Medea is Sweet but a Psycho... (Part 1), Effed Up Mythology VII

For this (now belated) Mother's day, I thought we should talk about one of the most notorious mothers in Greek mythology. Although to be fair, she's famous for all the wrong reasons. But famous nonetheless.

Part one: Jason, Medea, the 3 tasks of Aeetes, the escape, the murder in Iolchis.

Stay tuned for part 2.
