please, gotta let it end.
So what could be more cathartic of an activity than
(06:53):
dealing with the way the world is right now By
talking about how it's supposed to end. It sounds fun.
So I really wanted to do this topic. And what
better end of the world prophecy to start with than
one written by the Norse because they were pretty fucking cool.
So let's just get to it. Cover in Ragnarock, let's
dive in feet first. I was thinking about making this
(07:15):
a monthly theme. I've done like man Eater May in
the past and stuff like that, where I covered like
a bunch of different animals that killed a bunch of people.
But I couldn't come up with a good name for
the theme, like to talk about all the like end
of the world foretellings. I thought like Pigley may would
be fun, but that doesn't sound right, so I didn't
have a nice ring to it.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I kind of like faded away from it.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
So may it end is pretty fucking good, I said
for my fortieth birthday, which is coming up in like
less than two weeks now, it could be something along
the lines of, like, maybe that's why I'm so about
the world ending nowadays, because you're turning forty. You could
call this like my midlife crisis. May, so I do
(07:59):
like may and end. That's pretty good. I mean, who knows.
Maybe I'd have an actual midlife crisis if I could
fucking afford it, But apparently I can't even cough up
the bucks for a flight to Scotsta, Arizona. You're such
a twad. She's smiling. Don't get mad. But yeah, that said,
I guess my midlife crisis is just coming in the
form of wanting the world to end at this point.
(08:19):
And when you do your topics, you know in May,
you don't have to follow the theme. Maybe I could
just like buy a corvette that can rev in the
background while you're.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Talking, so you know, we're not that far apart in age.
You know, life is your midiness coming.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Up on your midlife crisis too, what do you mean
coming up on? Shout out to my dad. By the way,
he totally did buy himself a corvette for his mid
life crisis, So for him, to be honest, like, if
I'm going to put in full context, it was really
more of a lifelong goal that was finally fulfilled. He
was trying to buy the car for a very long time,
so just because he was old by the time he
was able to accomplish it didn't necessarily make it a
mid life crisis. The ear ring was probably more than
(08:55):
midless choices.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
So the ear rings, he's got multiple ear he has.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Two piercings in the same ear. Yeah, those happened very
close to each other, so he was probably like forty
ish forty five somewhere around there. I can try and
do like the midlife crisis thing that like happens to
ladies sometimes, at least some of the ladies that I've known.
We suddenly start like deciding to act young and like
using young people slang and like cap some folks do
(09:22):
like occasional plastic surgery. I can't afford that, and I'm
not judging you if you do, so I could do that.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Let's get you some boatox.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
No, I don't want botox. I want tits. Oh my
rock tits. I just like to be talking to people like, hey,
my eyes are up here, So I do that. Anyways. Anyways,
let's forget about this gibbety toilet of a year. No
Ragnar rock top, no cap fam. I'll spill the Norse
tee ohio just like it means bad, Like Garrett told
(09:56):
me that in the most recent Twats of twats, And
it makes me so happy to know that, which is
one of my least favorite states, is like gen Z
slang for like lame or stupid? Is that?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
The word that Peyton Manning said during.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
That was Omaha o maha. That's a city of state. Yeah.
Saying all those gen Z terms made me kind of
like want to run a cheese grater over my tongue
to feel better, so I'll probably not go with that
bit anymore. So anyways, let's talk about Ragnarok, right. It
is by far the best Thor movie. The Thor movies
in order of goodness goes three, one, two four. If
(10:32):
you disagree with me, that is your right as an
individual to have your own opinion. But do know just
because you have an opinion doesn't mean it can't be wrong,
and yours is and you're fucking stupid.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
He has strong opinions. Guys.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
I'm gonna tried telling me that episode three Revenge of
the Sides great, and that a New Hope the original
Star Wars movie was garbage, And I told them, they're
a fucking idiot that has garbage taste. And I think
that is an opinion based thing. I think that is
a crime pun shold by death. I fuck you Paul,
I know you don't listen, but.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Garrettas obviously we went to go watch Revenge of the Sixth.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Oh the fuck is that?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I mean? So the twenty five year anniversary twenty twenty
Oh sorry, I'm sorry. Twenty five is mean girls, mean girls,
twenty five years old? Uh so Revenge of the Sith
twenty year anniversary, I guess is this past weekend. We
went to go see it, and so I'm living on
that high highest grossing.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Make me like sidetrack. Here's one thing I should say,
is like seeing Revenge of the Sith reminded me, like
there are a lot of good pieces that I forgot about.
