Zeus and Darkworld episode 2, one day... maybe.
Could do a video of how Osiris was murdered by Set and how Horus got involved
I love your rants
Could do a video on the egyptian pantheon family tree.
If you are having trouble with noise when doing videos, i would recommend getting pads for the walls of where you record. They tend to drown out unwanted noise.
@@wcapewell3089 the Egyptian pantheon is above game of thrones level of incest. Osiris defeated Set when Set ate his cum. Genderbender and incest. The most awkward religion to talk about
These videos are dangerous. Every time I watch one of them I get wormholed into binge watching 10 more
FACTS...
Same here,even more sometimes!!
My Husband's getting Jealous,he thinks I go off and doing the Dirty on him!!
Truly,he has stopped my snake-charming allowance,that tames my Unruly Locks!!
He goes too Far,🐍🐂🐎🕊🦅🤦🏻!!
That's exactly what happened with me tonight, I started at 11p and it's 3:49a now. I''m going to repeat tomorrow night and it all reminds me of high school Greek mythology class movies.
You telling me
I had just watched 24 videos already
Some are just a re watch of Norse mythology
Same
I think we need a series called the many affairs of the Gods
Would to see that😂
I think you're more likely to get a Netflix original of that than a RUclips series. LOL.
the whole episode would be about Zeus then.
@@razoredge8256 yeah I'd say that's pretty accurate
@@carlosgarza400 i mean younger generation of Olympians are his children.
"basically if it moves and breathes it's most likely from Poseidon or zeus"😂
And perhaps, even those, that do not move.
Poseidon stepped it up. He has a golden fleece for an offspring
How about hephestus premature ejaculating and getting the earth pregnant?
Ray S say what now
Ray S explain
Poseidon: Gimme my cow back!
Minos: No.
Poseidon: Fine. Your wife is a Furry now
Minos: Wut?!
😂😂

The real house wifes of Olympus. Best Joke I've heard all week
Need to be a real show
My ribs still hurt🤣👍
I’d watch that!😂
As long as they represent our beloved goddesses appropriately and not have it tacky/annoying as all reality shows are then it would be a very fun series to follow.
I would watch that show
“I honestly don’t know whose cheating on who now”.
Everyone man, everyone.
That's why they should rename it Keeping Up With the Greek Gods
Just tell Hera that all of your neighbours are zeus's offsprings, she will make their lifes miserable
poor neighbors..😂
Why the fuck would she? Despite the misconceptions y'all are so fond of, she rarely cares about Zeus's spawn even when they are great heroes?
@Omnia Vanitas Hera tried killing Heracles about a dozen times.
@@voidpickle5684
Yes? This is why I said that she only rarely took issue with Zeus' spawn. Herakles was one of those few. It doesn't change the fact that she paid absolutely no attention to 95% of her husband's illegitimate children.
@Omnia Vanitas didn’t she literally try to make it impossible for Artemis and Apollo to be born? She basically said she can’t give birth on any island or continent or basically the entire world map? The mother had to move to a disconnected piece of dirt to give birth.
"You challenge me, mortal?! A God of Olympus?!"
-Poseidon
Kratos:hold my beer
Kratos - the most idiotic and pathetic anger ridden character in history. Like a baby in nappies running round.
TheMarker2015 L.S well all I know is that he killed all the GODS that was in front of his path of revenge and yes ladies and gentlemen he banged Aphrodite and killed Zeus with bare hands and feet plus his mad because he got scammed by Zeus
ShalakumX Simba Tricked you dumbass
A TRUE WARRIOR DOESN’T HIDE POSEIDON!!
My husband just walked by and asked me what i was watching.
My Response: Real House Wives of Atlantis
😂😂
😂
.L.O.L
😂🤣👍
I needed this laugh
"i used to date your daddy"
-Medusa to Percy, PJ and the Olympians: Lighting thief movie 2010
Then he cut off her head and mailed it to Olympus
The reality of the movie is a son getting rid of his father's rape victim
@@notaseal7864 yes and no!
