RE-RELEASE: Merry Mithras: International God of Mystery
If you know anything about Mithras, you might have the impression that he was kind of a proto-Jesus. Turns out that’s wrong.
Think of this as less of a seasonal episode, and more of a seasonal myth-busting episode. Get ready for the epic story of a bull-slaughtering, mushroom-tripping, light-bringing, Emperor-pee-drinking, hierarchy-maintaining, Smurf-hat-wearing cosmic warrior.
