The host tells a variety of stories: Myths, legends, fairy tales etc. At the end of each episode a mythological creature is introduced. What sets the show apart from other folklore podcasts is the great story telling. Each story is compelling: Writing, voice and background music work hand in hand to draw listeners in. The balance between casual and serious is on point, with the occasional joke thrown in, but always with respect for the source material. Clearly lots of effort go both into research and writing of the episodes. Wrong information is few and far between and usually gets corrected either right in the next episode or in the next episode that is thematically fitting. The exception to this is the pronunciation of names, which has become kind of a running gag. Still he clearly tries and in the end the falsely pronounced names are only an indicator for the variety of stories from all over the world he tells. Now what I've said so far goes gor most of the episodes. In the early episodes he made more mistakes, for example simply not "getting" fairy tales, e.g. being flabbergasted that amimals can talk without explanation. But that's not an accurate representation if what the show is actzally like. So to get n accurate impression on what the podcast us like, I'd recommend starting with a more recent episode. Try this podcast if you're looking for a well-researched podcast on mythology and folk tales or simply like a good story.
