Our listeners love our Greek mythology episodes, so we've got another one for you today!

Ellie talks about the story of Perseus, the son of Zeus and Danaë, the daughter of Acrisius of Argos. He became the slayer of the Gorgon Medusa and the rescuer of Andromeda from a sea monster.

Perseus' story shows how prophecies can seem like they won't come true, but they can come back around to bite when you're least expecting it...
