About this episode
The legend of the White Snake is one of the four great folktales of China. Today, we start that with an act of kindness, demons lurking in the places we can’t look, and a (misguided?) monk hoping to bring justice.
When the creature this week has time off, it prefers crashing funerals and projectile vomiting on strangers.
