Summary

Original broadcast date October 13, 2022. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2022/10/binary-system-podcast-333-lore-olympus-and-the-sandman-episode-4/ So what's Apollo up to? How is Demeter going to mess things up for Hades and Persephone? Did Aphrodite get married to Hephaestus when she threw over Ares, or someone else? And where's Psyche been this entire time that the mortal realm was cut off from Olympus? You'd think we'd be happy with the story progression we got in episodes 213 and 214 of Lore Olympus (not to mention the character development for a certain river nymph; do we actually like Minthe now?), but all we keep doing is asking a lot more questions. After that we...you know what? Let's just throw up a trigger warning for our recap of the latest episode of The Sandman. Episode 4 had a much gentler start than original comic issue it's based on, and obviously some elements had to be toned down for TV. But there are still instances of torture, and violence, and child abuse, and sex that we're not entirely sure was consensual. So while it's an excellent episode, in many ways this adaptation is even more disturbing. This week's outro is a clip from Skyrise for Tomorrow by TeknoAXE Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person? Want to buy them (or yourself) a square foot of a castle in Scotland? Look no further! You can support the restoration of Dunan's castle, legally call yourself Lady or Laird, AND if you use http://www.scottishlaird.co.uk/#_a_2gk to get there, you can support this podcast too!  For updates, fan art, and other randomness, come follow us on Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, and Instagram!
