This week's episode looks at the legendary woman known as Helen of Troy, "the face that launched a thousand ships." The daughter of either Zeus and Leda or Zeus and Nemesis, the desire to possess Helen, dubbed the most beautiful woman in the world, launched the Trojan War. We discuss her abductions by Theseus and Paris, the oath of Tyndareus, and the question of whether or not Helen went with Paris willingly or against her will--and whether Paris seduced the "real" Helen at all.

Despite their different gods, countries, and customs, our young heroes find they have more in common than they thought when Theseus tells Ariadne about how he discovered his true origins.

From Hugo admins resigning over AI panel vetting to the latest award winners and a fresh Murderbot clip—to set the stage for our book club pick. Then we dig into Mickey 7's Ship of Theseus dilemma, sharing listener takes (yes, even foot‑fetishting AIs) and the questions that keep us up at night.

Princess Ariadne leads Theseus to her dream chamber deep within the labyrinth.  Once Theseus can get over his fear of snakes, the love-struck teenagers talk about their lives and share a few secrets.

Hello!Wine was always central in the life of Ancient Greeks. Both on day to day basis, but also as foundational myths part of the story of being Greeks, their ancient and mythical past and the sacred lores of Gods. For instance take this line from the mythical battle between the Lapiths and the Centaurs."For when Pirithous wooed Hippodamia he feasted the centaurs because they were her kinsmen. But being unaccustomed to wine, they made themselves drunk by swilling it greedily, and when the bride was brought in, the attempted to violate her. But Pirithous, fully armed with Theseus, joined the battle with them, and Theseus killed many of them" -Zenobious, Centauromachy, V33Please enjoy this wine-soaked archaeogastronomical and mythical adventure in the wine history of Ancient Greece!Thanks to Pavlos Kapralos for his music.The A is For Apple Podcast episode that I've appeared is here:https://open.spotify.com/episode/6pQrdCPC32VCgsSgunH7jk?si=4001fb78b92646bdThe Europeans podcast I made a guest appearance is here:https://open.spotify.com/episode/2DqFL6863dmytM3oxYg5x9?si=666ec898ce7e4d5bSupport the podcast with one off donations on Ko-Fi here:https://ko-fi.com/thedeliciouslegacypodcastSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-delicious-legacy.

The atmosphere is electric in the central square of Knossos as the city gathers to watch the Athenian tributes dance with a very dangerous bull. Bloodthirsty cheers erupt whenever the tributes are threatened by sharp horns and hooves. But not everyone in the audience is rooting for the bull.

What do you call a museum for policemen? Who was the Urkel of this show before Urkel? And what do the Ship of Theseus and Bob Odenkirk have in common? We wink our way through these questions and more as we watch Season 1, Episode 7 of Family Matters.Alex Diamond, David Kenny, and John McDaniel heard that the long-running network sitcom Family Matters ends with side character Steve Urkel going to space. And the best way to figure out how that happened - obviously - is to watch the last episode first and make our way backwards through nearly ten years of television.Join our countdown to number one (and our slow descent into madness) in all the places you expect internet people to be:Website: jumpingtheshuttle.spaceEmail: jumpingtheshuttle@gmail.comInstagram: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Twitter: @JumpingShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577TikTok: @JumpingTheShuttle / @ThatAlexD / @dak577Brought to you by Smooth My Balls

Newly-crowned prince Theseus and thirteen brave young Athenians sail across the wine-dark sea towards the island of Crete. They are tributes, destined for the lair of the monstrous Minotaur. But Eros, the mischievous god of love, has other plans for our young hero and his crew…

By Ben Light - The Ship of Theseus represents an ancient Greek philosophical thought problem, that at its core, is an issue of identity. As you change pieces and components of the ship when they become rotten - at what point does it cease to be what it was? When the first piece is replaced? When more than half of

Rebecca and Tori are joined again by Louise discuss two productions of Shakespeare's 'Midsummer Night's Dream'—the 1968 Royal Shakespeare Company version and the 2016 adaptation directed by David Kerr. We explore these productions of Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream', focusing on character analyses, particularly of Bottom and Theseus, and the dynamics of love and friendship within the story.

When King Minos of Crete demands fourteen young Athenians to feed to the monstrous Minotaur, Prince Theseus and a lively group of teenagers set sail.  In Knossos, Minos expects his daughter Princess Ariadne to watch quietly as the Athenian tributes meet their gruesome deaths. But Eros, mischievous god of love, takes aim with his arrows, intertwining the fate of Theseus and Ariadne.  Can our young heroes somehow change the destinies of everyone around them?

