Description
EPISODE 20 (BONUS): MANANANGGAL IN MANHATTAN (Reading Melania: Devourer of Men, So You Don’t Have To) In this episode, we provide a critical follow-up to our first ever topic: the Manananggal. In an effort to address a long-held morbid curiosity ever since it first came our way, we cover the riveting and unsettling premise of the book Melania: Devourer of Men. Join us as we romp through the soaring heights of Trump Tower, get lost in the sparkling beaches of Boracay and a dodgy karaoke bar and Panay. Follow us through impossibly absurd sexual metaphors, FBI interrogations, and the total eclipse of the heart – as we learn what it’s like for a First Lady to have to hide the deep, dark, monstrous creature she has become. — The Gods Must Be Crazy is a podcast on Philippine Mythology hosted by friends Anama Dimapilis and Ice Lacsamana, avid mythology nerds, and semi-professional gossips.

You can also find us on Youtube – Gods Must Be Crazy Podcast channel, where we post some of our episodes and interviews.