Just the dialogue is so so bad, and the way
certain things are shot, Like you can tell when George
Lucas has two people talk, He's like, I don't know
what the fuck to do.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Babe, babe, what if you're not with me then you're
my enemy?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Yeah? I got it. Thanks the fact there's a part
in that movie where he says, from my point of view,
the Jedi or evil, which is like the thing you
put in brackets when you're writing dialogue, like this is
what my dialogue is supposed to convey. It's like someone
that doesn't know what subtext is and just uses like text.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
This is what our movie podcast is gonna be.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Like, No, movie appreciation podcast is what we're going for.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
No, it'll be so fun, though.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Let's just go ahead and move on, all right, I'm
my bit about the Thorn movies is over. Let's not
even talk about Star Wars. I'm too riled up now.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
He hates it so much.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I don't actually hate it that much. It is the
best of the prequels, I will fully admit that.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
But every single time I looked at you, well I'm
excited about this movie and quoting all the lines from
this movie, Adam's just like this is the worst experience
of all time. It was.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
No, it wasn't the worst experience, but like there's just
certain parts where the beginning where he's standing there watching
like pad Me brush her hair out after she told
him that she's pregnant, uh huh, and he's like staring
and she's like what it's like, you're just so beautiful?
Like that's okay, Like people say that and then like
they have those things like so you're in love because
I'm beautiful? Oh, so love is blind and like the
fucking dialogue is just like shut up, like I just
(13:00):
wanted to yell in the fucking theater. Like it's did
not get better with time anyway, Continue stop bringing up
Star Wars.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
I can't help it.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
We're gonna talk about Ragnarok, which this just makes me
want the world to end even more. I'm gonna go
put the disclaimer at the front that even though this
is an ancient myths slash theology slash lore, it could
all be bullshit that just got made up a long
time ago. Sorry, Odin, don't get mad at me. I'm
just heading in my bets. Don't get upset. The word
Ragnarok literally means twilight of the gods. There's a lot
(13:28):
of different ways people have translated this word in the past.
They usually use it as a compound word, where gods
is I think ragnar I'm not quite sure, but it's
either like doom of the gods destruction of the gods,
depending on the translation. One of the most commonly accepted
translations is actually final destiny of the gods, which I
really like. So we're gonna say Ragnarok means final destination
(13:50):
of the gods. Someone called Newline I have your next
fucking movie, Final Destination.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Ragnarok blood Lines comes out on the sixteen.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
It would actually be pretty cool, and blood Lines does
look pretty good. I'm not gonna lie. I like movies
that understand they're trying to be cheesy, and not movies
that suck and are cheesy and are trying to be
good at the same time.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Hashtag not mad. I wish we could run an act
ro their.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Fucking Final Destination. Bloodlines sponsored our contract my mind. So
as I go through Ragnarok, you're going to recognize certain
things from pop culture, honestly and from Marvel. But it'll
be fun to go through because it's just very interesting.
The first thing that signals Ragnarok, which is not just
the final destination for the gods but for like all creation, uh,
(14:36):
is something that is called the Great Winter. So the
Great Winter is essentially three straight years of winter with
no spring, summer, or fall. Feels very Game of Thrones.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
I was gonna say yes, yeah, and I'm.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Actually kind of lying because that's not really the beginning.
That's the beginning that we would see. So we're gonna
take one step back and go into the realm of
the gods, which is you know where. We're gonna spend
a lot of time here, and I'm gonna let you
know what brings it about that winner. So there's a
god named Balder, which sounds like Balder's Gate, which is
an amazing game series. Balder is the god of light.
(15:08):
He is a son of Odin, and he isn't just
a son. He is like the most loved kid. He's
the favorite. His mom is frig Or Frigga. You can
always see, like with the Norse legend, there's like a
bunch of variations of spelling. So I'll use the names
that you're probably familiar with from stuff like fucking thorpe
So Frigga or his mom who's played by what's the
(15:29):
name of that actress. I don't know why I'm asking you.
You never remember practice.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
All I know is Natalie Portman Holy she is.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Renee Russo. Renee Russo plays Frigga in the Marvel series.
She's actually really good at it, so I picture her
as this, But like Thor is not her favorite son,
it's not Loki. It is definitely Balder. Uh. He has
a bad dream and he's like, mom, I had a
bad dream, and she's like, what are you dream about.
It's like I dreamed I was gonna fucking die like soon.
And she's like, oh, well, fuck that. And because she
(16:01):
is kind of a tiger mom, she makes everything swear
an oath that they will not harm her son. Okay,
And when I say everything, I mean everything literally all creatures,
all creatures swear to friget that they won't harm her son.