Jennifer Saint worked as an English teacher in a secondary school for thirteen years, when all of a sudden, with an unexpected confidence, she felt the urge to write a novel. It wasn't just the confidence she could do it that surprised her, but the belief that it would do well. She was inspired by Greek mythology, and wanted to emphasise their relevance for the 21st Century. Her debut was 'Ariadne', which tells the legend of Theseus and the Minotaur from a female prespective. It was a Sunday Times Bestseller, a Waterstones Book of the Month, and was nominated for as their Book of the Year. She's also published 'Elektra' and 'Atalanta', also Sunday Times Bestsellers.Jennifer's new novel is 'Hera', who is Zeus' brother. Together, they overthrow their tyrannical father Titan Cronos... only Hera becomes confused with thoughts of power and leading. She is often portrayed as the jealous wife and wicked stepmother - Jennifer explains why she decided to spend a year with one of Greek mythology's most hated figures.We discuss how she picks her next retelling, also why as a teacher she wouldn't have liked how she gets to work as a writer, and what the point of Greek mythology is in 2025.Subscribe to the newsletter - writersroutine.substack.comSupport us on -patreon.com/writersroutineko-fi.com/writersroutineGet a copy of the book - uk.bookshop.org/shop/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com Hosted on Acast.

Host Robert J. Marks welcomes back Walter Myers to discuss the philosophical concept of the Ship of Theseus, a paradox about whether an object remains the same after all of its original components have been gradually replaced. Myers explains the history and origins of the paradox and explores how it relates to questions of personal identity, the mind-body problem, and Read More › Source

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Selasa, 8 April 2025Bacaan: Selanjutnya Firaun berkata kepada Yusuf: "Dengan ini aku melantik engkau menjadi kuasa atas seluruh tanah Mesir." Sesudah itu Firaun menanggalkan cincin meterainya dari jarinya dan mengenakannya pada jari Yusuf; dipakaikannyalah kepada Yusuf pakaian dari pada kain halus dan digantungkannya kalung emas pada lehernya." (Kejadian 41:41-42) Renungan: Pada awalnya fungsi dari labirin adalah untuk memenjarakan seekor monster yang bernama Minotaurus, monster yang akhirnya berhasil dikalahkan oleh seorang pahlawan bernama Theseus. Labirin ini sangat memusingkan bahkan sampai sang pencipta sendiri, Daedalus, nyaris tidak bisa keluar lagi ketika dia mencoba untuk memasukinya. Seiring dengan perkembangan zaman dan bercampurnya negara-negara dengan berbagai bahasanya, maka labirin bukan lagi hanya mengacu kepada sebuah tempat dari mitos Yunani tersebut, melainkan labirin di dalam bahasa Inggris menjadi sebuah sinonim dari kata "maze", yang berarti sebuah jalinan yang ruwet dan berliku. Pernahkah kita terjebak pada situasi yang sangat rumit, ruwet, memusingkan, dan sepertinya tiada akhir? Kita terasa seperti sedang berada di dalam sebuah labirin yang menyesatkan dan tanpa jalan keluar. Ke mana pun kita melangkah, yang ada hanyalah jalan buntu. Banyak orang yang sampai kepada situasi ini, dan pada akhirnya menyerah untuk terus berjuang dan berharap. Mereka pasrah pada nasibnya tanpa mau berusaha untuk membuat perubahan. Banyak juga yang pada akhirnya melakukan perbuatan tercela berupa upaya bunuh diri. Ingatlah bahwa situasi seperti ini bukan hanya kita yang mengalami. Pertanyaannya, apakah kita ingin menyerah atau bangkit untuk membuat perubahan besar dalam hidup kita? Apakah kita akan menjadi pecundang atau pemenang? Mari kita lihat pada kehidupan seseorang yang sangat terkenal di dalam Alkitab. Kita mungkin sering mendengar kisah hidup orang ini. Namun kali ini, mari kita renungkan baik-baik dan coba untuk aplikasikan ke dalam hidup kita. Orang itu adalah Yusuf, anak kesayangan ayahnya. Semua saudaranya membencinya, mereka membully dirinya, membuangnya ke dalam sumur, dan bahkan hendak membunuhnya. Namun akhirnya mereka memutuskan untuk menjualnya kepada orang Mesir. Di Mesir dia bekerja sebagai budak. Apakah kondisi ini masih kurang buruk? Ternyata memang masih kurang, karena selanjutnya dia difitnah bertindak mesum kepada nyonyanya. Dia di penjarakan. Sampai di sini coba kita tempatkan diri pada posisi Yusuf. Bagaimana kira-kira perasaan kita jika saudara kandung kita sendiri melakukan hal yang sangat jahat kepada kita? Singkat cerita, Yusuf tidak menyerah dan lihatlah akhir hidupnya, dia diangkat Tuhan ke atas puncak gunung tertinggi. Labirin macam apa yang ada di depan kita saat ini? Jangan menyerah! Hadapilah bersama Tuhan, maka Dia akan menuntun kita kepada jalan keluar dari semua kesesatan dan kebuntuan hidup kita, serta membawa kita kepada puncak kehidupan. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, aku menyerahkan diriku dan segala permasalahan yang aku hadapi ke dalam tangan-Mu, sebab tanpa-Mu aku tidak bisa menemukan jalan keluar. Amin. (Dod).

