Hera and Hades Make Peace With Ambrosia Cookies and Mutual Understanding; S2E5-5 of Fireside Folklore with Hades

Send over your dead SMS messages.Greetings, listeners! Time in the Underworld moves differently, hence my delay in sharing the conclusion to the ceasefire between Hera and I which was too many millennia too late! Ironically, it was my podcast which convinced her that Zeus wasn't cheating on her and I really (and truly) wanted to make peace. You see, listeners, we gods do love to hold our grudges, and after Heracles came down to the Underworld all those millennia ago and requested that I allow him to bring Cerberus to King Eurystheus, I held my grudge tighter than a baby holds onto any object you give it, and she held her pride with the same tenacity. With a whole lot of ambrosia cookies and shared understanding, I, Hades, can now say that my sister Hera will be joining us on this folklore podcast to tell tales and be part of what has become a beloved family activity. And before we say our farewells, I'd like to thank one of our listeners, Francisco, for his contribution. You see, we gods can't project our voices into the mortal sphere anymore, but what we can do is use AI, and so, our friend Francisco chose the voice for our regal Olympian queen!If you'd like to give one of us a more divine voice or have other commentary about this podcast, please send me a dead letter at [email protected].