As well as fire water, all metals, all trees, all stones,
and all illnesses all swear an oath to not harm boulder.
(16:24):
They all do. They all swear. They're like, okay, cool,
that's fine. We know he's your favorite. We're not gonna
hurt him. So, like talk about feeling like you're the favorite.
You would know at that point, like all of creation
just sworn out to hurt you because your mom is like, no,
I don't want my little boy to die. So the
only thing she does not make swear this oath is mistletoe,
because mistletoe was thought to be too young and too
(16:44):
slender to even need to take the oath. I would
like to do a quick side note that the only
plant you didn't make swear the oath has the word
missile in the fucking name. That's kind of on you,
friga like Jesus Christ, who's from a different isn't actual.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Missletoe like poisonous?
Speaker 2 (17:03):
I don't know. That's a great question.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Actually, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I don't know how we went from mistletoe being like
this ominous forbear, like harbinger of doom, to being something
that people make out underneath.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, it's interesting to see how something can become so
famous in so many different cultures.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Most of the time, people aren't actually kissing under real
mistletoe anyway, Yeah, holly right or something like that. Yeah,
because I'm people just want to kiss. I mean, we're human,
we're human. But I'm pretty sure. Yeah, actual mistletoe is
poisonous or something like that.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
That's interesting.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Let's jump back into the world of the gods. So
there's this guy, I don't know if you heard of him.
His name is Loki. So they got of mischievous trickery,
indecent deeds, basically dirty deed done dirt cheap.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
He's holding the timelines together, that's.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
What he's all about. Yeah. In the Marvel universe and
in like Norse mythology, Loki is a fucking prick. He's
not a good guy. Like, let me just put that
out there. There's a lot of people like, Oh, Loki
does good things. He's a very player in Ragnarok, and
he is a fucking asshole. So he basically does some
work behind the scenes where he convinces, through his tricks
and manipulation, a blind god who's also I think a
(18:10):
son of Odin. I need to check on that named.
He has a bunch of different names. There's h oo
R or h o D or h O d u R.
So we're gonna call him Hoder because that's technically what
his name is, and I'm not trying to make another
Game of Thrones reference. But he convinces Hoder, who is blind,
to throw a shaft of mistletoe at Balder, and he does, which,
of course fucking kills Balder. So all these things that
(18:34):
swore the oath not to hurt Balder, and then of
course Balder just winds up fucking dying because Logi is
like twitally.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
D a projectile named missleto a shaft of mistletoe?
Speaker 2 (18:45):
What kills Balder? Okay, frigacies her favorite son die and
suffers her first quote great sorrow she has two, and
she cries aloud to the gods fuck because she's like
not happy, okay with Balder dead. Friga goes to Hell
not the place, the person who you can call Hella
(19:06):
and picture as Kate Blanchette if you want hat and
she's like, yo, like you're in charge of this shit,
just fucking send them back, bitch, And Hella's like, all right,
but on one condition, everything and everyone needs to weep
for Balder. We can't just do it just because you're
fucking sad. And Frigg is like, bet, and guess what
everyone and everything does, every living creature, nature, all the gods.
(19:29):
Even Hella's just like, oh shit, I'm crying all of
a sudden, What the fuck happened?
Speaker 1 (19:32):
They made everything?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Hella sad, Yeah, Hella sad. That's where that term comes from.
Everything existence does weep for Balder except for a lady
giant or a giant test if you'd prefer named thock
th h o kk. She ruins it, so no Balder resurrection.
Frigg is like that, bitch. Spoiler alert, Thoc is actually
Loki in disguise and he is loving it wow, because
(19:56):
he's a prick and even though he's a prick, I
gotta fucking dig his style. He fucks everything up. So
balder dying is actually it brings about the Great winter,
Like that's the first thing that brings the Great winter out.
And the long winter causes humanity to go from like,
oh it's winter to like where the fuck is summer
or spring? And then people get nervous. And the further
the winter goes on, resources starts to deplete. People get nervous,
(20:18):
and that's when the fighting begins. And let's be real, folks,
human beings don't need much of an excuse to fight
one another, like I just said, like, they don't need
much of an excuse to make out earlier. The thing
that they like to do is fight and fuck. And
when things are scary and resources are scarce, fighting tends
to happen. And uh, with a three year winter, imagine
(20:41):
what that would actually bring. I totally buy that this
is exactly what would happen, Like something would go bad.
