13: Thor's Family Needs Therapy

Summary: This week, Rachael shares a story from Norse myth about the death of Thor's brother Baldr, their mother Frigg's deadly oversharing, and, of course, everyone's favorite trickster, Loki. Oh, and let's not forget, the queen of the Medium Place underworld, Hel! And if you're familiar with her mainly as Cate Blanchett from the Marvel movie, you're in for a surprise! Turns out the original Hel wore way less eyeliner, way more corpse legs! Content Warning: Murder Audio engineering and editing provided by Aaron Crossland.
