Mary Beard· Host0:35

What's funny about this is the way that if you know the Odyssey, you, you kind of anticipate these trailers, but you anticipate them because you go into decoding mode, right?

Charlotte Higgins· Host0:49

Yeah.

Mary Beard· Host0:50

Charlotte Higgins· Host1:01

Oh, totally.

Mary Beard· Host1:02