Greed rises as quickly as desperation in a situation like this,
and sooner or later like war is breaking out, and
that's exactly what happens. And then when the war breaks out,
on Midguard, also known as Earth. We get our first omen,
which I really fucking like three roosters crow, not a
(21:06):
complicated omen, not like something super fucking elaborate, each one
sending a message of doom to a different plane. The
first rooster is called Golden KAMBI probably mispronounced it's the
golden Rooster, and awakens the gods Nascar, letting them know
like Ragnarocus here I fy'all are is the red rooster,
(21:27):
and it sounds the alarm to the giants because the
giants are like the opposing side.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Okay uh.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
And then in the Shadows of Hell, which in this
context makes it sound like it's the place, not the person,
a nameless black rooster crows to awake the dead because
they have a part to play too well.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
I mean it could be that like the shadows of Hell,
you said, right.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
H e l correct, the same way you spell hell, the.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Shadows of the person, the shadow of that person in
her realm.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Yeah, essentially like a black rousters like wake up it is.
I'll talk about this a little bit later, but the
people that are dead that she commands are different than
some of the other folks that are in Valhalla. Uh,
the winner is really the beginning, but the true herald
of Ragnarok starting are the three cocks. The three cocks
of the Apocalypse is what I call them, The three
(22:16):
cock cock populypse doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I thought you're gonna be this. This is like the three.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
Cook cows, the three cock populps. Now let's move on
from this joke. I couldn't make it work. Okay, Loki
here's the cocks and is like, let's do this shit
because this is what he's been planning the whole time.
He wasn't just doing this shit for funzies, like sometimes
he's like an agent of chaos. This was his plan.
He's like he wants to bring about the end because
(22:44):
like I don't know if you fucking know this, but like,
aside from the fact that he is kind of a prick,
like uh, Jorgman Deer, which is the midguard serpent of
the world term, but that you covered and friend Rear
are considered his children, okay, which are like agents of
the end of time, of the end of the era
of gods or whatever, and like they belong to him.
(23:06):
So now that he hears this, he's like, let's fucking
wake him up, so he goes and he gets his children.
He tells him like, come on, it's time, like legit.
Monsters like those are who he has rolling on his side,
and they have very big parts to play in the
end of everything. Robin just covered yorbig and Deer said
it really fast. Last episode, the world serpent who lays
at the bottom of the ocean, at the bottom of
(23:27):
the sea and wraps all the way around the world
and has his tail in his mouth, passing eons by
by presumably eating his own ass. I'd like to point
out that there could be a giant snake wrapped around
the world biting its own tail. We wouldn't fucking know,
because the ocean is deep and full of terrors.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Well, I'm majority of the ocean hasn't even.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Been discovered, discovered or invescated, just laying down there in
the darkness. It's also interesting because I grew up, well
I shouldn't say interesting, it's actually not even fucking impressive.
I grew up hearing that like my intestine, if it
was removed and wretched, could wrap all the way around
the world. I blame King of the Hill for that.
And I went and listened to that actual audio clip
from the episode and still says that really talked about
(24:10):
it at school. I still remember. And then like the
myth like a year later became that you could wrap
your intestine if it was stretched out around the world
seven times. So I blame King of the Hill for
starting this. But I'm sure that came from somewhere.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Oh I thought it was you know how men. Okay,
you know the little cables inside your little do dads?
Uh huh nuts. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that is what
could like once you unfurl it.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
No fucking way, I'm that's even worse. See, this is
why I want the world to end, because this is
all just here saying conjecture and bullshit, and it just
drives me crazy.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
You know what Fay could tell us.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Fay could tell us, So Fay let us know if
you're listening to this AnyWho, the world serpent finally stops
biting his tail and he wakes up because his dad
is like, yo, let's go end everything, and he rises
up out of the ocean. And this is when it
goes from like, oh, winters lasted really long and people
are fighting. This is a war that engulfs the world
to like, oh shit, it's the end of the fucking world.
A giant serpent the size of the planet has just
(25:09):
risen from the ocean, which carries with it the real
consequences you would expect from a fucking giant serpent rising
out of the ocean, which is like every body of
water trembles and it becomes completely unmanageable the seas just
like writhe essentially. And then aside from that, Fenreer wakes up,
who has been chained and imprisoned by the gods because
he's basically a giant feral dog and the gods have
(25:31):
been like turning your fucking dog Loki before he kills
the world, and Loki was like totally d I like
him like that, Like he breaks his chains and he
heads for you know, his master, so he can go
and you know, partake in the final battle. Yorminghen Deer
rises up, and the massive waves all around the world
cause havoc. And also he just like opens his mouth
and breathes out, and his like breath is poison, and
(25:52):
he poisons the sea and the sky by doing just that.
