The Sacred Band of Thebes: Parts 1, 2 and 3 All in One Place

We love the mini-series we’ve done on the Sacred Band of Thebes. And we wanted to give you a chance to binge the entire thing. So, for the first time ever we’re dropping a really really long episode. Like road trip long! If you were planning a trip through the Peloponnese (swoon) – then this is the episode for you. Next week we’re going to follow our series on Gender Rebels into the wild world of Greek mythology. We’re going to be visiting some of the most famous characters in Greek mythology and looking at them from a new lens. And we’re starting with Achilles and Patroclus. Were Achilles and Patroclus the prototypes for the Sacred Band? We know that you’ll enjoy their story more if you have had a chance to listen to the entire Sacred Band of Thebes series. We’re not saying its mandatory – it’s just … you know, a really good idea. And we needed a little break before we got into the next phase of this series. So, join us for the full and uninterrupted tale of The Sacred Band of Thebes. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
