Episode description

If you’re going to have a love triangle, why not have a singing knight, a literal saint, and the Goddess of Love herself?  Come and enjoy the kind of sweeping, romantic, metaphysical yet dramatic opera that could only come from the utterly unrestrained Richard Wagner.  Evil and good, bondage and freedom, power and love clash cataclysmically, and a legendary story is definitively rewritten.

Hosted by Pat with guest co-hosts Kathleen and Grant
