Show Notes

Our episode launching today is in celebration of Valentine's Day coming up this weekend. Oh you know that hyper commercialised holiday promoting the idea that in order to be successful you need to be in a couple. Well my friends, turns out that's all a bunch of capitalist bullshit to make you feel like you're not enough!

So in this episode, we have Chris Skidmore of On The Souls Terms back on to tell us the story of Cupid and Psyche. Cupid, also known as Eros from Greek mythology, is actually a hot sexy man god who ravishes Psyche and they have secret sexy times. 

And contrary to what I thought it was about, this story isn't about heteronormative love, it's about one's own relationship to the erotic. ⁠
