The unmarried women, again, being very, very generous here. Argonauts are great. Everybody's happy in there. Bye-bye. So the Argonauts sail off. That night there's a terrible storm, which makes them run aground, and it's night. And when they get onto the beach, the people there start to attack them, and they fight back, and they kill the people who are attacking them.

And when dawn comes, they've killed their hosts from the day before. So young Sisychus has been murdered, and his wife is so destitute that she hangs herself. And they try to do funeral games in apology, but it's no good. They've killed their hosts from the day before. So they're kind of blundering around. You're getting the sense that they're blundering around.

Absolutely. I'm impressed, so impressed by your knowledge of geography. And this is what I'm saying. You've got the exotica of these traveling to these amazing places, but also the etiology. Oh, that's where it gets its name. That guy died there. So he's given his name to that place and now he'll always be memorialized with that name.

So yeah, and we're getting more and more exotic and more and more strange things happen. And then they come to a really fun island or the place where Phineas the blind prophet lives. And of course, this is the story of the harpies. and how Phineas, again, he snubbed some god, I think it was Zeus, and Zeus punishes him by making him blind, but giving him prophetic powers.

So Phineas knows that Jason's going to come save him from the harpies, which are these horrible, Half women, half birds, who in some accounts have rooster heads and female bodies and claws. And they defecate and drip saliva everywhere. And they befoul all the food so that you can't even stand the smell. And when poor Phineas sits down to eat, they come and they befoul his food and take it away.

Now, in the film, they do an amazing thing. And I'm sorry I keep harking on about the film, but it's so brilliant. They actually filmed it in Paestum, south of Pompeii, where there's some ancient Greek temples, Doric temples, Tuhira. And they actually have the actors climbing on one of these temples. They wouldn't be able to do it today. And they put a big net over it. And it's not CGI.

It's a real net. The harpies are claymation, and they actually catch the harpies with this net. In Apollonius, this is where Zetes and Callias, the flying sons of Boreas, come in, and they chase the harpies, and they fly after them with their swords.
