Medusa, Feminism, & Wine, an End of Year...

Liv Albert
About this episode

It's time for an end of year Q&A! I answer all of your questions about gods, goddesses, history, tragedy, and wine!

 

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.
