Herodotus, Father of Tangents, Asides, and Digressions (Herodotus' The Histories Bk 1, Part 1)
Come one, come all to a new episode exploring the wonders that is Herodotus' The Histories! Today Michaela takes on an adventure into the beginnings of the first history text from Greek antiquity. What was going on at the beginning of the Persian Wars, will we even get to the Persian Wars, and how many tangents does the father of history go on!

I try to provide direct warnings when there is reference to anything with overtly traumatic themes but be aware that Greek mythology regularly features assault, death, and many other potentially triggering events.
