62: BREAKING DAWN | Hanan, the Tagalog Goddess of the DawnIt's a new day, a new episode, and finally time to talk about Hanan, the long-overdue Tagalog goddess of dawn! She's been there all along, ushering in the sunrise, bringing in the harvest, and very recently being recruited as the unofficial goddess of the New Year. But why do we know so little about her?Join us as we uncover Hanan's origins, from her celestial family (yes, she's sisters with Mayari and Tala) to her often-overlooked role in Philippine mythology. We take a deep dive into the myth where she blinds the Bakunawa in a cosmic battle to save the moon, a tale that somehow feels like The Nutcracker meets True Blood. We also discuss how modern Filipinos have unofficially assigned her the job of goddess of fresh starts, why her PR team (if she had one) is seriously slacking, and how this forgotten dawn deity deserves a Sailor Moon-style transformation sequence (artists, we need you on this). ✨ Start your day with us, a quiz, and a whole lot of mythological nerding out.—The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

Humanity has long searched beyond the corporeal to find answers to life's big questions. As part of this, there has always been a place for “gods” in all civilizations. From the omnipotent Zeus to Thor the Thunder God to current "big religions' gods" to the top pagan deities, gods have played a huge role in creating/guiding/forming life's overall path. Yet, yet, there are also many gods who have far narrower remits. The goddess of sewers. The god of intoxication. The god of excuses. Etc.  These gods punch way above their weight levels and turn obscure roles into major parts of people's lives. Jon and Kurt examine a few of these gods and opine on their influences. Are you there God? It's me Margaret….

This episode dives deep into the curious, quirky, and fascinating origins behind the names of the 16 cities of Manila.

57: EMPIRE STATE OF MIND | The Majapahit Empire: Southeast Asia's Pre-colonial Superpower We do something a little different in this episode which is more history lesson than folklore storytelling.  We transport you back to the days when the Majapahit Empire ruled the seas of Southeast Asia. From its mystical origins in 1293 to its dramatic decline in 1527 – right when the Spanish arrived – we uncover how this Javanese powerhouse stretched its influence from Sumatra to New Guinea, commanding both respect and awe across the region. Join us as we sail through tales of maritime mastery, intricate trade networks, and the empire's unique cocktail of Hindu, Buddhist, and indigenous beliefs – many of which will sound very familiar!  Dive deep into the spiritual fabric of Majapahit society—where animistic rituals intertwined with royal decrees and the sacred ceremonies defined communal life. We'll explore how these ancient practices continue to echo throughout Indonesian culture today.  And wait til the end for myth from the Majapahit Empire that rivals the Disney tales of yesteryear – hello representation please. — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

56: GOLD RUSH | The Tallano Gold Myth, Part 2 Not ALL the glitters is gold! This is the 2nd part of the Tallano Gold Myth story, which purported that the Philippines was ‘owned' by the clan that ruled an ancestral Maharlika kingdom, and left hundreds of thousands of tons of gold hidden away for the Filipino people. In part 2, we cover how the strange conspiracy theory has evolved in the modern times: how it affected recent presidential elections, and how multiple individuals have since stepped forward and claimed to be the long-lost heirs of this immense kingdom, including, of course, all that gold.  Get ready for wild stories involving Rizal's supposed hidden identity, UFO cults and investment advice from aliens, squatting syndicates, and the potential existence of United Nations Seven-Star Governor Generals?!

55: FOOL'S GOLD | The Tallano Gold Myth, Part 1 This gold rush is a WILD one! In this episode, we talk about one of the conspiracy theories that rocked the imagination of Filipinos for years–most especially in the last Presidential election. Have you heard of the myth of the Tallano Gold? Hundreds of thousands of metric tons of gold that are supposedly owned by an old royal family that “legally owns” the Philippine archipelago. Join us as we parse through historical documents, take a journey through Asia, the Vatican, and… outer space? What does a UFO cult have to do with the ancestral gold of a long-lost royal family? Who really owned the Philippine Islands–and who continues to stake their claim to this day? And is there really such a thing as a Seven Star Governor General in the United Nations?

Happy three years of The Gods Must Be Crazy!

Yesterday, a “biological male” from Algeria deemed as a woman, beat Italy's Angela Carini in a Women's boxing match at the Olympics. It's yet another example surrounding the Games of Slaughter whereby the world has been turned upside down and prophetic utterances are coming to light. Even Paul in the Holy Bible speaks of how mankind loses its collective mind before we witness the wrath of God. This makes us wonder if all of what we are seeing is self-perpetuating and that the growing perversions, similar to the Roman Empire, indicate unwise decisions that lead to our downfall. The Olympics again are being perceived as a pattern of the deviancy we are embracing while turning us into gold medalists in cognitive dissonance.

