In this episode we tackle one of the foundational texts of Western literature, Homer's Odyssey.  Like the poem itself, the discussion is wide-ranging and at times rambling, but hopefully like the poem it also helps you think and contemplate some of the big issues in life.  The fingerprints of Homer's epic can be seen in great literature from Dante to Milton to Wallace Stevens, and it can also be found in Breaking Bad and minivans manufactured by Honda.  It's in our cultural DNA, so to speak.  

This discussion features Mr. James Hane, Dr. Larry Rhu, and Dr. Elisha Sircy.
