20. Loki, the Original Horse Girl (and Saint Godzilla of Vengeance)
The long-promised Mythology Episode! Max talks Ragnarok, the struggles of freelancers, and Loki's "horse girl" era; Janey tells the story of Saint Olga of Kyiv, who, faced with the decision to "get mad or get even," chooses both - and adds in "get canonized." (Also featuring the extensive lore of Osmosis Jones.)