Only one story depicts that and its not even from an actual ancient greek
@Κρις Κρος oh I never knew this and from what I've heard about Greek Mythology I kinda expect the Greek gods to be like that. Americans have a tendacy to view Greek Mythology through a christianized lens so they view hades as evil and Zeus as the altruistic savior. But from my limited Knowledge out of the 3 brothers Hades is the best guy.
@@notaseal7864 yup, from worst to best it goes from Zeus-Poseidon-Hades, Zeus has too many rape victims to count, Poseidon's frequent rage fests are literaly what causes storms at sea and floods however he's not rapy like Zeus while you might be able to find some it's not nearly as commom as Zeus and lastly Hades, the only controversial thong Hades did was the whole Persephone thing, i think just one case that sometimes isn't even bad is a pretty good record
I can‘t help but imagine a dolphin as a wedding planner
The best thing
*mentions Triton*
Me (thinking back to The Little Mermaid): ahh, that's who he was.
Made even more interesting by the fact that Ariel's mother was named Athena
@@PlaystationSimmer dude I swear I was just over here thinking, wait if Ariel is the daughter of Poseidon doesn’t that mean she’s a goddess or if her mother isn’t a goddess isn’t she a demigod?
Such a good neighbour Never wishing harm....But THEORETICALLY if a earthquake hit at just the right angle if ya know what i mean *wink* *wink*
Hopefully this video pleases Poseidon. Or, at the very least, doesn't make him angry. That's always good. XD
*oiiu*
read that comment to the tune of the statefarm jingle
Mythology and Fiction just say the word and maybe your neighbors house will be pulled to the underworld Theoretically. I owe you for your video on me thanks for the good PR.
Don't get me wrong, but I know Poseidon can be moody and such. But in Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief, Poseidon mostly cares about his son mostly. When I saw Poseidon and Zeus meeting up with each other, i heard Poseidon said: You're accusing my son? I haven't seen him since he was a baby, he doesn't know me and doesn't know much because of you. And then Zeus said: If he is the thief, I'll sent him to the pits of Tartarus. And then Poseidon grabs him by his jacket aggressively. And he said: You touch him, you'll have to go through me. When I saw them doing that. I thought they were about to going at each other. But I was wrong.
@@dr.robotico8500 ah the big 3 broke the law about siring demi gods
How about... a whole series of videos detailing every single one of Poseidon's and Zeus' children?
In 70 years, with my dying breath I would curse upon the stars for the series would have just barely reached it's halfpoint and I wouldn't be able to see the rest...
I think this is why it's taking so long for them to do a video on Zeus
Poseidon was the founder of Atlantis. Fitting that he is associated with earthquakes and floods.
"If Pokemon has taught us anything, it's that thunder is stronger than water." Seems legit.
Good think Poseidon's only power isn't water
@@brayden1892 True. Earthquake is super effect against electric types 😂.
@@lucariomew365 well if you think earthquake is his only other ability you obviously don't know much about Greek mythology then😂
@@brayden1892 No I do, I'm just making another Pokemon analogy :p.
@@lucariomew365 took you a while to respond and were talking about Greek gods? Because u tried saying only other thing Poseidon can do is earthquake.
Im SO very glad you do the silly tangents and make the jokes you do. Especially since you keep the calm soothing voice throughout the entire video. Please keep up with making this amazingly informative content.✌💚😊 to you all
🍻🎳🍻🎳😴❤️❤️😭😔😭
Ancient Greeks: "Poseidon!" - "Zeus!"-"Poseidon!" - "Zeus!"-"Poseidon!" - "Zeus!"
Me: vote for Hades!
@Joseph Boodoo lemme guess... Christian?
@Joseph Boodoo bruh, chill 😂
@@alexastorm4468 Yeah, another pissed Christian , doesn't have anything smart to say , but just to hate and disrespect other religions , honestly it's not worth trying to explain these people , they will never learn , and if that Christian was respecting his God , he should know at least this "love your neighbour as yourself"
@Joseph Boodoo listen, if you want me to respect you for your faith, you better learn to accept and respect others for their faith. Do onto others as you would want others do onto you, right?
Hades is sus!
You’re right. A penguin would be the best option to officiate a wedding 😆.
Real Housewives of Olympus.
