Episode Eighteen: The Wicked and the Divine
Saturday Nov 26, 2022
Saturday Nov 26, 2022
In this episode, we discuss The Wicked and the Divine vols. 1-4, by Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie. We talk Dionysus, the Satanic Panic (and also Satan, a bit), child sacrifice, and the Homeric Hymn to Demeter, plus a few takes that make it clear that at time of recording, neither of us had read the entire run. In summary: art good.

- Profanity
- Discussion of child/infant death, specifically ritual child sacrifice
- Mentions of rape and sexual assault
- Mentions of sex and sexuality
