Before we built the first great cities, reaped our first harvest, or listened to our first podcast, we were telling stories. Stories about us, the world we lived in, and the gods above. we used them to remember where we come from and to wonder where we might be going. In the spirit of the oral storyteller, humanity's oldest artform, I'm going to tell you a story. It might be a myth, a folktale, or something else entirely, but it will always be in my words, with a slant towards accessibility and fun. Come to learn, come to enjoy, come as you are to my table, as we meet heroes, monsters, gods, and everyone in-between, for Breakfast with Gilgamesh.