Starring: Hera, Aphrodite, Artemis, Demeter, Athena, Hestia and Persephone.
EP1S1- Zeus' children that Hera has made miserable
EP2S1- Poseidon, Aries and Aphrodite talk it out
EP3S1 - Hera and Aphrodite slug it out in a no-holds bar verbal combat 😂😂😂😂
When I was a kid and drawing Poseidon I always drew him as a merman. But now ai see I was drawing him wrong. Instead of my drawing Poseidon, I was drawing his son. Thanks for the helpful advice.
I just heard my neighbor yelling, through the walls, man. I feel you.
Greek mythology the first drama tv show and this is when MTV started
What about doing
1. Thunderbird
2. Calypso
3. Bigfoot
To add to the list
I’d love more videos about Poseidon honestly.
when he was listing off Poseidon Kids
Percy Jackson is sad (yes he counts)
Not Percy Perseus
Tristan Gilfillan perseus is percy’s full name
And he’s his favorite
In clash of the titans Perseus is Zeus’ son no?
@@comradecrazy6567 In actual Greek mythology Perseus is the son of Zeus
MOST OF GREEK MYTHOLOGY HAPPENED BECAUSE ZEUS COULDN'T KEEP IT IN HIS TOGA!
I did a report on this and the entire class (including my hardass professor) agreed with me!
How does one blaem him? Do you see the most highs creations?
Zeus is the Playboy of the Gods
@@trevoromondi1663 agreed. The role of playboy , children making, r@ping, and making ppl angry suits him better
I'm actually dying at your tangent 😂😂
Only if they knew what a pull out game was back in the day
Weak really weak
'And I would love to remain somewhat sane.' You will absolutely love going through all the deities featured in The Classic of Mountains And Seas by the sounds of it.
My favorite Olympian 🧜♂️🌊💙
Mine too, and theoretically, on neutral land, Poseidon could triumph over Zeus....
@@iyaiiya-wawg3657 most of the gods are rapist
@@iyaiiya-wawg3657 All of them are offenders of some kind or another. Zeus is a paranoid rapist,Poseidon is practically the same except more petty, Hades is a stalker/kidnapper, Juno is a punishes the victims of her husband, Demeter is a child kidnapper, Athena is so insecure to the point of being homicidal, etc. The only unproblematic one among them is Hestia.
@@kurdisezzy1494 they can do whatever thry want so that doesn't matter .
I’m really looking forward to the video explaining Troy and the Trojan War.
I scrolled through the comments and I can't believe nobody mentioned the skyrim background music. Makes this video even better!
Poseidon will always be my favorite in all of Greek Mythology...
Poseidon; the second most underrated greek deity of the olympian deities
Underrated? He's the second most powerful god, almost overthrew his brother and he was highly respected by ancients despite his hot temper and anger issues.
@@jimkol8799 true.
and his titles as the earthshaker and stormbringer is talking about his powers.
cool as titles for a hissy fitty god.
@@theegrach well, if people in ancient Greece called him hissy fit god or something, Poseidon might drown them.
yea............. possibly Whole Greece turn into giant pool or something.
@the doruk: Poseidon was the main antagonist of the Odysee because Odysseus killed his son(the Cyclops).
The time has finally come.
I just visited the Temple of Sounis and Athens that type of sunset was something you don't forget even after a few lifetimes
I enjoy your tangents just as much as I enjoy your hard work posting high quality videos, thx man
His neighbors: Get struck by lightning while being sucked into a black hole.
M&FE: oh shit.. i better make that zeus video
Anyone else notice the Skyrim background music?
Is that where it's from? Been years since I've heard it.
Yes! Made me so happy when I realized it was indeed playing softly in the background 😌
Yes I know that sound anywhere lol so many memories.
damn, you were extra sassy on this video 😂
"If you dont a think that a penguin has a tuxedo then your wrong"
Ps:great joke
One of my favorites ☺️
Please don’t let anything stop you for making videos they’re awesome and a exponential learning piece to me and the people I teach during C19
If I close my eyes it's almost as if I'm chilling at Breezehome, sitting by the fire and you're right there telling me these stories. But I won't close my eyes because some of this artwork is really beautiful.
