Epic Proportions: The Legendary Life, Death, & Conspiracies of Gilgamesh | 386
Manage episode 439287558 series 2444282
This week, we’re diving deep into the murky waters of ancient Sumer to unravel the life and legend of Gilgamesh—part god, part man, and full-time hero. Was this towering king of Uruk just another ruler with delusions of grandeur, or was he really a demigod who battled monsters, befriended wild men, and defied the gods themselves? Join us as we explore his epic quests, including his obsession with immortality, his fateful bromance with Enkidu, and the secrets that may still lie buried beneath the Euphrates. Plus, was Gilgamesh the world’s first superhero—or something even weirder? Tune in for all that and more as we decode the ancient tablets, question history’s first literary masterpiece, and ask: why does Conspiracy Bot suck so much???
