It has been a bit of wait but Part 2 is finally here! Bellerophon and his horsey-pale, Pegasus, have defeated the Chimera, be it with a lot of help. But their story is not done yet...Obviously. There is much more to cover for our heroes in this tragic tale. We've got a quest dispensing king, aerial artillery, a mass flashing event, and much more as well.
Patrick is joined once again by Emily Bourdon & Madi Gervais from Spill the Mead podcast, and they had an absolute ball.

We're back for the second half of Season 2! Patrick has been able to set aside his extra parental duties (for a little while) to chat with the delightful Jamie Graham, host of the Jammy History podcast.
Join us for a A Little History Podcast first, as we delve into the fantastic world of Norse mythology. Laugh along as we jump into the story of Loki and the Treasures of The Gods. A story of drunken shenanigans, deceit, some unnecessary risk taking, and a competition for some amazing treasures...with a dubious winner (#justicefortheboar).

Patrick joins with fellow podcasters, Will Davis-Coleman & Patrick Courtney (Cloak & Dagger Podcast), and Jamie Graham (The Jammy History Podcast) for another movie review. The movie in our sights this time...the 2016 blockbuster, Gods of Egypt.
Join the "Little Cloak & Jam" crew as we talk mythology, bad (and pretty good) CGI, an incredibly forgiving sphinx, and much more. Oh, and the bane of Patrick's (ALH) life...the insufferable character that is, Bek.