Were these mystical balls of fire omens of death and destruction… or a sign pointing to hidden treasure?

Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review, where today we're diving into the quirky and thought-provoking world of "The Gods Must Be Crazy" (1980). This unique comedy film, written and directed by Jamie Uys, has captured audiences with its sharp social commentary wrapped in a series of absurd and humorous events.Set in Botswana, "The Gods Must Be Crazy", tells the story of Xi, a San Bushman who lives a peaceful, traditional life in the Kalahari Desert. His life takes a turn when a Coca-Cola bottle, thrown out of an airplane, lands near his tribe. Unfamiliar with such objects, the tribe believes it's a gift from the gods. However, as the single bottle isn't enough to share among all, it soon becomes a source of conflict—a stark contrast to their previously harmonious existence.The film follows Xi's decision to throw the troublesome bottle off the edge of the Earth, a task that leads him on an unexpected journey through modern society. Along the way, the film intersects his story with that of a clumsy biologist, a newly hired school teacher, and a band of guerrillas, weaving a rich tapestry that contrasts Xi's simplistic and content life with the complications of modern civilization."The Gods Must Be Crazy" is celebrated for its original storytelling technique, using a documentary style that adds an element of realism and satire. The film is a social commentary on the absurdity of modern civilization and consumer culture, highlighting how something as simple as a glass bottle can disrupt the harmony of a community.At its core, the film explores themes of innocence, simplicity, and the often bewildering nature of technological advances. Xi's journey is a metaphor for the invasive impact of modern civilization on traditional cultures. It questions the supposed superiority of technologically advanced societies and pokes fun at the complexities that come with 'progress.'So grab some popcorn and join us on this cinematic journey that is as hilarious as it is enlightening. "The Gods Must Be Crazy" promises not just laughs but a few eye-opening moments about the simplicity of happiness and the complexity of human desires.

51: PAST LIVES | The Eternal Love Story of Maruja Buckle up, lovebirds and skeptics! This week, we're diving into the heart-stopping saga of Maruja, a love story so strong it just couldn't stay buried. From Mars Ravelo's comic genius to cinematic reboots, Maruja's undying romance with Gabriel has been making fans swoon for over a century. We're peeling back the layers of this epic melodrama where forbidden love meets ghostly whispers. Maruja, destined for a loveless marriage, pulls the ultimate bridezilla move with a tragic twist, promising a love revival a hundred years later. Does her reincarnated self, Cristy, get a supernatural second shot at a happily ever after? Or is she just experiencing some seriously vintage déjà vu? Tune in for a spectral analysis of love, betrayal, and the kind of romantic antics that only a century of longing can brew. Let's decode why Maruja's story keeps resurrecting in Filipino pop culture—because who doesn't like a good old-fashioned love story that refuses to die? Correction:  You CAN get divorced in the Philippines but only if you are Muslim, per the Code of Muslim Personal Laws of 1977.  — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

Shawn and Aaron are traveling the world together through cinema with our Strange Imports month. Our first stop takes us to South Africa for the coke bottle cult classic 'The Gods Must Be Crazy'. The humor is intelligent at times but overall slapstick, until it gets a little too real. Oh, and it's a touch racist. Who would've thunk it with a movie made in the heart of apartheid?

50: O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? | Indarapatra & Sulayman, A Maguindanao Epic How many brothers does it take to kill five monsters & bring an entire civilization out from hiding? In our 50th episode, we cover the epic tale of Indarapatra and Sulayman, two gallant brothers whose heroics helped the people of Maguindanao (the precursor modern-day Mindanao). This set the foundation for a civilization and culture so strong they were able to flourish and put up incredible resistance across centuries of Spanish invasion. This epic story has everything: from self-driving boats, A.I.-powered weapons, surveillance trees to a literal man-made stove-top. Join us as we look to understand possible historical precursors to this tale, while trying to disentangle the epic figure of Raja Sulayman from his historical counterpart, one of the last great rulers of Old Manila. — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

49: HE WILL ROCK  YOU | Bernardo Carpio, the Lost Hero of the Tagalogs In this seismic episode, we're cracking open the legend of Bernardo Carpio, the mythical giant (or man-sized hero, depending on who you ask) whose shrugs supposedly cause earthquakes. From his tangled roots in forbidden love to his epic showdowns, Carpio's story is more than just a tale – it's a tectonic narrative of resistance and resilience. But wait, it's not all about muscle, might, and mountain-sized struggles. Dive into the pre-colonial origins and find out how an alligator ties into this earth-shattering saga. We'll also explore how this hero's tale has morphed into a symbol of freedom against oppressors, from Spanish colonizers to modern-day challenges. Are we still waiting for Carpio to break free and usher in an era of justice? Or is he just a mythic reminder to keep fighting the good fight? Buckle up for a mythological adventure that's going to rock your world – hopefully only metaphorically. — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

