Year 2, Episode 15: Insects in Mythology
Originally published July 24, 2020.
Cultural Interns Eris and Z are talking about bugs! Mythological ones, anyway. Bugs in mythology. Mostly just when Loki turns into a fly in order to sabotage Mjolnir's creation and also when Athena turned Arachne into a spider.
Yeah. Bugs.