"If Pokémon taught us anything it's that thunder is super effective against water".
- M & F E
Thanks of the tip. I have now an A + on my Chemistry test.
I don't know how you can just crack these jokes and keep a straight face
About damn time
I like the humorous tangents. It adds character and a different atmosphere versus you're older videos. 👌
Skyrim really does have calming music, even with you talking about God's, it still fits with the theme lol
Note that Scylla was turned into a costal cliff by Poseidon in Messina. After being turned into the Famous Sea Monster by Amphitrite. Black Death originated in October 1347 when 12 ships from the Black Sea docked at the Sicillian Port in Messina.
Love love loveee your videos! Do more Egyptian mythology please
🙂
Check his playlist.
And please, subscribe.😅✌
I've watched a lot of your videos but holy dang, the amount of sass you were churning out in this one was _amazing_ . I applaud you, sir.
I’ve only just stumbled into your channel and I’m watching everything. Amazing detail, work and jokes man! Love it!
Love your videos. Your voice is perfect for wisdom and knowledge of mythologies and monsters and love your opening. Also spot a book with the symbol of The Jedi Order on it.
I like how he starts going oFf about his neighbor in such a monotone voice XD
Nice one enjoyed it
You are by far! BY FAR my favorite youtuber! I can watch these all day everyday!!! I love your videos man!!!! Keep up the awesome work!!!!
Love your voice I love how you explain/give information your my personal audiobook speaker 😌😘 thank you and God bless
Would love to see some Aztec mythology
@Gaius Julius Caesar wonder why?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@Gaius Julius Caesar There people do Idk what your saying.
If people didn't cared than why is still a thing
lol love that ranting bit, and hope you've gotten better neighbors since then. love this stuff and look forward to more content! there's so much information packed into these lil episodes. I wasn't aware that there were so many other deities that were affiliated with the ocean, but since Poseidon titled himself as the god of the sea, its much easier calling on the memorable titled god than calling on to the other thousands who seem to be easily forgotten. love it!
Great video. One of your best
Love your sense of humor and "random tangents"!! A welcome bit of spice to frequently told tales and such a nice change from typical historical videos!👏👏 (I sympathize with you about your neighbors! We have had a few of those too!) 😂
The Skyrim music brought me chills from my tamriellic lore days. So cozy!
I have just found your channel during quarentine.
I love the videos you have a very soothing narrative voice and also a sharp sense of humour.
Hoping you are well.
I just found your channel a few days ago and I love it. I listen to it while I'm at work. I love and am fascinated by ancient history and mythology. I'm so happy you mentioned the Nereids not many people do. I'd love to see a video on them if there isn't one already. I only know bits and pieces of them.
Gotta say Myth your videos are increasing in quality since early days. Dw I still watch.
Some say Poseidon is more powerful than Zeus himself.
he does.
he's second strongest sons of Rhea.
Some, not many. But only one God could put the fear of, um, uh, God into Poseidon: All-Triumphant Zeus and the imperishable Thunderbolt capable of ending the Universe.
But Poseidon has a much-honoured place even amongst the Olympians and they all deserve worship.
In Ancient Greek Religion/now Mythology Zeus is the strongest deity with only exceptions the Primordial Goddesses Ananke (force, constraint, necessity) and Heimarmene (in particular, the orderly succession of cause and effect, or rather, the fate of the universe as a whole, as opposed to the destinies of individual people). Some times we can see Poseidon or Hera defying him but only up to some level. When they are one step before the full rupture they step back.
He could never lose the Being of what is represented in his Essence, which is a depth that will never be fully lit. In this way, one could say he is 'more' powerful. This would misrepresent the idea, crucially, the infinite scope of that to be discovered, does not designate power, but only potential for realization of itself. This understanding... through Zeus, becomes apparent that the Light it more powerful, but it's illumination. Again, we would be arguing purpose here, and this is not necessary in the sense that that which is unknown, must become known. It isn't hard to see that interplay being of utmost importance here, and while knowledge reigns, there will always be something to learn.
I just had a stroke reading this
The random tangents are a real treat, I catch myself enjoying those more than the actual story
Zeus: Thunder Shock!
