Join Caitlinn Curry and Randall Ulyate as they continue their exploration of the Ancient Greek Underworld with this episode on the Furies! As the manifestation of badass female justice and a dizzying descent into madness, the Furies are unique figures in Ancient Greek Mythology. It’s been a long winter break, and we’re so happy to be out of hibernation!
