When other little boys were playing sports or catching frogs or whatever,
Speaker:
00:00:06
I was in the library, reading every mythology book I could get my hands on.
Speaker:
00:00:10
It all started with Wonder Woman, then Clash of the
Speaker:
00:00:13
Titans, the good one from 1981.
Speaker:
00:00:16
And I was hooked.
Speaker:
00:00:18
What started as a childhood fascination became a lifelong obsession.
Speaker:
00:00:22
My name is Boston Blake.
Speaker:
00:00:24
And I'm the host of the Mythic podcast.
Speaker:
00:00:26
If you're listening to this trailer, there's a good chance you're already
Speaker:
00:00:30
aware of the massive catalog of mythology podcasts out there.
Speaker:
00:00:34
Well, this one is a little different.
Speaker:
00:00:36
Sure.
Speaker:
00:00:37
My guests and I, we geek out on our favorite myths and legends, but what's
Speaker:
00:00:41
more important is how they've impacted us and why they matter so much.
Speaker:
00:00:46
I believe that these fictional stories contain cores of truth.
Speaker:
00:00:50
That can help us live more meaningful and fulfilling lives.
Speaker:
00:00:54
And it's not all Hercules and Thor and a bunch of calcified tales carved into clay.
Speaker:
00:00:58
These archetypes live in modern media, in superheroes, in marketing and branding,
Speaker:
00:01:05
in nearly every movie and TV show.
Speaker:
00:01:07
And in our daily lives.
Speaker:
00:01:09
In Mythic, we look at all of it.
Speaker:
00:01:12
If you love stories, and sense that there's more to them than
Speaker:
00:01:16
just entertainment value, then this podcast is just for you.
Speaker:
00:01:21
I hope you'll join me as we explore the world from a mythic perspective.
