In honor of the Olympics, we are doing some stories about the Olympics in Greek mythology- and also some fun facts! Julianna gushes over the new Olympic sports (i.e. skateboarding, karate & surfing) and attempts to lead the episode herself as Sabryna takes a break. Also did you know that Apollo was good at… everything? The origins of the Olympics are definitely not as straightforward as they seem.

Delving into the 2nd age of Greek mythology, Julianna and Bryna make their way through the histories, and many downfalls, of the gods and of humanity. With the many tales of Atlas holding the heavens and Pandora opening the forbidden jar, this episode is about the do’s, and mostly don'ts, of Greek lore.
