About Folklore and Skincare

We're the show that blends stories of folklore, history, science and the mystical. These are stories about lethal beauty rituals, innovative ingredients, plus plenty of rebellious and powerful women, as we unfold their legends, beauty secrets and the brilliant and sometimes downright dangerous skincare trends they took with them. Each week is different as we tell eachother a story that made us fall down the rabbit hole.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
