During the podcast I mention that Odysseus kills the Cyclops. I know Odysseus didn't kill the Cyclops, I was kinda working from memory during the podcast, but yes he only blinded it as he needed it to move the boulder from the doorway. I may have been preoccupied with Ulysses who did kill his Cyclops, Odysseus was smarter than me. Will teach me to double-check my details next time.
