Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold

Shownotes Transcript

Arachne has the nerve to out-spin the goddess Athena, and Medusa, well Medusa's crime is simply being around a god.

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.

Sources: Ovid's Metamorphoses, translated by Allen Mandelbaum.
