In today's episode, we continue the Greek Creation story. We left Zeus off on the island of Crete. As he grows stronger, Gaia whispers to Zeus to overthrow his father Kronos. With the help of a magic potion, a massive amount of vomiting, and the cyclopes, Zeus is able to overthrow Kronos in an epic battle called the Titanomachy.
