Have you heard the great Greek tragedy of Oedipus? The king who killed his father and married his mother. There's more to it than that. Why did Sigmund Freud coin the term "Oedipus complex" based on this story and say that, basically, every man suffers from it? Why is this still regarded as one of the greatest tragedies of all time? Do we have control over our futures? Or has destiny already decided our fate? And if so, what's the point? What's the whole story of Oedipus and what is it trying to say about the human condition?

As always, Davie will tell you the whole story in dramatic fashion and we will discuss it deeply! There is a lot to unpack in this story of one of the greatest kings with one of the most tragic life stories of all. There's love, revenge, murder, loss, gain, and of course a big, scary monster who tells riddles, what would a Greek myth be without that?

If you've heard the story before, give us your thoughts. If you haven't, prepare for a doozy! Either way, most of us only know parts of this great tale. Let's hear it in full, let's take it apart, let's be thoughtful and open-minded and as questions that make us have to dig a little deeper into our beautiful minds. As we always do, let's have a fascinating discussion!
