The Pursuit of Hippodamia and the Curse of the Pelopidae

It's that time of year again... When we talk about the most horrifying stories from myth. Today, that cursed and murderous family, the Tantalids. 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.
