    Historical truths
    The authors gives historical truths through a poetic approach about the God Anansi. In which a lot of African Gods have been forgotten. Through the shackled avenue of the Atlantic slave trade. It’s so good to know that bits of the African culture and poeticism has survived .

    Wade in these waters
    I knew some of these histories, and others were new, but I like the spin that the host puts on them. The sound production lags what you find in podcasts from the same year, BUT the writing is so vivid and the narration is so clear and crisp that the combination paints an immersive picture. It's almost like an audio book, really.

    Engaging, engrossing, and interesting to learn about history and mythology at the same time through this podcast. I’m looking forward to more episodes and more work from Chad.

    Incredible Writing
    The production values can be a little uneven, but stick around for some AMAZING writing. These stories are chilling, vivid, visceral, and emotional. Absolutely worth your time.
