Content Warning: Greek/Roman Gods, sexual assault, physical assault
After making a joke months and months ago on one of our LIVE events on Instagram, we make good on the episode devoted to bug names and how they got them. Geoff takes the lead in this episode while Katrina literally lies back and relaxes (while her back is healing). But first she retells the story of Arachne weaving truth to power against Athena. Then Geoff tells us the story of Scorpio and Orion followed by a tale from Romania of how the dragonfly got its name.
