This episode (35) covers the dark and chilling tales of the Greek hero Pelops. First, I cover his father Tantalus, how he dared to challenge the gods and how a father’s embrace turned deadly. Afterwards, I explore an adult Pelops' challenges as a suitor for the beautiful Hippodamia, and the thrilling chariot race that determined her fate.
