Story 87: Baldr’s MistleFOE

Muses of Mythology

“Loki is—I’m assuming—an insecure, jealous dick.”
This week, Darien (she/her) and DJ (he/him) discuss how Baldr, the greatest guy ever, kicked the bucket because Loki just couldn’t deal with not being the center of attention for five minutes.
Other topics include finally being able to read comments from Spotify listeners, Baldr being the god of ????, Loki being a insecure, jealous dick, the oversimplification of stating that Snorri “made it up,” legal ramifications regarding the age of mistletoe, addressing “Norse Jesus” allegations, and an unexpected but passionate defense of Padmé Amidala in the face of “died from a broken heart” slander.
Spoilers for God of War (2018), Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Baldur’s Gate, Witches of East End, and Marvel Comics lore
