Description
The story of the Trojan War is one of humanity’s oldest tales of
armed conflict. For the Ancient Greeks the war represented the
bloody end of an historical epoch. The fall of the city marked the
end of the so-called “Age of Heroes”, and heralded a new era where
superhuman demi-gods would no longer walk the earth. But is the
Trojan War just a myth, or was there a real conflict that provided
the inspiration for the story? It’s going to take three whole
episodes to find out, so strap in! Tune in and find out how Oceans
11, heroes in drag, and divine bribery all play a role in the
story!
