To love is to suffer, but how much is too much? Is Venus the worlds worst mother-in-law?

We’re stepping away from Greek mythology and dropping straight into Roman

You can expect multiple "throw self off something" attempts combined with psychotic breaks to talk to animals, reeds, towers, and water; Cupid getting mollicoddled, and Venus losing her shit several times

Is Venus insane? Did Psyche deserve so many tasks? Would a dragon marriage have been less hassle? Let us know what you think?

Mother. Wife. Ruler. Murderer.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the life of Clytemnestra, one of Greek mythology’s most notorious and polarising queens. Come on the journey from the Spartan royal household to the blood-soaked palace of Mycenae. We’re tracing her journey from egg to grave (yes, egg, really) and asking the ultimate question: Was she a cold-blooded monster, or a grieving mother seeking justice?

Clytemnestra's story continues to captivate us, instilling not just fear but profound sympathy. If you love modern feminist mythology retellings like Madeline Miller’s Circe, Natalie Haynes' A Thousand Ships, or Costanza Casati’s Clytemnestra, this episode is for you. Equally, if you've never heard of her - we got you covered!

Is she the villain of the Trojan War, or its most tragic survivor? Listen now and decide for yourself.
