Welcome to the Lion's Den, the place where editors go to stop caring for a moment. After giving our very serious takes on Christopher Nolan's Odyssey for two weeks, we decided to get together and ask the one question nobody has been waiting for: How would WE realize the Odyssey if Elon Musk decided that middle-aged Europeans are a better place to waste $100 million than Grok?

And so we present you more or less proudly our three proposals, all of which are guaranteed to be more Homeric and - for the most part - more fun than Nolan's version.

Unfortunately, we had some technical issues with our podcasting software, which led to us recording this on Google Meet after all. This left us with bad quality video and unfortunately only a single camera view at a time. Thank God for 90s video filters to make things at least a bit more interesting.

Join us for a little off-the-cuff fun, have a drink - as we probably should have - and listen to your favorite Substack essayists making damn fools of themselves.

Welcome to the Lion's Den!
