Geoff has been using it personally and it's been going great for him. Not every monster in mythology starts as one. And Medusa has dozens of interpretations. Is her story a cautionary tale about getting caught up in fame? Or is it a romantic tragedy? Was Athena's decision to transform her a curse for defiling her temple, or a gift of freedom? Let's break it down and talk about the most famous of the gorgons, Medusa. ___________ Support the people who make this show, vote for future Extra History topics and get great perks at our Patreon! http://bit.ly/EHPatreon Subscribe & ! to our channel on YouTube at http://bit.ly/SubToEC Got more info about Extra Credits on our website at http://extracredits.site/ Grab your Extra Credits gear at the store! http://extracredits.store/ ___________ Thanks for participating in this week's discussion!
