We are joined by Nicole O’hara and Giada Fornello, some of the creators of Myth Illogical, an upcoming animated series dealing with Gods and Goddesses in the modern day and their struggle to stay relevant in the era of tik-tok and followers.

It’s part 2 of Jason and the Argonauty Bois’ (and Atalanta’s) epic quest to Kolchis to get the Golden Fleece to earn his kingdom from evil usurper Pelias.
