Centaur of Attention

In what may be the most unconventional coping mechanism yet, I have mentally constructed my own Mount Olympus. Do you like horoscopes? Is everyone tired of hearing you talk about how you're such a Virgo? Great news-- now you can pick a Greek god to project your personality traits onto. In today's episode, we talk loneliness, building community, tell a few tall tales, and meet some new Olympians.

Your weekly coronavirus distraction is back, and more distracting than ever. You won't find a SINGLE pandemic reference here!! (Mainly because we recorded before The Great Panic.) Get lost in fantasy! Special guest Emily Rose Hart is back by popular demand to get to the bottom of her favorite myth. We talk Icarus and Daedalus, flying too close to the sun, why Aphrodite is not the lovely woman you think she is, justice for the Minotaur, a ton of beastiality, and we complain about our friends.

A welcome respite from coronavirus scariness! Today we talk about the recent controversy re: Ty Haney, Steph Korey and Audrey Gelman, and what they have in common with Medusa. Plus, what Versace's logo has to do with Greek mythology.

Special guest Emily Rose Hart joins to discuss Medea (both the Euripides tragedy and the amazing play at BAM starring Bobby Cannavale and Rose Byrne), Jason and the Argonauts, killing your kids, why "BDE" is out (and what's in!), boys vs. men.

We discuss Netflix's hottest new show (Love is Blind, obviously) and which characters have Oedipal and Electra complexes, my cannonball into the frigid waters of the unknown, a hot take on NYC's best burger and nice looking statues.
