Folklore has been used for generations to share stories across cultures. Each week this season Rachael and Mindy, walk the winding path of folklore. They ask how the stories we tell influence today’s culture and how we view women. From murder ballads to fairytales, we discuss the power these stories have over us all. It won’t be just sad but maybe, just maybe, also uplifting.

Thor: The Lay of Thrym

This week, it's the thunder god and Thursday namesake: Thor. This story is a gender bending one, Thor has to dress up as Freya and pretend to marry someone to get his ""hammer"" back (someone queue Freud). A whole ox and several barrels of ale later, and Thor is still rocking his wedding dress. We have so. many. thoughts. Luckily! we have the wonderful Shu Matsuo Post (@shumatsuopost) author of I Took Her Name to discuss this one with us.

The non-profit pairing this week is Planned Parenthood (www.plannedparenthood.org). We will be making a donation, and we hope you do too.

Hosted by Rachael Marr and Mindy Scott. Audio production and music by Aaron Crossland. Researched and written by Dr. Lauren Crossland-Marr. Episode music by F. Laroque, available at flarocque.bandcamp.com.
