Book 18: The Beggar and the Braggart
Streams straight from the publisher. PodNod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
Inside his own palace, the disguised Odysseus faces a new challenge when another beggar, Irus, picks a fight to impress the suitors. With Athena’s hidden help, Odysseus wins the brawl in dramatic fashion. As the suitors continue their revelry and Penelope appears to delay their demands, the beggar-king quietly observes and steels himself for the battles ahead.