So the world's pretty fucking.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
And this is this is post three Winters.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Yes, this is like near the end of the third Winter,
like he just wakes up and he's this is the
thing the world. Serpent isn't waking up to fucking destroy
the world. He's just waking up to go to Asgard
to participate in the final battles. He wakes up, yawns,
and fucks off, and the world is essentially doomed at
that point, Like the oceans are so fucked not just
(26:21):
in Midguard, but like all across all the realms that
there's this ship called the Naglfar. I know I'm not
saying that right, but it's a massive ship constructed entirely
from and I'm not making this up, the untrimmed nails
of the Dead, which is fucking gross. It sails because
it's finally set free from the like turbulence and all
(26:41):
the water and all the realms from the underworld with
Loki at the helm, and it's captained by herm Hrym,
who's the leader of the Frost Giants, and it's filled
with an army of the Giants and has all the
Loki's followers. It has the armies of Hella, which are
all of those who died the Shame Death and didn't
make it to Valhalla, okay, and it has fen Reer
(27:03):
and yorminggen Deer is alongside, like let's fucking go, and
they're all heading to Asgard. They're like, let's go fucking
take this down. And then at the same time, this
dude called Serd wakes up. Curder is definitely in Thor Ragnarok,
and he's depicted pretty fucking well. He's he's a fire
giant and he wakes up. He's like, it's time to
(27:25):
rig fucking wreck the world in all creation. And here's
a line I really like from the legend. And this
isn't a direct translation, it's just a recap, but it's
it's pretty cool. It says quote his sword blazes brighter
than the sun, and wherever his footsteps fall the landing
knights behind him trails an army of fire giants eager
to scorch the heavens.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
And he walks there and every time he steps he
basically creates more fire giants that are following him. And
they don't go with Loki. They walk the whole way
and they get to the rainbow bridge, not the one
that your pets cross when they die. I also don't
know why people call it the one to get to
the one to get to ask guard. He and his
army are so heavy the fucking rainbow bridge shatters, just
(28:07):
sh They still make it there somehow, but they break
the rainbow bridge. And on the way, of course, Heimdahl,
who we can all pictures in your cell with golden eyes,
which is like a different hot yep, which it wouldn't
have been hard for them to do for Paring and
the fucking Wheel of Time series because it's a pretty
basic fucking contact. You could just buy a dude to
make his eyes look good. Anyways, he's like, oh fuck,
(28:27):
and he blows gyall horn, which has the word horn
in it, which he's basically been carrying with him forever
because he's the dude who sees everything happening in all
of the nights. It is the warning. If you hear
this horn blow, it means this is the end. It's
like if you're at the Knight's Watch and you hear
the third blow of the horn, that means like white
Walker's are here. Like everyone's been waiting to hear this sound,
(28:47):
and when they hear it, they're like, oh fuck. Like
the world tree Urgaseel or however you pronounce it. Its
roots literally shake just from the sound of the horn
being blown. And that is the thing that not all,
not only have the gods been woken up by the
rooster crowing, like this is them getting out of bed
and putting on their armor and picking up their weapons,
like yeah, it's time to go to the final battle.
And they have a bunch of people on their side
(29:08):
as well, aside from all the gods that you know
in love like Odin and Thor all the other dudes
who are players in the Norse mythology, they fucking are
ready to roll. And they also bring with them all
the heroes who died valiantly in battle from Valhalla, so
you don't even get to rest.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Wait, so okay, they can pull their dead warriors.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Well that's what hell Loki did. They took all the
shamed warriors who didn't die honorable deaths, and they're like,
we're bringing them. So the gods like, hey, you guys
that died honorable deaths, Like, I know, we said you're
gonna go to Valhalla to drink beer and fuck bitches,
but like, do you want to die again? And they're
like yeah, sure, why not. And so they all roll
out and they're not going to have this fight in
like the city of Asgard, like you've seen in Thor.
(29:47):
They go to a completely different location which I have
in my script, and they'll give you the name of.
At one point, they meet at the plane of Vigrid,
which I had in the next bullet point, because I
really just plan this out super well, and I'm very
happy that my script is flowing like that it is
in Asgard's realm because Earth or Midguard would not be
able to handle the conflict of the gods. And the
(30:07):
battle starts and they just fucking clash, these endless lines
of just like two different armies intent on murdering one another.
They collide, and when the battle starts, Odin is like, yo,
watch me kill Loki's dog, and he goes after fenriar oh,
and he runs over and Fendrier fucking eats him just chop.
Odin dies like right away. And I thought he was
(30:29):
supposed to be super strong, but I mean he is,
but Fenrier is the creature that's destined to kill Odin,
and he does. And Thor is like, I'm gonna help,
and he's like, well, you know, what, I'm gonna go
fight a snake that's the size of a fucking planet.
