| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Spirits Podcast, a boosy dive into mythology, legends, and folklore. |
| 0:03.9 | Every week we pour a drink and learn about a new story from around the world. |
| 0:07.4 | I'm Amanda. |
| 0:08.0 | And I'm Julia. |
| 0:09.0 | And this is episode 186 mythological dogs live from the Boston Museum of Science, but on the internet. |
| 0:15.2 | But on the internet, yeah, this was supposed to be a in-person live show. |
| 0:19.7 | But unfortunately, because of the pandemic, we |
| 0:21.5 | weren't able to get to the Museum of Science. |
| 0:24.2 | But we were so grateful that they were willing to have us do a virtual show instead because |
| 0:29.0 | it meant a lot of the people on the internet got to come that wouldn't have been able to. |
| 0:33.4 | It was extremely fun. |
| 0:35.1 | I think it's still a very good show in audio, not just in video. And thank you again to the museum for having us. We hope to make it in person soon. Yes, hopefully. And when we do, Julia, I know that I would love to walk through a museum with our newest patrons, Rebecca Afternoon Star, Fruity Chick and the Lovely Loveless, along with our supporting producer-level patrons who always have a favorite exhibit that they want to take you to and describe exactly what it is they love about it. |
| 1:02.6 | Megan Moon, Keegan Landon, Baz, Mr. Folk, Jen, Hannah, Alicia, Sarah, Nikki, Megan, Deborah, Molly, Skyla, Samantha, Neil, Jessica, and Phil Fresh, and Julia, those legend-level patrons who are the equivalent of people who have wings named after them in museums. |
| 1:18.5 | But they're not, like, often terrible racists, which is great. |
| 1:22.4 | No, they are definitely not. |
| 1:24.8 | Jordan, Donald, Eden, Drew, Avonlea, Ashley, Chelsea, Clara, Frances, Josie, Kylie, Morgan, |
| 1:30.8 | Bia me up Scotty, Aja, Chris, Mark, Sarah, and Jack Marie. |
| 1:34.2 | We love you all very much, very, very much. |
| 1:36.6 | We'll put up statues of you one day. |
| 1:38.2 | I love that. |
| 1:38.9 | And Julia, remind us what you were drinking during this episode, Very, very themed. So I made us salty dogs, which actually is a callback |
| 1:46.2 | to a cocktail that I made for the Selkies and Kelpies episode all those years ago. So early. |
