This week, we're discussing Circe by Madeleine Miller and Women and Other Monsters: Building a New Mythology by Jess Zimmerman. Sarah gets mad about how she stopped being mad about the treatment of women. Amelia discusses the shackles of gender and commits a minor act of arson against Sarah's most prized possession (again). We got a little depressed in the middle there, not gonna lie, but I think the discussion was interesting. This episode description is the one thing keeping us from watching the final episodes of Our Flag Means Death. 

Media discussed: 
Circe, by Madeleine Miller
The Odyssey, by Homer
Women and Other Monsters: Building a New Mythology, by Jess Zimmerman 
The Selfishness of Others: An Essay on the Fear of Narcissism, by Kristen Donbek
