Listen Later

In this episode, we journey into the heart of Greek mythology to uncover the legend of the Minotaur, the fearsome half-man, half-bull creature that dwelled within the mysterious Labyrinth of Crete. Born from a curse and hidden away by King Minos, the Minotaur embodies themes of monstrosity, human fear, and the consequences of unchecked desire.

We’ll explore the origins of the Minotaur, the ingenious Labyrinth designed to contain him, and the heroic story of Theseus, who ventured into the maze to face the beast. Beyond the myth, we’ll uncover the symbolic meaning of the Minotaur — a representation of inner struggles, primal instincts, and the eternal human battle between reason and chaos.

Prepare to descend into the maze and confront the terrifying yet fascinating world of the Minotaur, the Beast of the Labyrinth.
