The Twelfth Labor of Heracles, or Why Hera and Hades Are At Odds

Send over your dead SMS messages.Greetings, listeners! Today, we travel back in time to a time when ancient Greece was in its prime, and heroes walked among us. We learn about Heracles, the hero who was tasked with performing twelve Labors to atone for slaying his family in an induced fit of madness. The final Labor, as you will see, involved the Underworld, because Hera was trying to get rid of Heracles. Hades wasn't having any of it, hence the silence between these two deities and Hera's absence on the podcast. Listen as Hera makes her debut in this blast from the past. Comments, questions, and requests may be sent via dead letter to [email protected].