And Thor starts fighting Yrmingen Deer, which is something that
you talked about in the previous episode, and Vadar vid Ar,
another son of Odin, is like, I guess then, I'm
(30:50):
the one who will avenge Dad. You fucking dick ahead,
and he's like not happy with Thor, and he goes
and he fights Fenrier and he does really well, and
in the end he takes Fenriar and he basically puts
his foot on his bottom jaw and his hands on
his oulder jaw, and he rips his fucking head wide open,
and then he stabs him in his heart and that's
how Fenriar dies. The dog that follows okay, and so
(31:11):
that's how Odin is avenged by his son, fen Rear,
by Odin's son, Yeah, by Odin's son, which is, you know,
horrific if you really love dogs, but realistically, like this
is a super evil dog. Though's probably a Nazi to
so you know, not have to feel too bad. Thor
fights Yrmagander and the battle like crazy all over asgard
he is also trying to protect Midguard because he's, you know,
(31:33):
upset that it's pretty fucked and down there. Yeah, it's
because Natalie Portman, Princess Amidala is down there. No Senator Almidala.
But realistically he I shouldn't say realistically, none of this
shit is realistic. But he fights the world serpents. It's
a great battle. He hits him enough with his hammer
(31:54):
that he does kill him. And after the battle's over
he has been filled with and covered with poison so
much that he's able to take nine steps before dying.
Oh sad, that's authoritize. Meanwhile, on Earth, it's not like
everything's peachy keen jelly being down there because everything super fucked.
The sky and the seas have been poisoned. The war
just continues to rage on because everyone's panicking, like every
(32:15):
corner of the globe essentially is in conflict.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Okay, so the world's had a three year winter? Correct
does when it comes to this nor Norse mythology and
things like that, is that something like how they describe
the ice age, like this three year winter is the
ice age that the Earth goes through.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
I don't think Norse mythology really described the ice age
too much. I think it's just meant to represent like
the death of all like nature and how crazy it
would drive people to have all things be so scarce
and dark and harsh.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Okay, so it's not based on like events like to
kind of describe a reason why certain things happen, like
why the ice age happened, or why this happened.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
I think they just understand as a people because this
is a myth that goes back like a thousand years
that like winter is a time that's very harsh, especially
where they're from, and it's a time where people and
things die, and they're saying, like, you know, would be
the end of the world, a winter that lasts three years,
like you wouldn't be able to survive that, versus them
trying to describe like some historical event like an ice age.
(33:19):
This is more than like based off of their culture
stating like this is the worst thing that could happen.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
I just think it's interesting that they would come up
with this story, you know, and it's a quote unquote
story of what is it supposed to be real or
is it supposed to I mean, it's.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Like it's their religion, bro, Like this is what they
thought was going to happen at the end of the world,
so it is very real to them. I don't know
who made this up. I don't know who the person was.
It like to side, like, yeah, make the winter three years,
that's really good, So it's you know, it is what
it is. I don't know the origin of why they
chose winter or why they chose out how long it is,
but to me it makes sense that it's like it's
(33:57):
the season where everything dies into them. Three years would
be a substantial amount of time because like resources would
run super thin and people would kill each other for sure.
So jumping back into it though, although Loki, Friender and
Yorming and Deer are big players in Ragnarok, the main
dude that's gonna fuck shut up I mentioned was Surta
is the one who like brings about the actual end.
(34:19):
He's like his sword and his flames are essentially what
burns all creation out. And there's another god named Frey
or Freyer. There's always like an r at the end
of different stuff, but there's a lot of places that
call him just Frey and he steps up and he's
not an Odin son. He's a different god and he's
just like, well, someone has to fucking fight this dude,
So I guess it's gonna be me. And he is
the god normally of fertility, and if you see like
(34:42):
statues of him, it's like this, like dude crouching down
wearing a crown. He is just a giant rock hard
dick what Like his statues are fucking cool. He's also
do it fertility god. Yeah, I'm gonna put him right
on our fucking headboard. He's also associated with peace, prosperity,
fair weather, and good harvest, all good things, basically all
(35:05):
the boners of nature. So side note, yeah, similar, not
as hot. Side note, long story short on Frey. There's
so much stuff on this specific god. He's a really
good dude. And he had a messenger who wanted to
go to a different realm and essentially, if I'm remembering
this correctly, get laid and he's like, hey, can you
(35:28):
give me your horse and your sword? And his sword
is like super fucking dope. It can fight on its own,
like it'll fight the bad guys by itself, and in
his hands it's like one of the most unstoppable weapons
in Norse mythology. He's like, take my sword, go smash,
and he never gets his sword back. And it's very
relevant because this dude is like, I'm gonna fight Soirda
and he's like looking at Scabber like fuck, hope that
(35:51):
dude got laid because he has to fight him without
his sword. So he does, and they have this epic
fucking battle and despite trying super hard, he does die.
