Listen "Episode 4: The Third Archetype"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Aphrodite introduces her third archetype: Nerites, a former lover known for his beauty, distance, and refusal to follow her onto land. In the present day, he’s “Nick,” a charming but emotionally removed man who avoids intimacy under the guise of freedom. Set at the Met Cloisters and a Manhattan hotel, this episode asks what happens when love crosses boundaries, and whether being wanted is ever the same as being cared for.Content note: This episode includes emotionally intense themes, including boundary crossing, sex, and non-consensual dynamics.
