In this captivating episode of the Skull and Flowers Podcast, join our spirited trio - Skull, Lavender, and Rose - as they dive into Aesop's fable, "The Peacock and the Crane." Get ready for an engaging conversation centered around insults, insecurity, and the age-old debate of whether it's wise to compare ourselves to others.

Our hosts take an intriguing detour, discussing the significance of the four-minute mile, and its relation to the fable. The conversation delves into the dichotomy between a pampered life for the beautiful versus the value of freedom.

Rose's recommendation for this episode is cats, the species, not the musical. Meanwhile, Lavender suggests the heartwarming novel "White Dolphin" by Gill Lewis, which explores themes of conservation and friendship.
