This week, we dive deep into one of the internet's most intriguing conspiracy theories: the Black Eye Club. We explore the curious pattern of celebrities, politicians, and influential figures appearing in public with prominent black eyes - particularly on the left side - and the theories surrounding what this might mean. From George W. Bush and Jay Leno to Adam Sandler and Elon Musk, we examine the extensive list of public figures who've been photographed with these mysterious injuries, along with their often unusual explanations ranging from bicycle accidents to microphone mishaps. We also discuss the potential symbolic roots of this phenomenon through ancient mythology, exploring connections to Odin's sacrifice of his eye for wisdom in Norse tales and the Eye of Horus from Egyptian lore. Finally, we look at various theories about what these black eyes might represent - from initiation rituals into elite secret societies and humiliation punishments to more sinister explanations involving adrenochrome harvesting and even alien parasites entering through the eye.

September Witchcraft - Harvest Moon, Mabon, Heather & The White Hare In this episode, I'm stepping into the autumn magic of September — a time of gathering, gratitude and transition. We begin with the Harvest Full Moon, exploring its folklore and how you can weave its abundant energy into your craft. I dive into the lore of Heather — a plant long tied to luck, protection, and threshold spaces — and share its magical properties for spellwork and ritual. We celebrate Mabon, the autumn equinox, a sabbat of balance, harvest, and honouring the turning of the wheel. To close I read the folk tale of The White Hare — a story from Dorset legend filled with mystery and enchantment. Plus, I review The Cornish Witch by Elena Collins — a time-slip novel brimming with spirits, Cornwall's landscape and the whisper of magic. Whether you're preparing your altar for Mabon, gathering herbs beneath the Harvest Moon, or simply soaking in September's shifting energy, this episode will guide you deeper into the magic of the season. Harvest Moon Tarot/Oracle Spread (5 cards — can be done with tarot, oracle, or a mix) The Harvest — What have I gathered this season? → What blessings, lessons, or abundance is ripe and ready to acknowledge. The Gratitude — What deserves my thanks right now? → Where to pour appreciation to strengthen roots. The Balance — What is seeking harmony within me? → What needs to be brought into balance at this turning point of light and dark. The Release — What must I let go of before winter? → Habits, fears, or weights that cannot come with you into the darker half of the year. The Illumination — What guidance does the Harvest Moon shine upon my path? → The wisdom or vision that lights the way ahead. Harvest Moon Journal Prompts What am I most proud of harvesting this year — in work, spirit, relationships, or self? Where in my life am I being called to pause and give gratitude? What feels “out of balance” in me right now, and how might I restore harmony? What am I ready to lay down, release, or compost before the dark months? If the Harvest Moon could whisper one message to me, what would it be? What seeds of intention do I want to carry safely through the winter, to blossom when light returns?
After a brief diversion into talking about the upcoming Wedding of the Century, the Junkies convene the Pop Culture Junkie Book Club for a discussion of the book genre reshaping the publishing business: Romantasy. This genre blends Romance and Fantasy and certainly isn't new; the Twilight series came out in the 90s and the genre reaches back even further than that. But it is undeniably hot now: Romantasy titles account for nearly half of total fiction sales. Olivia and Shauna discuss some of the most popular Romantasy works, like A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas and Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros, and discuss how Greek and Norse mythology inform the genre, as well as its variations, tropes and archetypes. Finally, the Junkies give their recommendations to start you on your journey into the realms of fantasy romance. You can watch the Pop Culture Junkie Podcast on YouTube!

Fantasy religions often feel like reskins either of ancient Greek or Norse pantheons or of the medieval Catholic church. But what more interesting choices can we make when we're building faith within an invented world? Deva Fagan joins us to explore some of the options! How your people envision deities, the afterlife, and the very bones of the universe can illuminate a lot about their overall values and how they self-mythologize their place in the world. It's not all just cosmology, either: religion can touch so many other parts of a world, from government and power structures to idiomatic language and metaphors. Religions are also things that live and change: How can cults, schisms, and syncretism not only help you create a world that feels more diverse and lived-in, but also maybe give you some plot and character hooks? [Transcript for Episode 162 -- Thank you, scribes!] Our Guest: Deva Fagan writes fantasy and science fiction for all ages. When she's not writing, she spends her time reading, doing geometry, playing video games, hiking, and drinking copious amounts of tea. She is the author of several books, including Rival Magic, Nightingale, The Mirrorwood, A Game of Noctis, and The Delta Codex. She lives in Maine with her husband and their dog.

