Getting to Know An Ancient Greek Theatre Kid, Euripides’ Life & Times  
Podcast: Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold
Published On: Tue Sep 10 2024
Description: Continuing with the life of Euripides we look closer at 5th Century Athens and how the events happening around Euripides likely influenced his writing and the stories he wanted to tell. 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.
