Story 54: Hephaestus Makes Cool Stuff (w/ Leo TheGeekScorpio)

Muses of Mythology

“Hephaestus is our protagonist, so we’re on his side right now.”
Leo the GeekScorpio (he/him) returns to discuss the god of the forge, Hephaestus! And that means DJ, once again, gets to dunk on Eternals (2021).
Other topics include wedding anniversary gifts, reorganizing the Periodic Tables of Elements, DC Hephaestus being a secret-keeping bro, Pandora’s Box v. Pithos, and the correct way to impart divine knowledge without undermining human ingenuity.