Kill sad negative ten Aura bad vibes, So okay.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Adam doesn't even know what any of these mean.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Ten Aura is pretty straightforward bad vibes. Even more so,
keep in mind I'm giving you the big players here.
There's endless hordes of dead, disgraced, evil people along with
the entire pantheon, the gods when it comes to Norse
mythology who are participating in this, and all the valiant warriors.
They're all there, all the good guys. They're all murdering
each other on the plains of Vigrid until it's a
(36:30):
wasteland of blood and death.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Is it blasphemous of you to call it a pantheon.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
No, the pantheon just literally means a group of gods.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
But it's from the Greek. It's from because it's Greek
and you're talking about Norse and they.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Literally refer to themselves as the Pantheon because that's what
the word meant. So I want to get free his due,
by the way, like I didn't just talk about how
this guy has a rock hard dick, which I assume
is what he fought Surterer with since he didn't have
a sword, or maybe he swung around his balls of
steal and beat his house with it. But like Surder
and Freer are supposed to kill each other, so even
(37:02):
though he dies first, he Fuckster up enough where he's
going to die after the battle, but he survives their combat.
So Curter basically turns around, looks at the wasteland that
is the battle, feelings like I came here to do
a fucking job, and I'm gonna do it. So you
can picture that scene from thor Ragnarok if you want,
where he plunges his sword into Asgard and the entire
(37:23):
fucking thing explodes. He doesn't just do that. He basically
covers all of Asgard and Midguard in his fires and flames,
and he probably looked over at Midguard and saw a
planet filled with squabbling mortals who live such short, pointless
lives and thoughts to himself. Fuck them kids. Oh, he's
totally cool with getting rid of them. Stop after loses
(37:47):
the battle.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
You should never tell children's stories. You're the worst. You
are the ass.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
This episode is marked for explicit folks. For everyone E
on podcasting means explicit. Oh God, okay, because the end
of the fight between him and Freyre is basically like
the end of all things. Uh. He spreads his flames
(38:13):
at the same time the sun goes black and basically
goes out, which would be a horrifying thing to see.
The Earth literally sinks into the sea, so every like
land mass collapses into the ocean.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
Okay. I was gonna be like, how does the Earth
sink into this? Make sense? Got it?
Speaker 2 (38:29):
The stars vanish, the fires cause steam to rise from
the oceans, and like untold amounts as the Earth essentially
goes under. I mean Earth is like the literal land
masses and the flames before they get snuffed out, touched
the heavens, creation itself.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
On Earth drowns, and that is how we lost Atlantis.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Yeah, very similar. Sure, And as I was reading that,
I was like, fuck, yes, that's the stuff I'm talking about, Like,
what but Ragnarok, here's the thing. Ragnarok isn't just about
the end of the world and the gods end of
all living things. It's actually about rebirth as well, which
I forgot about. Some gods do return from hell, the person,
(39:13):
placer thing whatever. They get to come back and they
get to run the show. What's super interesting is the
two gods that basically get to be in charge are
Bolder and Hoder. We basically figure things out and holds
like you good, I'm blind right, and Boulders like shit happens, bro,
I get it. It's a bummer. They get to come
back and they get to be the person that the
(39:34):
two people who are like in charge of creation.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
After that, that's cool.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
So I was like, oh dope, like they made up.
And then there's two humans Lift l If and Lift Pricier,
which translates to roughly Life and Life's Lover. A man
and a woman who have been hiding out in a
place called Hotommi's Holt, which is like a forest where
somehow they're able to survive the entire thing. And when
(39:59):
it's over, the earth rises back out of the sea.
It's cleansed and lush and green and teeming with life again,
but not humanity. It's just these two humans lift and
lift procre very, Adam and Eve. They basically look at
each other, and the gods look at them, and everyone
thinks the same thing, like get to fucking like. The
literal translation, okay from the legend of Ragnarok is from
(40:23):
them generations will spring.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
And they don't procreate with the gods anymore.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
There's nothing in there about it. This is the end
of the thing I'm talking to you about. You can
ask the person who wrote it, like a thousand years old.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Oh well, I'm just wondering because there's in Greek mythology,
at least, there's a lot of.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
Demos that that happens a lot in Norse mythology too.
