The most entertaining and enraging stories from mythology (and, now, ancient history of the Mediterranean) told casually, contemporarily, and (let's be honest) sarcastically. Greek and Roman gods did some pretty weird (and awful) things. Gods, goddesses, heroes, monsters, and everything in between. Regular episodes every Tuesday, conversations with authors and scholars or readings of ancient epics every Friday. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. more

Minimalist productions of original plays by MC, drawn mostly but not exclusively* from Greek mythology. The first plays were Midas and Medea, followed by Jonah*, the crowdcasts As the Olympian World Turns and Last Gasp, then MC's Homeric Cycle, Icarus, Murph!*, two more crowdcasts An Apocalyptic Apotheosis and Orpheus, and the modern Skool Dayz*. MC himself voices most of these (except for cameos and crowdcasts, obviously wherein he can scarcely be heard, which may be a relief to some, lol!). At any rate, enjoy! * Jonah `ain't exactly Greek, nor Murph, nor Skool Dayz for that matter! more

A dramatic adventure for tweens and listeners of all ages, Live from Mount Olympus weaves timeless Greek myths with the artistry of foremost contemporary theater-makers and the imaginative power of audio. Hermes, god of storytellers, travelers, and thieves (Tony Award-winner André De Shields) is our host. Season Six: Theseus and Ariadne: When King Minos of Crete demands fourteen young Athenians to feed to the monstrous Minotaur, Prince Theseus and a lively group of teenagers set sail. Minos expects his daughter Ariadne to watch quietly as the Athenian tributes meet their gruesome deaths. But Eros, mischievous god of love, takes aim with his arrows, changing the fate of Theseus and Ariadne. Season Five: Pandora: Zeus, king of the gods, commands Hephaestus to sculpt a beautiful woman out of clay, and orders each god to grant her a gift. Aphrodite bathes her in grace, Athena bestows wisdom, Zeus himself imbues her with insatiable curiosity, and Hermes gives her language and her name: Pandora, 'all the gifts.' While you may think you know Pandora's story, you've never heard it told this way before. Season Four: Prometheus: You'd think being able to see the future would be a gift but Prometheus's visions are never completely clear, and he quickly learns that not everyone wants to see what lies ahead. When he glimpses a coming war that will threaten the whole world, Prometheus knows he must forge an unlikely alliance with the young Olympian Zeus. But their friendship is tested when they find they have very different ideas about how to restore a shattered world. Season Three: Atalanta: A tiny newborn, abandoned in the forest, is adopted by a mama bear who raises her as her own. Under the divine guidance of Artemis and Athena, the bear girl grows up wise and strong, a skilled archer ready for adventure. When she meets the greatest heroes in all Greece - who are none too happy to hunt alongside a girl - Atalanta surprises them all. Season Two: Demeter and Persephone: Persephone is eager to strike out on her own for the first time, but is immediately pulled into the underworld and must find her power in the darkness. Her mother Demeter fights to bring her back to the sunlight, and nothing can grow. Can the Olympians stop fighting before humanity starves? Season One: Perseus: Young Perseus makes a rash promise to save his mother from the clutches of an evil king, and must strike out on a dangerous quest full of terrifying monsters, powerful gods, and a brave girl who will change our hero's life forever.
