Liv speaks with Dr. Maciej Paprocki about theologizing the gods, looking for rules and order amongst the mess that is the Greek Pantheon. Learn more about the Thetis book mentioned. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content! CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault.

How did Indra Devi turn the sari into a wellness guru lewk? What bold statement were the TV designers making when they dressed Richard Hittleman and his yoga models back in the 1960s? Did Lululemon founder Chip Wilson invent the category of “yoga pants” so that yoga instructors could correctly assess posture, or so that creeps could create NSFW subreddits, or so that the culture war would have yet another reason to police the bodies of girls and women? Journalist Beau Brink (see ep 143: “Trans Reality, Trans Possibility) is back—this time as our aesthetics correspondent—to school Matthew in yoga, gender, fashion, the historical relationship between the onesie and fatphobia, the price of cotton in China, and what it means to take your clothing, your identity, and your privacy seriously.

The papatua snakeskin chiton is a fascinating critter that lives in rock pools all around Aotearoa. Their stripy, scaly girdle looks like snakeskin and they have a shell made of separate plates they can roll into a ball. Under their pretty shell, chitons are basically just a big muscly foot that secretes mucus to help them stick fast to rocks.
Have you ever thought about what a chiton can actually see? They are the hard shell mollusc that sticks to rocks, and looks a bit like an armoured slug. Well they aren't sightless. Marine scientist Professor Abby Smith talks to Jesse.
In this episode of the Lexman Artificial Podcast, Robert Breedlove joins the artificial intelligence Lexman to discuss chitons and bubals. The two discuss the different kinds of spicules and spignels that can be found on these creatures, and how they use them for locomotion, feeding, and protection.

A lesson in Alutiiq language and culture about chitons.
“…and today were are talking about a little pair of wax lips that scoots around the ocean smooching submerged surfaces.” Molluscs come in all shapes and sizes, but this little dumpling is an armored tank.
