Continuing on our first ever Roman tragedy... Seneca's Medea is mouthier, angrier, and even more vengeful and violent than Euripides, and I'm here for it. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content!

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
