We told you this would be the end, but our boy takes so long going around Ithaca, creating individually crafted lies for his friends and family, that we have one more episode left! We lied to you. Now you know how Odysseus’ friends and family felt. Topics include: divine shriveling, the rule of spoilers, an extremely unfair fight, a book of useless lies, HateBoy, and more oil than you might suspect.