Hi, Void. This was a rough one. Have you ever seen a movie so bad it erased itself from your mind? You have?! So, you've seen Fantastic Beasts, the Secrets of Dumbledore too! What secrets? No idea. This is a common theme for the entire podcast. Positive moments: Theseus being hot, Mads Mikkelsen (also hot), and . . . that's about it. Jacob again should've been the hero, not the wet blanket that is Newt Scamander. Subplots overlooked: Nazis on the rise in Europe, wizards being dragged into muggle wars, Jacob learning magic, and Dumbledore's DEAD sister! Instead, we got Creedance giving "Mom, no one understands me!" Ultimately, we call J.K. on her BS and label her a false ally and a TERRIBLE storyteller. We have Avada Cadavra readied for the moment anyone mentions a Fantastic Beasts 4. We will bury you. 

On this week's episode of Local Legends, Martin is joined by author, academic, and storyteller Dr Anthony Nanson, who has written three books just about Gloucestershire's folklore!Born in Lancashire, Anthony is a storyteller who has had a pretty amazing career. He has toured internationally as well as all over the UK, and, with his wonderful wife Kirsty Hartsiotis, is also a founder member of performance company Fire Springs. Aside from Gloucestershire Ghost Tales and Gloucestershire Folk Tales for Children, as co-written with Kirsty, he has authored over a half dozen books including Gloucestershire Folk Tales, Words of Re-enchantment, Exotic Excursions, and Deep Time.He has a PhD in Ecological Storytelling and Storywriting from the University of Gloucestershire, a Master's degrees in Natural Sciences from the University of Cambridge, a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, and a Diploma in Publishing. On top of which, he also teaches creative writing at Bath Spa University, and his academic and creative work have appeared in numerous magazines, journals and periodicals across the last 30+ years.All of this helps to make him an incredibly interesting person. And, as if that weren't enough, he's extremely warm, friendly, and funny, too!As such, we hope you enjoy this ranging conversation, which includes topics as diverse as mysteriously disappearing hilltop caravans, the Greek hero Theseus, those things that distinguish storytelling from theatre, and, of course, Gloucestershire's folklore.Otherwise, we will be back on Monday with our brand new County Episode, in which we will be bustling through the history and folklore of Buckinghamshire!Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

It's 3 years, 10 months, and 12 days until the end of the legal presidency of Donald Trump, we hope. There's a small chance that the Democratic members of Congress could fix things a little faster is the midterms happen legally, but we're not holding our collective breath.

In this episode of Rabbit Holes, we take a deep look at the Wailea 670 (Honuaʻula) development and the long-standing fight over its impact on Maui. What started as a plan to provide mixed-use residential housing has morphed into yet another luxury-driven project, with broken promises along the way. We explore: The history of Wailea 670, from its original approval in 2008 to its latest legal and environmental challenges. The shrinking affordable housing commitments—how 700 promised units became just 288, and what that means for local families. Environmental and cultural concerns, including threats to one of Maui's last dryland forests and over 200 cultural sites, including iwi kūpuna (ancestral burials). The political landscape, the legal loopholes developers use, and how similar projects across Hawaiʻi follow the same pattern. A conversation with Stacey Alapai, breaking down what's at stake and how people can take action. How to Testify Against Wailea 670 The Maui Planning Commission is holding a special public hearing on March 11, 2025 to determine the future of Wailea 670. Your voice matters.

On this episode we cover the famous, ancient "Ship of Theseus" thought experiment, and then stretch it into relevance for the very modern possibility of tranfering our psyche, and possibly our very identity, to a digital format.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-history-of-being-human--5806452/support.

What is the nature of national identity? Can you replace the pieces that make up a nation but maintain the same identity? As the West wrestles with its crisis of meaning it becomes more and more important to understand who we are and what defines us. We'll be using the Ship of Theseus, a classic philosophical thought experiment, to investigate these questions.

