14: Springtime, Brought to You By the Patriarchy

Summary: This week, Carlea shares the myth of Persephone and Demeter, an ancient Greek explanation for the seasons. Because, as everyone knows, winter is caused by the abduction and forced marriage of a goddess by the king of hell. Aren't you glad it's spring?
