This is a fantastic podcast. The story of the Odyssey brought to life by a professional story teller. If you have read the Odyssey you'll really enjoy hearing the story you kind-of remember brought back to full memory with additional story highlights brought along for the ride. Jeff Wright also has a podcast on the Iliad delivered in this same style. Both are top 10 podcasts.

A go-to podcast - the best Odyssey commentary
