The Damossey Part II - Tisiphone (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As Inigo Montoya famously said "'Zeus' Law' you keep using that term. I do not think it means what you think it means." That was the original line, they changed it to "word" for the film.
The Damossey Part I - Alecto (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nolan's Odyssey is awful. Truly heinous. "How bad can it be?" you say? Well this show is two hours. It's part one. I'm naming them after the Erinyes, so you can accurately guess that there are two more of comparable length.
Bronzed Ozymandias - The Bronze Age Collapse (rebroadcast) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Yes, I will do an Odyssey show soon. I just don't want to sit anywhere for three hours. Until then, I keep getting asked about the Bronze Age Collapse. Fortunately, I already have a show about just that. It's from five years ago, it's a long scroll down the page, so I'm bumping it because I am, and have always been, way ahead of Nolan (I also did a show about Oppenheimer before he did.)
