Sleepy Fireplace Sounds and Enigmatic Historical Artifacts: Dodecahedrons, Lewis Chessmen...
11/11/2026 | 2h 3minIn this bedtime story, I tell you about four different sets of objects that come with their own historical mysteries:
• The Roman Dodecahedrons, which are bronze objects from the late Roman Empire that do not seem to have any identifiable use.
• The Neolithic and Bronze Age Carved Stone Balls from Scotland.
• The Stone Spheres of Costa Rica.
• The Lewis Chessmen, a set of chess pieces found on the Isle of Lewis.

08/11/2026 | 1h 4minIn this soft-spoken bedtime story, I tell you about four Greek myths:
• Pandora and her jar (or box), which according to Hesiod contained countless plagues that she let escape, providing a backstory for the existence of suffering in human life. This myth works as a "theodicy" (a backstory or an argument that explains why evil is part of the human condition when God(s) would have the power to avoid it). It is also connected to the biblical character of Eve, and scratching the surface by looking at different versions of this myth reveals a more ambivalent figure:
• The tragedy of the Danaïdes, daughters of King Danaus condemned to a futile task forever for the murders of their husbands.
• Sisyphus, the king of Corinth, who was sentenced to another eternity of useless work for defying Zeus and cheating death. He was punished for his hubris: the overconfidence that made him lose touch with the reality of his condition.
• Icarus, the young man who flew too close to the sun and fell, is another example of hubris.
In this remastered edition, I've also added several new details and lesser-known stories. We'll discover how Pandora's family connects to the Greek myth of the great flood, an unexpected connection between Sisyphus and Odysseus, and how the philosopher Albert Camus interpreted Sisyphus's eternal punishment. Finally, we'll explore a darker side of Daedalus through the story of his gifted nephew, which gives the tragic fate of Icarus a different perspective.

01/11/2026 | 1h 6minWhere did the idea of the vampire come from? In this Halloween special, we will trace the myth from ancient creatures like Lilith and Lamia to medieval stories of the restless dead, vampire panics in Eastern Europe, and figures such as Vlad the Impaler and Elizabeth Báthory. We will also look at how literature transformed vampires in novels like The Vampyre, Carmilla, and Dracula, before cinema gave us Bela Lugosi, Nosferatu, and the modern vampire we recognize today. Get ready to see how fear, folklore, disease, and imagination shaped the legend.

18/10/2026 | 1h 9minIn this soft-spoken story, I tell you about Greek mythology around the Trojan War. We explore its storylines and numerous characters, from gods like Zeus, Athena, Apollo, Aphrodite, and Hera to heroes and other mortals: Menelaus, Agamemnon, Odysseus, Achilles, Ajax, Patroclus, Hector, Priam, Paris, Aeneas, Helen of Troy, and many more. Discover how the feud between the gods over Eris’ golden apple spilled over into the world of men, and everything that ensued. I also tell you about the Trojan Horse, various other myths, and archaeology: When and how did Greek mythology take shape? Was Troy real? Where is the frontier between legend and history?
This is a remastered and expanded version of one of my earlier episodes, with improved audio and new material. I have added discoveries and historical evidence that help us look more closely at the possible reality behind the legend, including Hittite records referring to Wilusa and Ahhiyawa, more about the archaeology and different layers of Troy, and what we know about the city during the Late Bronze Age. I have also expanded parts of the traditional story, including the warnings of Cassandra and Laocoön and the ancient sources that tell us about the Trojan Horse.
