Something Rhymes with Purple

Tantalus


Listen Later

Today’s episode is fabulous in the most literal of senses as Susie and Gyles are looking into fables and specifically the works of one of the most famous writers; Aesop.

In a slow and steady manner, we will learn about greed with the help of a goose and a golden cacklefart and how the combination of foxes and grapes can impart teachings on petulance. Be ready for many marvels, morals and myths as Susie and Gyles discuss the questions surrounding Aesop and his very existence. 


You will not be blowing hot and cold by the end of his episode as we hear from some more wonderful Purple People with their intriguing questions but you may be feeling some of the heat after Gyles’ sizzler of a poem. 


A Somethin’ Else production.
