    Agamemnon & Iphigenia

    The first of a grim pair of episodes depicting filicide within Greek myths. We piece together the story of Agamemnon's sacrificing Iphigenia for favorable winds - and the fallout of such action after the war. All this with an eye for how the choices parents make either support or harm the parents' individuation. Story begins | 4:52 Story ends | 20:07 This episode we will be reading from Mythology, by Edith Hamilton. The following are also referenced in this episode: The Red Book: Liber Novus - by C.G.

    Narcissus

    We recorded this shortly after the 2024 US election results but, as it took some time to edit, we decided to post on inauguration day. In a time when self-absorbed billionaires have taken control of government, this episode's topic feels particularly relevant. Story begins | 2:00 Story ends | 6:20 This episode we will be reading from: Metamorphoses, by Ovid. Translation by Mary M. Innes.

    Eros and Psyche

    This episode departs from the physicality of Hercules' deeds to discuss a more spiritual tale of love. Eros and Psyche is in many ways a story in opposition to Hercules. For while he remains emotionally unchanged by the end of his tale, the very core of this love story is emotional development. Story begins | 2:50 Story ends | 26:02 This episode we will be reading from: ⁠⁠⁠Mythology - by Edith Hamilton⁠⁠⁠ Adina's extra reading comes from: Alchemy of the Soul: The Eros and Psyche Myth as a Guide to Transformation - by Martin Lowenthal You're Not What I Expected - by Polly Young-Eisendrath Our intro/outro music a sample of Seikilos Epitaph with the Lyre of Apollo, by Lina Palera, under an Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 International License.

    Hercules - The Hero's Journey

    In this episode we discuss the story of Hercules, the strongest man and perhaps the most well known of Greek heroes. While folks are probably familiar with general highlights of his story, many of the finer details may be surprising. After consuming the entirety of his legend, it's hard to call it anything else but tragic. Story begins | 2:30 Story ends | 16:55 This season we will be reading from: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mythology by Edith Hamilton⁠⁠Our intro/outro music a sample of Seikilos Epitaph with the Lyre of Apollo, by Lina Palera, under an Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 International License.
