176: Jason and the Argonauts (Myth Movie Night)

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We’re suggesting a new title for</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Jason and the Argonauts</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">—really, it should be Medea and the Himbos. This week’s movie is the 1963 edition of Jason and the Argonauts, followed by a deep dive into the original Greek telling (thanks, Edith Hamilton!).</span></p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Content Warning:</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">This episode contains conversations about or mentions of child endangerment/murder (there’s a lot of this), drowning, starvation, death, dismemberment, grief, poisoning, and fire/burning.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Housekeeping</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-</span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">Recommendation</span><span style= "font-weight: 400;">: This week, Amanda recommends</span> <a href= "https://nobadideaspodcast.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">No Bad Ideas</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">!
