• So, there’s this episode about Early Athens. It talks about the myths and history, like the story of their first king Kekrops and that whole Athena vs. Poseidon thing. Then there's Erichthonios and Theseus, plus some boring stuff about the end of monarchy and the rise of oligarchy. Kylon tried to become a tyrant once, but it didn’t go well. Honestly, it feels like a lot of names and events that just drag on.

    If you’re into ancient history, maybe give it a listen. If not, well, it’s just more of the same old stuff.

  • Ever wondered what happens when you mix a man with a bull? You get the Minotaur—proof that ancient Greeks were really into “unique” dating profiles. Trapped in a labyrinth (presumably because no one wanted to share a flat with him), this half-man, half-bull creature feasted on human flesh like it was the latest food trend. And who could forget Theseus, the ultimate hero, swooping in with a ball of string, because navigating a maze without Google Maps would just be too much, right?

    The legacy of the Minotaur? A reminder that sometimes, it’s not just about slaying monsters, but about understanding them... and maybe getting them a therapist.
