    The Odyssey: Book 3 – Storytime in Pylos
    Jan 25 2026

    Even though I'm a bit under the weather, I won't let that stop me from recording and putting out a new episode of my favourite podcast as of right now.

    This one is one big storytime, Ancient Greek style. And can we talk about the plot twist at the end? Wild. I'm so ready for book 4 already, aren't you?

    The Odyssey: Book 2 – The assembly and the audacity
    Jan 18 2026

    Book 2 is here in all it's glory!


    Isn't it kind of crazy how Telemachus calls for the first assembly in twenty years! Twenty years! We also get a small insight into who Penelope actually is. She's not just a grieving (alleged) widow. There's the omen, the seer, and more Athena. All good stuff.

    The Odyssey: Book 1 – What’s the deal with Odysseus?
    Jan 11 2026

    The covers have been opened, the first pages turned, and together we'll explore book 1 of the Odyssey... in gossip style.

    Can you believe it? Athena just ignores the others and does what she wants! The suitors have infiltrated the castle! Penelope tells the musicians to be quiet! And Telemachus talks back at her! Whaaaaat? Crazy!
