This week on Myths and Legends, Robinhood and his friends throw a dinner party,

and we'll see that one secret trick to having guests over and actually making money.

Easy, you do it by robbing your guests. The great of this week is a Jaguar man who likes to go

shirtless and also can end the world.

This is Myths and Legends, Episode 183. Check, please.

This is a podcast where I tell stories from mythology and folklore. Some are incredibly

popular stories you'd think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories that

might be new to you, but are definitely worth listening. We are back in the Robinhood legends.

The fun thing about Robinhood is that the stories really lend themselves to this format.

He's never had a major continuity and up to a certain point, all the stories are standalone stories.

Basically, we've established Robinhood as he is in the Legends. He's a son of a noble

man driven from his home by the sheriff of Nottingham, when the man targeted Robin's father.

In the forest, he met Little John, much the Miller son, Arthur Bland, Will Scarlett,

Firetuck, and together they robbed him the callous rich and gifted the needy. We introduced

Maid Marion a few episodes back, an extremely smart childhood friend of Robin, who can also handle

herself in hand-to-hand combat against him. Though, not to diminish that, but really who can't

against Robin. I had her inserting herself into the sheriff's regime as a spy, as is the case

in some of the Legends. Today, we'll catch up with Robin doing what he does best. Robbing bishops,

as they ride through Sherwood Forest. Robbing saw the bishop coming his way. The man was riding

alone through Sherwood Forest. Money bags actually jostling at his side. It was like he was asking

to be robbed. He was glancing nervously from the road to the forest, and then back to the road.

Robbing smiled, as he looped his bow around his back. The old bishop was right to be nervous.
