198: The Western Zodiac

After making too many jokes about Virgo season, Julia is making it up to Amanda by giving her a tour of the Western Zodiac! We still know too much about Zeus’s love life, but we would buy from Castor & Pollux’s new clothing line if they advertised to us on Instagram.      Here’s the Mixology Astrology chart.  Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about or mentions of sex, depression, abduction, sexual assault, murder/death, animal death, infancide, and attempted suicide.      Housekeeping - Recommendation: This week, Amanda recommends An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz.
