Freya: The Norse Goddess Who Could Seduce or Slay You

In this electrifying episode of Mythlok, we journey into the heart of Norse mythology to explore the legendary goddess Freya—a divine force of love, war, magic, and mystery. Often misunderstood as just a goddess of beauty, Freya is a complex powerhouse who commands both hearts and battlefields. From her enchanted necklace and her chariot pulled by cats to her mastery of seiðr and her tearful longing for her lost love, Freya embodies the wild, uncontainable spirit of the Norse pantheon. Join host Nitten Nair as we uncover Freya’s origins among the Vanir, her dramatic arrival in Asgard, her tangled love stories, and her modern-day influence in pop culture, neo-paganism, and feminist iconography. With powerful storytelling, sharp insights, and a touch of mythological gossip, this episode paints Freya in all her raw, radiant glory. 🔮 Whether you're into Viking legends, spiritual archetypes, or epic goddesses who don’t play by the rules, this is one saga you won’t want to miss.

episode Driven by Death: The Black Volga Urban Legend artwork
Driven by Death: The Black Volga Urban Legend

In this eerie and entertaining episode of Mythlok, host Nitten Nair takes you on a joyride through the twisted tale of the Black Volga — a Soviet-era urban legend that blends cold war paranoia, creepy disappearances, and a limousine that may or may not be driven by Satan himself. From the streets of Warsaw to the alleys of Kiev, sightings of a mysterious black limousine sparked fear across generations. Was it a KGB deathmobile? A bloodthirsty nun-mobile? Or just the devil's Uber? We explore real-life incidents, bizarre eyewitness accounts, and wild theories that made the Black Volga a symbol of ultimate doom on four wheels. Packed with dark humor, spine-tingling storytelling, and just the right amount of "what if?", this episode will make you think twice before hitching a ride — especially if the car is shiny, black, and comes with complimentary curtains. Hit play, buckle up, and remember — some legends don’t need monsters. Just a full tank and no license plate.

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.