What does it mean to be unbreakable? In this episode, we explore the heroic mindset found in myth, philosophy, and warrior tradition. Drawing from a particular story from the Viking Age, we'll uncover how ancient lessons can guide us in building resilience, honor, and strength in a modern world that seeks to weaken men. This is about more than survival, it's about becoming unbreakable.This is a deeper riff off the previous episode I did with John Michael Greer on operationalizing myth. You can listen to that one first if you need some more background on the topic, or not. This episode can stand on its own.Enjoy!Resources:The Poetic Edda, Lee Hollander The Seeds of Yggrasill, Maria KvilhaugThe Power of Myth, Joseph CampbellSupport the showGet Members Only Content when you upgrade to a premium membership on our Substack page.

Some say Donald Trump's ancestry ties him to Norse kings and even Rurik, founder of Russia's first dynasty. In recent weeks, Russian state media have pushed the idea that Trump's “Viking blood” explains his ruthless streak. But would the real Vikings have raised a flagon in his honour, or run him out of the fjord? Today on The Bunker, Chris Jones is joined by medieval historian Dr. Keith Ruiter, who specialises in the Viking age, to find out how the vikings would have dealt with a leader like Trump. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

Delphi's Ritual Theory – Why the Jury Never Heard About Brad Holder Among the most controversial elements of the Delphi case is the so-called “Odinism theory” — the claim that Abby and Libby's murders had ritualistic elements tied to Norse pagan beliefs. The crime scene reportedly featured sticks arranged in rune-like patterns on the victims' bodies. Brad Holder's name surfaced in court filings from Richard Allen's defense as one of several locals allegedly associated with Odinist imagery. His connection to the case is direct: his son dated one of the victims. Social media posts showed staged images eerily similar to the alleged crime scene arrangements, rune symbols on his hand, and a cryptic comment posted just days after the murders: “Your real ones don't judge you… They help you move the body and never speak of it again.” Despite the disturbing parallels, the state dismissed the Odinism theory as speculative, and the judge barred any mention of it in front of the jury. Holder was never charged, and the jury deciding Allen's fate never heard about the alleged ritual elements. In this episode, we examine the Odinism theory, Holder's alleged connections, and why potentially exculpatory evidence was kept out of the courtroom — raising deeper questions about whether Allen's trial was a fair search for truth or a curated story with key chapters missing. #DelphiMurders #BradHolder #Odinism #TrueCrime #JusticeForAbbyAndLibby #DelphiCase #WrongfulConviction #ColdCase #TrueCrimeCommunity #IndianaCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week's podcast looks at the Nordic deity Ran, a wrathful sea goddess that causes shipwrecks and drags fishermen down to the watery depths with her net. With her husband Aegir and her nine children of the waves, she represents the terrors of the sea--both physically and psychologically. We look at the attributes of Ran, water mythology, and flood mythology.

Send us a textWhat if we find Norse myth or Greco-Roman myth more aesthetically pleasing than Christianity? Should we believe in the pagan gods instead? Is the Bible actually good art? Is Christian theology beautiful? Do Christians find their religion beautiful just because they believe it is true? In a 1944 lecture before Oxford's Socratic Club, C.S. Lewis asks and answers these questions - and more. Jonathan and Ryan follow along as Lewis asks, and answers, the question the Socratic Club put before him: "Is theology poetry?"C.S.

