Deeper Lore: 313 (7, 67, & 101)

August 26, 2026

AI Summary

5 min read

Aaron Mahnke’s Lore episode “Tall Tall Tales” (313) explores the dense folklore surrounding Mount Shasta in California, a single location that has attracted an extraordinary number of competing legends. In this “Deeper Lore” bonus episode, Mahnke does not re-narrate that episode. Instead, he curates three older episodes from the Lore archive—numbers 7, 67, and 101—that share a thematic kinship: the strange stories that emerge from American wilderness, each centered on a distinct geographic hotspot. The throughline is that specific landscapes, not just general spooky places, can generate concentrated clusters of folklore that feel both ancient and alive.
