This week we try to give you a Cliff's Notes on mythology and a bit of a close reading of The Wicked and the Divine, and we would have got away with it too if it weren't for those pesky booze-sodden minds.

If you'd like more detail, we've provided a load of background information on the gods here, as well as a more structured look at the notions of performative identity we covered in the show.

What have we been reading? I'll tell you:

• The Wicked and the Divine - Kieron Gillen, Jamie McKelvie, Matthew Wilson
