The last 4 books of The Odyssey, as translated by Emily Wilson. Odysseus finally justifies his heroic status, and our podcast finally justifies its existence! It all comes down to this: the final stand-off between our main man and all the hot young guys who want to get with his wife. But also some other things happen after that, which we still have to talk about. It’s a weird, fun time, we swear. Topics include: the incredible stupidity of the suitors, ONE plot hole, ghost gossip, an update on Agamemnon’s marriage, divine amnesia, and the inability to escape oil, even after death.

Content warning: The Odyssey contains discussion of violence, sexual assault, animal sacrifice, and slavery.
