Good to see you, Listener. Happy Wednesday! This week (after a brief Elden RIng hiatus) the respectable gentlemen Terren and Landon pack up and head for the Himalayas. What secrets lie in these gorgeous, isolated mountains? The yeti? The Tengmo? The Migou? They're all the same thing?!? Maybe, maybe not. How about you listen and find out?

Next week, we unpack the Australian yeti. And even further down, the boys will bring on some very special guests for a very special episode! Stay tuned!

In this foot frenzied follow up to last episode, the folks go into further detail about the legend of the hairy hominid and focus in on their American depiction. This week we'll be taking a closer look at the myth of Bigfoot as he's known in the American Southwest. How the myth began, as well as how the pop culture frenzy of the Bigfoot myth spread across the world.

Yo, Listener! Contrary to Big-Brain Terren's explanation, we did in fact record the entire episode from his dusty old laptop's microphone. Bear with us, for we are but humble podcasters in a TikTok world. Am I allowed to mention TikTok in this? I dunno.

This episode is all about the more recent histories of mermaid sightings, from Christopher Columbus to the Minister of Water in Zimbabwe! Are they mermaids? Sea cows? Manatees? What the hell is the difference? Find out and more in this episode of Lore of the Folks!

See you next week for the SEASON 3 FINALE!

The folks are back after an impromptu holiday staycation! Not to worry, we still managed to retain all of our shareholders and the LOTF stock didn't dip too much. Not then, back to business...

In this installment of nonfiction lore, the folks look at how the dark ages in Europe influenced the tales of the mermaids, and what factors played into that. We also retell the original 19th century "The Little Mermaid" by Hans Christian Anderson, with a marginal 5% more disparaging of women sprinkled throughout.

Tune in next week for who knows what and be sure to like and subscribe for more juicy lore!

Listener! So good to see you!

This episode is pretty cut and dry. Terren and Landon discuss the broad history of the Mediterranean mermaid mythos, as well as complete banter on military history and the film, Sinbad. It's great fun! We can't wait to hear what you think of it! Feel free to drop a follow and show some love to the two dweebs who run this show.

Next week is all about culture, baby! Can't wait to see you there!

The folks are back with a coastal craving guaranteed to make sure the Explicit rating on our channel goes nowhere...

In this season of LOTF your 204,000 favorite white guy history podcast is taking a dip in mediterranean history, to discover the secrets and beliefs behind one of the world's most famous crypto's...
