RE-AIR: You Know He Basically Invented Robots?! Hephaestus & His Forge  
Podcast: Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold
Published On: Tue Jan 23 2024
Description: Revisiting the must underrated of Olympians... Hephaestus beyond the drama: the importance and lasting impact of the god of the forge (there are *robots*!). 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.
