MOTW Season Two Announcement!

The Devil in Quebec

Today we visit the French-Canadian province of Quebec to tell the tales of the many times they’ve been host to a most malicious visitor: the devil. We explore how the prince of evil is continually thwarted in his plans by the plucky French underdogs. How do they manage to stand in the face of such immense evil? What nefarious plans does the devil have in store? Let’s get our hooves in gear! The songs featured are rendition of old Quebec folk- fiddle tunes from Pascal Gemme’s Trad Quebec studio:  « Le gigue du démon » : https://www.patreon.com/posts/la-gigue-du-43035268 [https://www.patreon.com/posts/la-gigue-du-43035268] « Réel de l’ile de d’Orleans » : https://www.patreon.com/posts/reel-de-lile-de-59985519 [https://www.patreon.com/posts/reel-de-lile-de-59985519] « Reel du Nord- Alfred Montmarquette » : https://www.patreon.com/posts/reel-du-nord-42715653 [https://www.patreon.com/posts/reel-du-nord-42715653] You can find their work and support them on their Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/tradquebecstudio [https://www.patreon.com/tradquebecstudio] This episode contains sound effects from freesound.org posted for either commercial attribution or non-commercial attribution: S: Horse Whinny, Close, A.wav by InspectorJ | License: Attribution 4.0 S: Church Bells, Approaching, A.wav by InspectorJ | License: Attribution 4.0 S: FIREBurn_Languid fireplace.Crack.Roar Of Flame_EM_(2lrs).wav by newlocknew | License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0 S: Wind Through Trees 3b by spoonbender | License: Attribution 4.0 S: Laugh.wav by owly-bee | License: Attribution 3.0 S: demonic chant drone.wav by a_guy_1 | License: Attribution 4.0 S: Shaking a Table by alirabiei | License: Attribution 4.0 S: Squeaky Chair by Aesterial-Arts | License: Attribution 4.0 S: Pickaxe Striking Rock.wav by Benboncan | License: Attribution 4.0 All other sounds are under creative commons or created by me.

Big Joe Mufferaw

Today we sit in a rocking chair by a roaring fire and spin yarns about Joe Mufferaw, the Canadian lumberjack-turned folk hero. We explore how a small-town hero transformed into a larger-than-life figure that reshaped the landscape with his adventures through the power of story. Is there anything big Joe can’t do? Who is the man behind the stories? Let’s chop to it!
