This hour, we talk about what we can learn when we hear a story from a monster's perspective. We discuss misunderstood monsters, and why humans create monsters in the first place. Plus, we’ll learn more about Medusa, and talk to a researcher who studied purported yeti samples to find the animal behind the myth.
