from Missing Witches · host Liv Albert, Risa Dickens
Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! shares the most entertaining and enraging stories from 'Classical' mythology (and, often, ancient history of the wider Mediterranean!) casually, contemporarily, and (more often than not) sarcastically. Creator and host Liv Albert is author of Greek Mythology: the Gods, Goddesses, and Heroes Handbook, Nectar of the Gods, and an upcoming children's retelling of the Odyssey.Photo of Liv by Stef Martin. The Missing Witches coven is trans-inclusive, anti-racist, feminist, pro-science, anti-ableist, and full of AWE and LOVE.If that sounds like your people, come find out more. https://www.missingwitches.com/join-the-coven/
What this episode covers
"I'm an atheist witch who talks to the ancient sources. I'm not, but I am." Risa Dickens of Missing Witches joins forces with Liv Albert of Let’s Talk About Myths, Baby! for a deeply feminist, gleefully nerdy, and profoundly honest conversation about witches, overwhelm, ancient Greek goddesses, and what it means to “fuck with the patriarchy” across time. From Circe’s island of wild women to Rome’s fear of crones, from Helen’s potions to the politics of preservation, Liv and Risa unspool how mythology itself has been edited by empire and misogyny—and how reclaiming these stories might help us heal our collective memory.
