The Cyclops is smarter than you think | Odyssey Book 9

53 min•20 mars 2026

You might think you know this part of the Odyssey, the part where Odysseus encounters the cyclops, but most people have barely scratched the surface. There's so much going on in Book 9, and we're going to discuss it all! Who is the cyclops, Polyphemus? Why is Odysseus telling this story? It takes keen eyes to read between the lines, or should I say eye.

Listen to Book 10 of the Odyssey to be prepared for next week's episode on YouTube.
