Episode description

Liv speaks with Alexandra Sills (of Gladiator episodes fame) about the origins of the Olympic Games. Spoilers: the ancient Greeks were a wild bunch. Read more from Alexandra at Bad Ancient and Working Classicists. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content!

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