Are corvids overabundant pests or are they simply survivors in landscapes we've shaped? Why do these birds seem to look at us as intently as we look at them? What can ravens teach us about intelligence that might humble our sophisticated intelligence tests? This episode explores the world of corvids, from the familiar rooks and jackdaws to the acrobatic choughs and elusive jays that call Ireland home.Dr Fionn Ó Marcaigh, author of "Encounters with Corvids," joins us to unpack the complex relationship between humans and these remarkable birds. We discuss their extraordinary intelligence, including studies showing ravens can remember and recognise individual humans, and how they've adapted to thrive alongside us while other species struggle. Fionn shares stories from his research and observations, revealing behaviours that demonstrate that these birds are always "up to something" when we encounter them in the wild.In our conversation, we tackle the thorny issue of predator control and conservation dilemmas. While corvids thrive in human-modified landscapes, ground-nesting birds face rapid declines. We also explore the mythology and folklore that has shaped our perceptions of these birds, from Celtic battle goddesses to Norse deities, and examine how cultural attitudes influence modern conservation challenges. This episode offers perspectives on living alongside intelligent wildlife in ever-changing landscapes, reminding us that sometimes the most familiar creatures hold great surprises.Subscribe to Tommy's Outdoors: Conservation and Science NewsletterSupport the Podcast and Buy Me a Coffee.Recommended Books: tommysoutdoors.com/booksMerch: tommysoutdoors.com/shopFollow Tommy's Outdoors on Bluesky, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook
Ancient legends and stories told of the Long Night have a lot in common with the Norse conception of Ragnarok, which begins with ice and ends in fire. Modern archaeology and volcanology have in turn added a tangible element to these tales, helping us understand how they came to exist in the first place.

In this Geek Freaks episode, we celebrate Spiderman Day by discussing the live-action Spider-Man films, Tom Holland's new suit, and the ongoing shoot in Glasgow. The conversation then shifts to the future of the Hulk storyline in the MCU, speculation on God of War and Wolfenstein TV adaptations, and the potential for a Star Trek “Year One” series. We dive into the legality of fan art after recent Pokémon TCG drama, and our hosts share their picks for the best movies, games, comics, and TV shows so far in 2025. Tune in for an engaging discussion that blends nostalgia with fresh perspectives, complete with listener recommendations and a sneak preview of what's coming next. Timestamped Topics Time Topic 00:00:00–00:00:21 Introduction: Celebrating Spiderman Day and upcoming topics 00:01:37–00:02:44 Live-action Spider-Man rankings; Tobey Maguire vs. Tom Holland vs. Andrew Garfield 00:04:45–00:07:31 Behind the scenes of Spider-Man filming: New suit, Tony Stark tech, and potential nostalgic callbacks 00:07:31–00:12:17 Hulk's role in the upcoming Spider-Man film and possible MCU storylines 00:15:17–00:19:09 Amazon's God of War adaptation: Norse mythology focus and game-to-TV transition 00:21:37–00:22:23 Wolfenstein TV series speculation and Amazon's track record after Fallout 00:23:32–00:31:07 Star Trek “Year One” concept and the future of Strange New Worlds 00:31:07–00:39:28 Mid-show break: Listener poll results, favorite live-action Spidey, and comic conventions 00:41:00–00:51:20 Best of 2025 so far: Movies, animated movies, video games, and comics 00:55:02–01:04:47 Legality of fan art: Pokémon TCG controversy and a deeper discussion on copyright 01:04:47–01:13:42 Recommendations: Hello Kitty's “My Melody and Kuromi” series and the wholesome Dropout show “Game Changer” 01:13:42–end Wrap up: Thanking listeners, inviting questions, and previewing the next episode Key Takeaways Live-Action Spider-Man Debate: Tobey Maguire remains a nostalgic favorite, but the hosts note that Tom Holland's portrayal captures the youthful energy of the comics. Andrew Garfield's films still deserve a watch for a fresh perspective. Spider-Man Day Preview: Filming for the new movie is underway in Glasgow and Pinewood Studios. The new suit seen in set photos may just be an early version; expect a Stark Tech upgrade later on. Hulk in the MCU: The show explores theories about bringing a “classic Hulk” back. If Bruce Banner loses control, it could set up a “Hulk vs. Punisher” scenario in the next Spider-Man film. God of War Adaptation: Amazon's series is confirmed to draw on the 2018 Norse storyline. The hosts hope to see Kratos' Greek mythology past referenced through flashbacks and deeper character development. Wolfenstein & Fallout Success: Wolfenstein could take a campy, bullet-heavy approach similar to Amazon's Fallout. The show creators hope Amazon will continue its good run of game adaptations. Star Trek Year One: A “year one” approach could explore how the Enterprise crew originally formed. The hosts support revisiting nostalgia without rehashing the original 1960s series, as long as the focus remains on character building. Fan Art and Copyright: After a Pokémon TCG card was accused of copying fan art, the discussion highlights how fan art technically violates copyright and can't be claimed if used without permission. Nintendo and Disney have strict policies, while Blizzard and Riot Games encourage fan creations. Best of 2025 (so far): The hosts rave about “Deadpool & Wolverine” and “Sinners” as standout films, with special love for “K-Pop Demon Hunters” and “Leo.” Games like “Death Stranding 2” and “Oblivion Remastered” shine, and comics such as “Sandman,” “Thing,” and “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow” capture the imagination. Wholesome Recommendations: From the adorable stop-motion Netflix series “My Melody & Kuromi” to the heartwarming “Game Changer” episode awarding $100,000, the show encourages viewers to find comfort in small joys. Quotes “It's hard not to pick Tobey Maguire, but Tom Holland plays the outnumbered kid that's right off the page.” – Frank “I always wanted a smart Hulk—but not a Hulk who refuses to smash.” – Squeaks “Amazon's adaptations are killing it. Between Fallout and what's in store for God of War, I think fans have a lot to look forward to.” – Frank “If we see Hulk, Punisher, and Spider-Man all fighting in the same film, something has to be out of control.” – Squeaks “Fandoms are passionate, but remember that fan art is technically derivative. It falls into a grey area unless the rights holder chooses to pursue it.” – Frank Call to Action Love what you hear?

