Myths and Muses: A Mythik Camps PodcastAuthor: Plato Learning
What stories are the inspirational Muses in your life? Many-headed monsters, ferocious fighters, scheming sorcerers, humble heroes: mythology, legends, and folklore are full of fascinating stories and vibrant characters. For thousands of years, humanity has used mythology to make sense of our own lives, express our creativity, and connect with each other. In Myths and Muses, the Mythik Camps team shares stories drawn from across many pantheons and cultures, with the hope that young demigods (and their families!) will feel inspired to explore ancient legends, modern marvels, and the heroic potential in their own lives.

Vicious Cycles Episode 3: The Hunt for the Lost Beast
Episode 3
Thursday, 4 June, 2026
Now we'll focus on the ImpossibleQuest called “The Hunt for the Lost Beast”. And right away, there are… a lot of things that could mean! What sort of beast? How did it get lost? Do we want to find it to save it or…… the opposite of saving it? We start with mythology's most famous beast hunt: the tale of the Calydonian Boar. Then we'll explore the Arthurian Questing Beast and learn about gods and spirits of the hunt as they appear in cultures across the world! Visit the World of Mythik website to learn more and to contribute your theories to our board! All stories told on Myths & Muses are original family-friendly adaptations of ancient myths and legends. Stories from ancient mythology can also sometimes deal with complicated topics for young listeners — to the mortal parents and caretakers reading this, we encourage listening along with your young demigods to help them navigate those topics as they explore these epic tales.
