Description
The origin of the concept of Soulmates, from Plato's Symposium. It's weird, but ultimately lovely.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: Plato's Symposium, translated by Christopher Gill.Attributions and licensing information for music used in the podcast can be found here: mythsbaby.com/sources-attributions.
