Hooked on all the Ho Hos

Published: Jan. 3, 2021, 9:05 a.m.

b'We are kicking our Japanese triptych off with a slice of mythology that\\u2019s been aged to perfection. Ashley takes us back to the 8th century to explore the story of the conflict between two brothers, Ho-Deri and Hoho-Demi, and how it helped shape or reshape Japanese history. Afterward, Ashley offers some connections between this myth and similar myths from cultures around the world through the motif of the warring brothers. We hope this first course will whet your appetite for the rest of our Japanese menu!To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.
