Episode description
Dear Listeners,
Here is the anticipated next episode of the Odyssey Odyssey. JFK and I use Book 2 to work out what happens to young Tels, how it happened, and what we can learn from it. Will our man Tels find the courage to seek his father? Will Athena reveal herself? Will Penelope stop her son from leaving? Will the suitors stop eating all the food? And how much wine does a young man need for a sailing trip?
From the townhall meeting with a bad omen, to a midnight raid to get the best booze, once again, so many modern life lessons from a story that is 3000 years old.
Please join us as we dive again into the world of ancient Greece, gods and the wine-dark sea.
Oh - and please subscribe, and yes the audio will bet better soon.