47: MARRY MY DEAD BODY | Ghost Marriage Practices Around the World We've all heard stories of love living on after death, but is it possible for love to BEGIN after death? In this episode, we veer slightly off the beaten path and explore the little-known practice of Ghost Marriage. Finding its roots in ancient China and India, you would be surprised to learn that the practice still lives on in various forms to this day: in provinces in rural China and India and in Chinese diaspora communities around the world.  How exactly can a marriage take place when both parties are no longer living? How does one go about finding a match in the afterlife? How can a practice meant to ensure the happiness of departed loved ones lead to greed, grave-robbery, and even murder? — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

46: UNDER THE SEA | Magwayen, the Hiligaynon Goddess of the Underworld and of the Sea Talk about a career shift!  How does a Goddess who co-created humanity (the first ever collab) end up being a psychopomp and ruler of the underworld?  What in pre-colonial Visayan belief would make you end up in the “good place,” and what do crocodiles have to do with it? In this episode, we learn about Magwayen's quite unexpected journey, her family, the traditions of the pre-colonial Visayans, dragon battles, and her magical shells.  We also dive into (pun intended) Magwayen's depictions in modern day and how she still continues to inspire from the depths of the underworld and sea.  — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

In this episode, we make our first foray into the deep and rich mythology of the Bagobo people. In another installment of our Walang Kamatayang Mini-Season, we cover Mebuyan, the Goddess of Death, and Chief of the Bagobo underworld.

44: NOT TODAY, SITAN | Sitan, The Tagalog God of Death in Philippine Folklore At the moment of death, where did the pre-colonial Tagalogs think they would go, who would decide where they would go, what kind of reptilian psychopomp would ferry them there, and who will rule in their village of rest (or grief)?   These and many other questions will be answered in this week's episode.  This October, we're covering the different beings and entities representing Death in Philippine mythology, folklore, and urban legends. In this second episode, we're covering the Sitan, the Tagalog god of death, and his agents. Join us as we explore the musical pratices around our favorite Tagalog death holiday, Undas, find out why you should be wary of mysterious fires below your house (or any fire, actually), and discover why a happy marriage could just make you a target from a malicious demon. Also, learn the not-so-direct path of how how Sitan came to the Philippines, by way of trade, conquest, and the value of a really good story.  — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

In this first episode, we're covering the mysterious entity known only as the Kumakatok.  From the war-ravaged streets of Old Manila in the 1940s, mysterious ‘cult-killings' in the 80's, and the strange paranormal surveillance sightings during the COVID lock-downs, these mysterious beings haunt the doorways of prospective victims, warning them of their terrible, unavoidable fate.  Join us as we explore the lore of the Death Knock beings in the Philippines, learn of modern-day sightings, and the strange and eerily-similar beliefs that exist in Celtic, African, Balinese and Native-American mythologies. — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds and semi-professional gossips.

As we gear up for the spooky season, we're revisiting some of our favorite episodes. Here's one where we learn about the death & burial practices of our pre-colonial ancestors in Visayas and Mindanao, and how your social class could impact your fate after death. Enjoy! --- EPISODE 13: MUMMY MIA: HERE WE GO AGAIN (PART 2) | Death, Burial and the Afterlife in Pre-Colonial Philippines  As we close-out the series on this fascinating topic (for now), we move further south and explore the death & burial practices of our pre-colonial ancestors in Visayas and Mindanao. In this episode we learn how burial practices differed by social class. Find out the perks and perils of being a slave in the pre-hispanic era, rituals one underwent to try and ‘save' the dead, and just what price a tribe was willing to pay to send off their Datu properly. We also learn about the early origins of the crying ladies, and the strange things they'd have to include in their eulogies for the deceased.

As we gear up for the spooky season, we're revisiting some of our favorite episodes. Here's one where we learn about the Philippine's own 'The Mummy Returns', the beliefs behind the manunggul jars and why the hanging coffins of Sagada exist. Enjoy! --- In this episode (Part 1 of 2!) we jump back in time and learn about how our pre-colonial ancestors practiced their beliefs around death, burial and the afterlife.  From the famous manunggul jars of Palawan to the hanging coffins of Sagada, we explore the stories that shaped these ancient practices–including a well-known creation myth that actually talks about the first instance of death and resurrection. We also talk about: just how much music was there in the 90s, how long should you wait until you move on from a relationship, and–to go back to topic–the Philippine's own real-life version of “The Mummy Returns.” --- The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology.
