Story 129: All That Glitters

“So, f*** you, Midas, for being a snarky bastard.”

Darien (she/they) and DJ (he/him) immediately abandon the episode topic order and skip to the original king of bling, Midas. 

Other topics include Jason having a genuinely cool hero moment, an origin story for a mineral-rich ancient river, the dangers of having bad taste in music, big thoughts about Charlie Daniels’s ‘The Devil Went Down to Georgia,’ reflections of high school assigned reading, DJ’s realizing the perfect method to get Darien to finally finish her draft, and the Scarlet Letter guy removing “heathen wickedness” and adding a daughter to the King Midas story. 

Content Warning: This episode contains mentions of and conversations about death by petrification, murder, and beheading.

Spoilers for The Heroes of Olympus, Aladdin and the King of Thieves, Hercules: The Animated Series, Once Upon a Time, and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
