Episode 121: The Aztec Suns
This season we’re doing ‘Miffs-cellaneous’, where we do a variety of different myths from around the globe. We had a great time exploring the Egyptian Gods but now it’s time for a new civilisation – The Aztecs. We’ll be starting with their creation myth. It’s a fabulously intriguing tale about how we live in the 5th world to have been created...but what happened to the previous 4? Also, Matt and Dan discuss some of the few good things that have happened during 2020. Hey you! Yes you. Why don't you follow us on social media at @MiffsPodcast.

Episode 120: The Theban Gods
The eagle-eyed (Brian-eyed?) amongst you will have noticed that recently our episodes have been released fortnightly. Unfortunately this will be the case for the next few episodes due to Matt and Dan’s (Matt’s) busy work schedule. Fear not because each episode will be just as fun, professional and well researched as usual*. This weeks’ episode is uncovering some lesser known, but equally fascinating Egyptian deities - The Theban Gods. Also Matt and Dan discuss Matt’s impending Covid-19 test. *These are relative terms and should not be compared to other podcasts. Hey you! Yes you.