Dom Ford joins Jana Byars to talk about Mytholudics: Game and Myth (DeGruyter Brill, 2025). Games create worlds made of many different elements, but also of rules, systems and structures for how we act in them. So how can we make sense of them? Mytholudics: Games and Myth lays out an approach to understanding games using theories from myth and folklore. Myth is taken here not as an object but as a process, a way of expressing meaning. It works to naturalise arbitrary constellations of signs, to connect things in meaning. Behind the phrase ‘just the way it is' is a process of mythologization that has cemented it. Mytholudics lays out how this understanding of myth works for the analysis of games. In two sections each analysing five digital games, it then shows how this approach works in practice: one through the lens of heroism and one through monstrosity. These ask questions such as what heroic mythology is constructed in Call of Duty? What do the monsters in The Witcher tell us about the game's model of the world? How does Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice weave a conflict between Norse and Pictish mythology into one between competing models of seeing mental illness? This method helps to see games and their worlds in the whole. Stories, gameplay, systems, rules, spatial configurations and art styles can all be considered together as contributing to the meaning of the game. Learn more about your ad choices.

Manasa has a strong opinion about the title of this book. It's 100% because she hasn't finished the book yet and doesn't know the full context, but shhh, don't tell her. Once again, Magnus has run into shenanigans with giants. Magnus and friends are captured by nine large giant water women, who are all daughters of Aegir. They are taken to Aegir's palace, where they discover that Blitz and Hearth are being held hostage. Magnus, Sam, and Alex use dietary restrictions to save Hearth and Blitz. They ask Aegir a lot of questions about mead, and he gives them some clues for their next task. He lets them leave, however, gives his daughters permission to attack, and once again Magnus finds himself fighting giant women. Magnus calls for help from his dad, and his grandpa, Njord, shows up. Njord has a weird thing with his feet. If Greeks are Horse Girls and Romans are Furries, the Norse are Feet Guys. Magnus learns he has to challenge Loki to a flyting, which is basically an ancient roast.

