    EP 69 — Odysseus Takes the Long Way Home
    Nov 21 2025

    The hero of the Odyssey and the Trojan War has to navigate treacherous waters and deities on his 10-year journey home. We join Odysseus for part of it. Meet Circe, the Sirens, and the sea monsters that slow his passage. If the trip had been ranked on a travel website, it would have gotten a negative rating.

Absolutely loved it, what a great way to learn about Greek Mythology from someone who's passion comes out in the stories told. I can listen to them all day, over and over again. Thank you kindly Patrick.
