Daedalus’ Inventions, Icarus & the Melting Point of Wax
Podcast:Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold Rating: Explicit Published On: Tue May 26 2020 Description: A certain famous inventor and his impulsive son attempt to escape the island of Crete. It doesn't go well. Flying too close to the sun has a price. CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