Deep beneath the waves of myth and time lies Atlantis, a lost empire of unparalleled splendor, whispered to have birthed a race of giants whose legacy endures in ancient stone and scattered lore. In *Giants of Atlantis: The Legacy of the Fallen Race*, we embark on a speculative journey into the heart of one of humanity's greatest enigmas. Were the Atlanteans towering beings of superhuman stature, as some ancient texts suggest, or are their monumental traces merely echoes of a forgotten culture? This book explores the tantalizing possibility that a race of giants once walked the earth, shaping civilizations and leaving cryptic markers in stone circles and megalithic temples. Drawing from the accounts of Plato, who described Atlantis as a naval power sunk by divine wrath, we begin with the philosophical cornerstone of the Atlantean myth. Plato's dialogues, *Timaeus* and *Critias*, paint a picture of a sophisticated society lost to catastrophe. Yet, he hints at inhabitants of extraordinary might, capable of feats that defy modern understanding. Could these be the giants of legend? The book delves into parallel accounts from Saxo Grammaticus, whose *Gesta Danorum* chronicles Norse tales of towering figures wielding godlike power, and Adam of Bremen, whose descriptions of Baltic temples suggest sacred sites built for beings of immense scale. Patrick Chouinard is an American author, alternative archaeologist, and investigative mythologist who challenges conventional narratives about humanity's remote past. A prolific writer with ten published books exploring ancient civilizations and forgotten histories, Chouinard serves as Editor-in-Chief of The New Archaeology Review, a platform for cutting-edge archaeological research. As former host and producer of Archaeology TV, he brought alternative archaeological perspectives to mainstream audiences. Beyond academia, Chouinard is a dedicated political activist who advocates for transparency in historical research and the democratization of archaeological knowledge.www.patrickchouinard.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
He's the god of mischief, the shapeshifter, the silver-tongued catalyst of chaos. But is Loki just a villain? This episode journeys into the heart of Norse mythology to unravel the complex character of the trickster god. We'll explore his most famous tales—from his clever pranks to the tragic betrayals that set Ragnarök in motion. More than just a story, we'll ask what Loki represents within us: the agent of change, the voice of uncomfortable truth, and the necessary chaos that precedes all transformation.

Chris Paul and Burning Bright dive deep into The Northman, exploring its grim aesthetic, Norse mythology, and literary roots in the legend of Amleth, the same myth that inspired Shakespeare's Hamlet. They dissect the movie's portrayal of fate, trauma, and identity, examining how the protagonist becomes a tragic vessel for vengeance after being spiritually and emotionally programmed by his father's deathbed ritual. With nods to MK Ultra, paganism, and berserker myth, the hosts question whether Amleth ever had free will or was doomed from childhood. They contrast the film's brutal worldview with Tolkien's mythic optimism and explore the cultural shift from rooted moral frameworks to modern-day spiritual voids. The discussion expands to themes of slavery, regime control, and historical parallels, culminating in a sharp critique of pagan ritualism in both ancient and modern forms. This is one of the darkest and most complex entries in the Story Hour series, unflinching in its dissection of narrative, power, and spiritual warfare.
GREENLANDEDR GHOSTS IN AMERICA: 1/4: American Vikings: How the Norse Sailed into the Lands and Imaginations of America by Martyn Whittock (Author) 1883 GREENLAND https://www.amazon.com/American-Vikings-Sailed-Imaginations-America/dp/1639365354 The geographical reach of the Norse was extraordinary. For centuries medieval sagas, first recorded in Iceland, claimed that Vikings reached North America around the year 1000. This book explores that claim, separating fact from fiction and myth from mischief, to assess the enduring legacy of this claim in America. The search for “American Vikings” connects a vast range of different areas; from the latest archaeological evidence for their actual settlement in North America to the myth-making of nineteenth-century Scandinavian pioneers in the Midwest; and from ancient adventurers to the political ideologies in the twenty-first century. It is a journey from the high seas of a millennium ago to the swirling waters and dark undercurrents of the online world of today.
