Escape Hatch (formerly Dune Pod)

The Summer of Jason continues our long journey as we're joined by Homeric teacher and scholar Bijani Mizell! Bijani has taught The Odyssey for over 10 years to high school kids, so she was a lock to help us tackle Christopher Nolan’s magnum opus take.She covers (in language you can understand!) the history of the poem, how Nolan relates to the translators who have come before him, and digs deep into the themes of the story. Join us for this very special episode.
