If you don't listen to this podcast immediately then you're sure to get 7 years bad luck. We're joined by acclaimed writer and comedian Juliet Meyers to explore the folkloric world of Old Wive's Tales. We discover why vegetables were part of a battle for hearts and minds during World War 2, why you should never cross a woman selling fish in the 19th century and that you should be extremely wary of owls in the Dominican Republic.
