Episode notes

A first look at folk tales from the Philippines. It's interesting to see similarities and differences between these and tales of similar supernatural or magical forces in cultures I'm more familiar with. The stories are fun to read and provide little insights into the history of The Philippines. The tales I found are in a book compiled by Mabel Cook Cole which I found at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/12814.