I'm telling you about, like Ragnarok, what happens when Ragnarok's over.
It doesn't say, ps, the gods fucked their kids. So
Ragnarok isn't just an end of the world legend or myth.
It's it's literally a story of rebirth. It is a
very bloody and fiery ending caused by shitty, awful people
and gods doing a lot of shitty and awful things,
(41:02):
And it has a lot of parallels to parts of
other religions. Like you've mentioned several times, things that rely
to you reminded you either of like Christianity specifically, or
of like you know, cultural reference. It's like Game of
Thrones or whatever. But like a lot of those are
like tied to different pieces of different religions. And although
the ending is one of like a cyclical nature of
life and death and how they flow into one another,
(41:24):
my favorite part is still where everyone dies, just because
it's like who'll let it end? And if you're like me,
it does help to ignore the connection of a snake
biting its tail wrapped around the world to the circular
nature of creation, Like if you think about it enough,
like yorming and dear is really just doing his purpose.
It's not really his fault, right, so you know, it's
not necessarily the worst thing in the world. That hope,
(41:46):
thing that you can really tie into this story really is,
you know, awful, it's the worst.
Speaker 1 (41:51):
I mean, there's a lot of lore and a lot
of stuff throughout history. That's just the world being destroyed,
born again, to destroyed, born again, destroyed, born, and that's
just the tale of everything. Right, the world went through
an ice age, destroyed and like.
Speaker 2 (42:06):
You mentioned why did the gods fuck the eventual humans
that would populate the earth, which I guess is the
way you want me to say that because you're weird
like you can totally assume that the new pantheon of
gods and those generations born from Lyft and Lift Purceer
probably will eventually follow the same path and make the
same mistakes, causing another cataclysmic destruction of existence and rebirth.
(42:28):
That part is pretty metal as fuck. For being honest,
I do think the point of this particular telling of
the end of creation is that it isn't the end,
and that every cycle which always comes back, no matter
how endless or maddening or like pointless it may seem,
is to give you a chance to do it different
every time and to be better and to finally get
(42:50):
it right, which is what I take from it, and
when I've always sort of taken from it, and if
it doesn't work, you get to end at all in
fire and blood, which is pretty fucking cool.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
I'm just thinking an asteroid came, took out all the dinosaurs,
fire and blood, we came back again, endless winter, and uh,
Pigley could be the next thing. It's crossed.
Speaker 2 (43:14):
No, that's only a city killer.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
Oh, it's only a city kill. Okay. I totally don't
remember the details of that.
Speaker 2 (43:20):
Doesn't remember anything about my topics.
Speaker 1 (43:23):
But you never know. I don't know. Things could happen.
The world has has.
Speaker 2 (43:28):
All I know is of a fucking snake the size
of the world rose out of the ocean. I'd be like,
called it, this is the end of everything. But that's
pretty fucking cool. That's a really big snake. I'm glad
I got to see it.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
Well, when we see a lot of the strange creatures
and the strange stuff that kind of washes up on shore,
or that you see once in a blue moon, like
that random ancient shark that got recorded a few years back.
Like when stuff like that happens, I'm just flattery astid.
There has to be some crazy thing at the bottom
(44:02):
of the ocean, you know that we just haven't seen yet.
Speaker 2 (44:04):
I mean, the further deep down you get, I guarantee
you there's just more and more bizarre sh Yeah, for sure, fascinating.
So absolutely, Yeah, that's where Yorming and deer lives. And
maybe we'll introduce some self to us one day. But
in the meantime that my spook of friends is Ragnarak.
Speaker 1 (44:20):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
I hope you enjoyed it. I would really like to
would really fuck you. That was awesome. I would really
like to cover revelations like the Christian end. I've thought
about it a lot. The problem is that it's not
just about telling people like, don't correct my telling of
the story, like so many people take it so fucking seriously,
(44:42):
like I could get it perfectly right and people are
still going to be crazy.
Speaker 3 (44:45):
I mean.
Speaker 1 (44:47):
The problem with covering anything like that is it's been
retold so many times and changed so many times that
one person could say.
Speaker 2 (44:56):
That I can literally tell you what revelation said, like
the rich language it was written, and so many people.
Speaker 1 (45:01):
Would be like, you're fucking because they whoever would say
that is because they've grown up being.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
So rigid and they get so upset if they hear
anything that doesn't run one thousand percent exactly true to
what they've been told. It's very hard to cover stuff
like that, which is why we don't, which is why
I typically don't. I really want to, like, this is
the thing, I know what happened, right, I would tell
folks that what I have to shit.
