Show Notes

Here's where we tell you how to find the recipe for The Ningen, research and photos of our Antarctic creature, and the podcast we mentioned!

The Booze:

The Ningen 1oz white rum (vodka works too) 1/2oz blue curaçao (cure a sow) 1/2oz creme de violette 1oz lemon juice Put in cocktail shaker and shake it really hard. It is crazy blue and should have ice crystals across the top!

SURPRISE! It's the most wonderful time of the year, so we just HAD to get an episode out to you. We are still working on new ones, so we're not quite back yet, but enjoy this episode while you're waiting. Madman Madriaga joins Logan via Skype (excuse the sound quality) to chat about Filipino ghost stories, the state of the world, Rat Roulette, how maybe 2020 is Logan's fault?, and much more!

We are going to be taking a short hiatus due to lack of funds and being behind basically always - this will give us time to prep and record some stuff, and we'll be back on September 1st! Please subscribe to our Patreon, where we are uploading our solo folk tale narrations, or feel free to donate via the Paypal button on our website, folkloreontherocks.com. Anything helps! If you're not able to, we completely understand, and will be back in your ears soon enough! We love you all!
