Tips are never expected, but are always appreciated. After all, trivia is more fun when beer money is involved! ~ Welcome to Lock Down Trivia, the "unlock your brain" podcast quiz show! In this game, contestants answer questions from their self-submitted expert trivia categories, but there's a catch: questions are hidden behind locks that require increasing amounts of keys! To unlock a question and earn more points, they'll have to build streaks of correct answers to accumulate enough keys to open that lock. Each category has five questions: one that is unlocked, one that requires one key, one that requires two keys, one that requires three keys, and one that requires four keys. If they're having trouble building up a streak or want to boost the streak they already have going, they have five bonus questions available to play with. In this unique trivia podcast game, the host reflects on the writing of the questions and shares what was learned in the process with the listener. Not only will you enjoy a great trivia game, but you will get insights into writing professional trivia questions. As the game goes along, more will be learned than just the answers to the questions. Will the player "unlock their brains?" Will you? Join us for Lock Down Trivia!

The 12 Labours of Heracles

No there are no typos in the title, that's how "Labours" is spelled in this instance and the Greek pronunciation is HERA-CLES, cause the dude was named after Hera, who was actually not his mother, far from it. Daddy Zeus did was Zeus gon' do and sexed up a mortal woman disguised as her husband, she got pregnant, Hera got pissed and Heracles was born into the Greek World with a target already on his back. Now we should preface this with a disclaimer, this ain't Walt's Hercules, I mean that movie is a banger but the real story of Heracles would be a hard NC-17 rating. The 12 Labours are pretty much the story of Heracles' life, all his myths and stories come from what happened while he was crossing things off his task list. But why was he doing these mythological honey-do's instead of chillin' on Olympus? Well that all comes back to Hera and the instant she destroyed his life and set a path before him to possible redemption. Alright enough talk let's get into it.... Support the show

In this captivating episode of Mythlok, we delve into the myth of Aeolus, the legendary Keeper of the Winds in Greek mythology. As the master of one of nature's most unpredictable forces, Aeolus held a unique position among gods and mortals alike. Entrusted by Zeus to control the chaotic gusts that stirred seas and skies, Aeolus became both a guardian of calm and a harbinger of storms. His story, most famously told in The Odyssey, shows just how pivotal his role was in guiding — or misguiding — the fate of mortals.Host Nitten Nair takes you through Aeolus's complex family lineage, his symbolic connection to nature, and his reimagining in modern literature, science, and media. From being labeled a “windbag” in James Joyce's Ulysses to lending his name to scientific terms like “Aeolian processes,” Aeolus continues to swirl through our collective consciousness. His children founded dynasties, his winds shaped destinies, and his mythology blurred the line between human wisdom and divine power.Whether as a mortal king, divine figure, or metaphor for humanity's struggle with the elements, Aeolus remains a powerful symbol of control, chaos, and the eternal dance between order and nature. Join us as we uncover the legend, the legacy, and the lingering questions surrounding this ancient master of the winds. This episode will leave you with a fresh perspective on how mythology still influences the world around us — from sand dunes to starlight.

What if the Bible left out one of the most explosive stories of all time? In this gripping introduction to The Book of Enoch, we explore the ancient text that reveals the fall of the Watchers—heavenly beings who descended to Earth, broke divine law, and unleashed chaos by mating with human women. The result? The Nephilim—a race of giants said to have walked the Earth before the flood. Join us as we uncover why this book was banned from the Bible, how it connects to Genesis 6, and what it reveals about a cosmic war that may still be influencing humanity today. We also dive into the mysterious figure of Enoch himself—great-grandfather of Noah—who was taken by God and shown visions of heaven, judgment, and things humanity was never meant to see. Could the story of the Watchers explain ancient mythologies, UFOs, or even hidden truths about our origins? This is the beginning of a mind-bending series you won't want to miss.

Today, we present a wild and flowering conversation between two poets, writers, philosophers, and theobiologians Bayo Akomalofe and Sophie Strand. This conversation is from a 2022 SAND Community Gathering. To hear the full conversation with Q&A from the live webinar you can view it here (with SAND Membership). In Greek Mythology, the Titan Kronos eats an indigestible stone and vomits up the new Olympic pantheon of gods. In our current time, people planted in stratigraphic layers of shared trauma find themselves uniquely ill – physically and mentally. We are unable to digest food and unable to digest violence. What if indigestion – practical and mythical – was a sign that a new world was threatening to be born? The very basis of our nucleated cells is an ancient botched bacterial cannibalism. What if our inability to digest certain injustices was an invitation to vomit up a new pantheon? And in an age when we are all threaded through with microplastics and blood pressure stabilizers, what does it mean to start to physically grow into new shapes around incursions we cannot properly assimilate or expel? Bayo Akomolafe (Ph.D.), rooted with the Yoruba people in a more-than-human world, is the father to Alethea and Kyah, the grateful life-partner to Ije, son and brother. A widely celebrated international speaker, posthumanist thinker, poet, teacher, public intellectual, essayist, and author of two books, These Wilds Beyond our Fences: Letters to My Daughter on Humanity's Search for Home (North Atlantic Books) and We Will Tell our Own Story: The Lions of Africa Speak, Bayo Akomolafe is the Founder of The Emergence Network and host of the online postactivist course, ‘We Will Dance with Mountains'. He currently lectures at Pacifica Graduate Institute, California and University of Vermont, Burlington, Vermont. He sits on the Board of many organizations including Science and Non-Duality (US) and Ancient Futures (Australia). In July 2022, Dr. Akomolafe was appointed the inaugural Global Senior Fellow of University of California's (Berkeley) Othering and Belonging Institute. He has also been appointed Senior Fellow for The New Institute in Hamburg, Germany. He is the recipient of the New Thought Leadership Award 2021 and the Excellence in Ethnocultural Psychotherapy Award by the African Mental Health Summit 2022. Sophie Strand is a writer based in the Hudson Valley who focuses on the intersection of spirituality, storytelling, and ecology. Yet it would probably be more authentic to call her a neo-troubadour animist with a propensity to spin yarns that inevitably turn into love stories. Give her a salamander and a stone and she'll write you a love story. Sophie was raised by house cats, puff balls, possums, raccoons, and an opinionated, crippled goose. She believes strongly that all thinking happens interstitially – between beings, ideas, differences, mythical gradients. She is the author of The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred Masculine and The Madonna Secret. She is also finishing a collection of essays about navigating an incurable genetic disease and early trauma through ecological storytelling.

While Gene did have advanced Alzheimer's disease, his the autopsy of his wife, Betsy Arakawa shows that she died of Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome. This is a rare, but potentially deadly, illness spread by the droppings, urine, or saliva of rodents, mainly deer mice here in America. While in other parts of the world such as Europe and Asia, it results in kidney problems and failure, the strain typically found in the Americas causes pulmonary/respiratory distress and higher rates of death as a result.

So where could Betsy Arakawa have contracted this illness? Let's discuss and avoid unhealthy assumptions, shall we? Just FYI, I wanted to discuss more than one zoonotic disease this episode, but Adam has been holding me accountable to not overdoing it.
