December 19, 2025 Phoebe - The Radiant Oracle
Before Delphi echoed with Apollo's voice, it shimmered in the quiet presence of Phoebe-the Titaness of radiance and prophecy.

We'll explore her hidden powers, her legacy through Leto and Apollo, and why some truths arrive like moonlight, not fire. What did the gods whisper about her? Why did she give away the greatest oracle of all time? And what does it mean to know, but not command? Come walk with me through the stillness. Because even the gods have issues.

August 31, 2025 Dionysus: The God Who Danced Through the Cracks
In this episode of The Olympic Family, Harmonia invites us into the wild and wondrous world of Dionysus--the god of transformation, theater, mystery, and joy that walks the edge of madness. Born twice, raised in secret, and mocked by the Olympians, Dionysus didn't demand a throne--he danced into one.
We follow his myth through laughter and loss, masks and meaning, and a shipful of pirates who learned (the hard way) what happens when you underestimate a barefoot boy on the beach.
Next time: the age of Titans begins, and the world meets Cronus.
