EP 92: Ghana- The Squirrel and the Spider; Why We See Ants Carrying Bundles as Big as Themselves

This week we have two stories from WH Barker's West African Folk-Tales. In the first one, Anansi takes squirrel to court and uses logic to get what is not his. Too bad he isn't the only one with those skills. In the second story, Anansi tries to get a little rain, but instead goes big and ends up killing a man.  For this he is punished by having to carry a heavy box with him everywhere. But Anansi is always tricky.
