  • Summary

  • The most entertaining and enraging stories from mythology told casually, contemporarily, and (let's be honest) sarcastically. Greek and Roman gods did some pretty weird (and awful) things. Gods, goddesses, heroes, monsters, and everything in between. Regular episodes every Tuesday, conversations with authors and scholars or readings of ancient epics every Friday.

  • Greek Myth is So Much More Than Terrible Gods and Misogynist Monsters

    Greek Myth is So Much More Than Terrible Gods and Misogynist Monsters
    Jan 7 2025

    What makes a myth, and what does that mean? Liv looks at mythology as a concept and the sources that shared it with us.

    CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.

  • Hermes Homerica: They're Making an Odyssey Movie & We Have Thoughts

    Hermes Homerica: They're Making an Odyssey Movie & We Have Thoughts
    Dec 31 2024

    In a special New Years Eve episode, Michaela and Liv discuss the news that Christopher Nolan is making an adaptation of the Odyssey... For the first time, this was recorded in person so the audio isn't ideal but there will be video available on the podcast's YouTube in the next couple of days.
