ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The fates already know what we say in this episode...but unless you are a ye olde Greecian soothsayer and weave maker, you will probably still to listen. Your family life is already pretty complicated when your parents are also mother and son; so Tig already has a world of drama to deal with before her uncle Creo forbids her from covering her dead brother to pay respect. Throw in some pop culture references from Lexie & Meg, (Top Model, Black Mirror, and much more) and the podcast is set for some epic tragic conflict in this modernised adaptation of Antigone.
Co Hosted by Lexie Ward and Meg Robinson.
Music By Connor Barton (Sethera Sound Design)