Poseidon: (fainted)
Ash: It's super effective!
Your channel is like TED Talks of Myth & Fiction :) Vignettes of interest & knowledge.
Finally the second best of the three brothers.
Can you do some Egyptian god videos?
What about hades when it comes to power?
Hades states that Poseidon is strong enough to beat Zeus but he doesn't want the throne
Hades was the weakest of the three but still the third strongest olympian
He has a bunch of Egyptian god videos just look em up
Look in his play list if you havent already.
@@RanMaru144 Source?
The thing is, he tried. And guess what? He failed. The best part is that he wasn't even alone. He had very strong allies, but still failed. And, as a result, he was stripped of his divine authority and made to build the walls of Troy.
This was one of the best. Loved it
The Skyrim music in the back absolutely completes this video *chefs kiss*
My fav Greek god Poseidon 🧜♂️🌊💙🙏🏻
Me toooo
Hey
@@goddovepubg7292 that's nice to know 😊🔱
Watching this and listing to that background music brings back days when skyrim tried to take over my life 😂😂😂😂😂
Love the random tangent .
And the story
Thank you for your hard work at putting these stories together . I love them
Your rants are so god damn good to listen to. Please keep up the excellent work (and rants).
“House wives of Olympus” I would watch that honestly
Several ancient or classical texts mention that Zeus was the greatest and most powerful god, more powerful than Poseidon.
In the Iliad, book 8, Zeus tells the other gods how powerful he is :
"Come, try me, immortals, so all of you can learn.
Hang a great golden cable down from the heavens,
lay hold of it, all you gods, all goddesses too:
you can never drag me down from sky to earth,
not Zeus, the highest, mightiest king of kings,
not even if you worked yourselves to death.
But whenever I'd set my mind to drag you up,
in deadly earnest, I'd hoist you all with ease,
you and the earth, you and the sea, all together,
then loop that golden cable round a horn of Olympus,
bind it fast and leave the whole world dangling in mid-air-
that is how far I tower over the gods, I tower over men."
Zeus was known by other names in other places or regions in Antiquity.
I love these videos. The humour goes a long way to making them enjoyable. Keep 'em coming.
I’m loving the addition of the tangents. Incredible content 👌🏼
God safe me...I'm so addicted to myths. Its like , every time I watch a myth , I want to watch another. Its so coo,l right guys😎🙊🙊
Zues with his straw: "Weeeell would you look at that... I can't....what are the odds huh? wellp.... uh.... tough break there Hades... yep yep... ahem... ooh geez look at the chronosphere! Gonna just ...pop up to ol... eh heh heh... ol Olympus there... soooooo.... See ya bros! "
I'm totally hooked on Your videos.
Also enjoy your rants.
Your commentary is amazing I love it thanks for doing what you do
Could you make a video on the umibōzu or the yamata no orochi of japanese mythology? Love your work in these videos
I sent a letter of request to Rick Riordan about writing a book about all of Poseidon's Lovers and children and who he banged them, but of course he denied my request.
Please M&FE be a brother and make this video because I want to know for research purposes and also for comparing his bang count with Hugh Hefner
I'm living for the sidetrack commentary. Liking, subscribe and listen in the podcast to not be strike by lightning. I'm loving this channel.
I love how you use Elder Scrolls music at the end
“Black hole, I wouldn’t miss them “ lol 😂 new subscriber here! :D
At the Akron Zoo in Ohio, if you get married there, a penguin is your ring bearer
AWWWW
I love these videos. I can’t get enough of the hypnotic music and the narrator’s soothing voice. 🧜🏻♂️🔱
Interesting stuff.....Love the content
"Mythology and Random Tangents Explained."
No! The Chain of Balance has been broken! Olympus is falling! _Reee!_
I love your videos and if you need to get rid of neighbors give them a fake trip to the Bermuda Triangle tell them to get in the middle where the “good” stuff is. 🤣🤣
Loved this and the random tangents
Thank you for all of your research and narration, I know that I'm going to watch/listen this Poseidon video a few more times as I knit, there are so many paintings, sculptors, everything, extraordinary and of course watch/listen about the other Greek gods and goddesses.
