Description

It's here: 2020's Pride special. Greek mythology loves a gay story, a queer story, a trans story. The long, long list of LGBTQIA stories from the ancient Greek world are covered. Plus, Liv has a wonderful and hilarious conversation with Mari Phillips of Myths & Tits, stunning art devoted to representation in mythology. Check out Myths & Tits on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mythsntits/.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.Past episodes referenced include:Mini Myth: The Olympians Put the B in LGBTQ+, A Pride CompendiumMini Myth: When A Girl Loves a Girl, Ovid’s Iphis & IantheMini Myth: Apollo and Hyacinthus, a Frisbee TragedyFan Expo Live Episode: Is It Spring Yet?

The most entertaining and enraging stories from mythology told casually, contemporarily, and (let's be honest) sarcastically. Greek and Roman gods did some pretty weird (and awful) things. Liv focuses on Greek and Roman mythology's (mis)treatment of women, the wild things the gods did, and the all around incredible minds of the ancient world. Gods, goddesses, heroes, monsters, and everything in between. Regular episodes every Tuesday, conversations with authors and scholars or readings of ancient epics every Friday.
