The Importance of The Greek Myths To Modern Society with Stephen Fry

[@Sofipontia]

All us Greeks love the way you speak for our history.Thank you

[@MoAnInc]

🙏

[@nigelnyoni8265]

Don't modern Greeks claim Roman ancestry? Key word, CLAIM

[@ChurchJables]

I could listen to this man talk about anything for hours. So knowledgeable. Excellent interview Erica! Even if it was basically 33 mins of Stephen rambling about wonderfully interesting things haha.

[@MoAnInc]

Hahahaha he’s absolutely amazing - it was a privilege to get to listen to him one-on-one 😍

[@simondavis8634]

@@MoAnInc fantastic that you let Stephen speak without interruption

[@tylermileslockett]

I could listen to Stephen Fry talk all day about this stuff. loved hearing his perspectives and really enjoyed hearing about his school days studying latin and greek. Thanks for making this happen Erica! xoxo

[@MoAnInc]

Thank YOU for tuning it, Tyler!!! So so glad you enjoyed it ❤️

[@celsus7979]

Wow, you got Fry on! I watched 'a bit of Fry and Laurie' when i was a kid and loved it. Loved every role he has played since. Later i came across his books and his debates and really got to appreciate his mind. What a great guy. He is high up on the list of people I'd love to have a long conversation with. How nice that you got to do this, for all of us. Thanks to you both!

[@MoAnInc]

Thank YOU for watching‼️

[@papertoyss]

Stephen Fry captivates you by only the way he speaks and expresses himself. Love him. Thank you for making this video.

Thank you for promoting our Heritage. Stephen Fry is a very educated man, a good guy as well.

[@MoAnInc]

Stephen Fry is so, so lovely 🤩

[@Mudbone2000]

You were expecting to see a bust of Plato or a replica of a parchment fragment containing the Odyssey in his den, but no, Stephen Fry has a Penn & Teller Fool Everyone Magic Kit prominently displayed and easily accessible on the top right shelf. What a human being! Congratulations for getting that experience, and for maintaining your composure, (or editing out the shakes so seamlessly). I wouldn’t have been able to stop gushing.

I taught myself Ancient Greek during the pandemic, I’ve been reading all the myths and histories now in the original. It’s an entirely different experience now! So fun!

What a highlight to my day, Stephen Fry! 😊 (Great work Erica👍; Fry mentioned Robert Graves, any chance you devote a video on his "Golden Fleece"?)

[@MoAnInc]

Thank you for watching! I can come back to Robert Graves in the future for sure 😇

You ask Fry one question and you can sit back for 20 minutes.

In the video were you review the books by Stephen you mentioned how hyped you were to get an autograph from him. How awesome that you also got him on your channel! That must have been a dream :-D

[@js1423]

Great guest!

[@MoAnInc]

🥳

[@hippomancy]

fascinating insights on the psychology of greek society, which honestly might not have been presented under a directed questioning framework. thank you for letting him have his head in expressing his thoughts. could have listened to another hour of this, though perhaps running counter to your own intentions for the channel.

[@clockworkangie]

I am thrilled that you got to interview the one and only Mr Fry. You totally deserve it! 🙌💎🎉 Thank you for being such a wonderful interviewer and allowing him to answer your questions in depth (the Oscar Wilde anecdote was pure gold ✨). I hope your paths cross again and we get to enjoy another future chat 💜

99% or 100% of Greek myths have a basis in truth Understanding the language is the clue to translation

[@joandevries1256]

Great you got Stephen Fry on here. Just wish you had broken in a bit more with some more questions this felt a bit like a monologue sometimes. Had hoped you asked him about his 3 books a little.

[@MoAnInc]

Thank you! I understood in doing this interview that this was not my time to shine but Mr Fry’s, which is why I didn’t interrupt. It is also just my interview style that I don’t interrupt my guests - I want them to feel comfortable and open sharing what it is that they want. However, I was particularly relaxed with this interview (more so than I usually am) not being a deep dive into Mr Fry’s mythology books for a very good reason … 👀

[@tatianawhittingstall7571]

[@johngerles842]

As a Greek, I thank you very much for dealing with the coded and hidden universal wisdom of Greek mythology. Theogony, Psychogony, and Cosmogony are taught to those who have the ability to listen and learn. Bring on your shows wise men like your guest today who unlock for us this wisdom hidden by the wretched so-called theologians.
