XXVII: Don't be Awful, or, the Curse on the House of Atreus
Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold - A podcast by Liv Albert and iHeartPodcasts
What makes Agamemnon and Menelaus tick? There's a curse on the House of Atreus: Pelops, Myrtilus, Atreus, Thyestes, and Aegisthus, so much awful s**t.
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.