In this week's episode, we discuss changes in global health from Barcelona, as indicated by how much public coughing is taking place now. This segues into a discussion of cancer, mRNA, trade-offs, and complex systems. Then: what DOGE needs to understand about science, which is not inherently efficient. What are indirect costs on federal grants, why are they necessary, and why do they vary? And: how does having indirect costs create perverse incentives by university administrators to privilege scientists over non-scientists, and Big Science over (regular) science. Specifically, science in the West is failing because fast, expensive empirical science is nearly always favored over slow, cheap, and/or theoretical science. Universities get richer, and Big Scientists get promoted, but grad students don't learn how to be scientists, and we all lose out on having basic scientific questions answered, which will ultimately be our downfall. Also: the Ship of Theseus.***** Our sponsors:Pique's Nandaka: delicious mushroom, tea, and chocolate drink that provides all day energy.

Send us a textWhat if transaction costs could shape entire political and economic systems? Join us for an insightful discussion with Shruti Rajagopalan, a senior research fellow at the Mercatus Center, as she takes us through her fascinating journey from the University of Delhi to George Mason University. Her research on India's economic liberalization shaped her understanding of economics and public choice theory, and now she is looking at the Indian Constitution as a subject of study. She shares how India's socialist elements and frequent amendments navigate the balance between democracy and central planning.Explore the contrasting worlds of constitutional amendments in the United States and India, where transaction costs play a pivotal role. We unravel the philosophical differences in how these two nations interpret their constitutions, impacting citizens' rights and governance in uniquely distinct ways. Through metaphors like the Ship of Theseus, we evaluate the stability and adaptability of these constitutions, shedding light on how they sustain their respective democratic frameworks amid evolving societal needs.Adding a dose of humor, we recount a satirical tale of international contractors bidding for a White House fence and explore the complexities of voting systems influenced by transaction costs. The episode takes a reflective turn as we discuss Ulysses S. Grant's memoirs, highlighting themes of personal sacrifice and political intricacies. This conversation promises to enrich your understanding of how economics, law, and political systems intricately intertwine, offering both serious insights and light-hearted moments to ponder.Links:Dr. Shruti Rajagopalan's web site at Mercatus and her personal web siteDr. Rajagopalan's podcast, "Ideas of India" and publicationsBook o'da'month: U.S. Grant, Personal Memoirs, Modern Library, 1999. A note on the TWEJ: Some listeners may find the joke racist. But in fact each of the three stereotypes captures a kind of "excellence," though the three kinds of excellence might not all be equally socially admirable. Gordon Tullock, who was discussed in this episode, made some observations about corruption that are worth keeping in mind: Western nations abhor, or pretend to abhor, corruption, though in fact there is plenty of it in the West. Tullock's point was that, in a nation with dysfunctional institutions, corruption can be efficiency enhancing. Institutions matter. The point is not that Germans are inherently organized and methodical, nor that Mexicans are inherently hard-working and efficient, and certainly not that Indians are all corrupt. But the political and economic systems of those nations create a setting where such actions are "rational," and even expected.  I wrote a piece for Public Choice on Tullock's insight, and the problem of India, and that's why I enjoyed this joke!If you have questions or comments, or want to suggest a future topic, email the show at taitc.email@gmail.com !

Episode 456 Brian Boucher is an art writer, journalist and critic living in New York, with bylines at publications including the New York Times, New York Magazine, Artnet News, ARTnews, and many others. He previously served as a staff writer and editor at Art in America and a staff writer at Artnet News. He writes about crazy artists' projects (such as when Darren Bader offered his practice for sale), reports on the art market, covers developments in the art education field, and often reports on places where the art world and the wider world intersect, such as the potential cultural impact of the second Trump presidency and how Syrian artists and other cultural figures are looking ahead to a post-Assad era.  Here, he looks back on some of the shows, events and artworks that moved him in 2024, some of which he wrote about, including Bruce Nauman's current show at Sperone Westwater, Marlon Mullen's current show at MoMA, Guillaume Guillon Lethiere's recent show at the Clark Art Institute, now at the Louvre, Christopher Wool's recent self-organized show at a disused Lower Manhattan office space, the collective MSCHF's piece “Met's Sink of Theseus" in their recent Perrotin show, and some he didn't write about, like the Maurice Sendak exhibition now at the Denver Art Museum and the Siena exhibition now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.  He also talked about some of the live music that turned his crank in 2024, including Soul Coughing, Tigue, and the Jesus Lizard, and looks ahead to the farewell tour of the legendary British punk band Gang of Four.

Because it only seemed right, here's a holiday re-airing of 2022's inaugural Battle of the Bastards. (Yes, Michaela and I will make this an annual thing!)
