Michaela here giving you a remix of past episodes, looking at three different times that we have explored Hermes here on the show. From the Homeric Hymn, to Emily Hauser's How Women Became Poets, to Aeschylus' Prometheus Bound we are examining the ways that Hermes appears within antiquity. He is an interesting character for sure, and has a lot of different paths you could take to understand him. I love him for all his trickery, his psychopomp-ness, and just generally he seems like a fun guy. Perhaps a problematic fav, but also the guy I chose to be called by on the show so. Tune in next week for the beginning of a new history series with me!

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. I try to provide direct warnings when there is reference to anything with overtly traumatic themes but be aware that Greek mythology regularly features assault, death, and many other potentially triggering events.
