| Video Discription | Apollo was one of the most worshipped gods in Greek Mythology. In fact, I don't believe that any other Greek God had more titles than Apollo: God of Light, God of Archery, God of Music, God of Healing, God of Dance, God of the Sun... and that's maybe about half of Apollo's godly titles. Basically, Apollo was the god of everything, and if there was any good that belonged on the podium of popularity next to Zeus and Athena — it was Apollo. Due to that, and due to his association with the sun, Apollo is often depicted as this radiating god of good, but that couldn't be further from the truth: Apollo committed many, many atrocities, and... I'm more than happy to highlight them in this episode: Episode VII Of Keeping Up With The Greek Gods — The God of Light: Apollo Is Evil Subscribe For New Episodes Every Saturday & Wednesday Notes: Since this gets commented on a lot, allow me to clarify: The Greek Gods represent ideas or concepts, meaning that in the case of Apollo... sometimes the sun burns things. Sometimes illnesses take people's lives. Sometimes bad things simply happen, and the Greeks attributed that to the will of the gods. That means that whatever good they represent of whichever concept — they also represent the opposite. So, yes, them being evil comes with the territory. If you ask me, that doesn't make their actions any less evil. So if we say "but you can't look at it from today's point of view" — I think we can. It's fun to do that. We live today, and we are revisiting these gods from today's point of view, and the things they got up to.... they're hilarious. I am entertained by the Greek Gods' evil, and I hope you are too. Oh, and also: Greek mythology is ancient — literally thousands of years old, so the material I am working with here has undergone many, many iterations. Every time I create one of these videos, I piece together the puzzle that is each god's and goddesses' tale. With how popular Apollo was, there are so many tales and so many versions to each tale — Roman and Greek — so bear that in mind. For the sake of this video — and all my videos — I try to streamline all of these tales and versions as much as possible and leave out some details that might make the videos less fun. So... is this accurate and well researched? Absolutely. Is this the only interpretation or way of telling you about Apollo? No, this is just my way to tell the story. Get All My Artwork & Support The Channel: I get a lot of questions about my artwork and where it’s from or rather who draws it. Well the answer is that I create it — I don’t draw it. I use AI to create the artwork, using specific prompts, specific style influences from 18th and 19th century artists, and I spend about 6 hours per video just on the artwork. Each video has roughly double the artwork of what you actually see in the video, so a lot of it is unused. The good news here though is that you can get all that artwork on my Patreon — the artwork I do use, and the artwork I don’t use. Plus, by subscribing to my Patreon you are making a major contribution to Briefed and helping me to keep this channel going, because this is my full time job and the survival of the channel and quality of the videos greatly depends on said support. In return for supporting, you get more than the artwork though — you also get exclusive videos and producer credit, as well as access to a producer group that gets to vote on thumbnails, gets behind the scenes etc. If you choose to become a Patron — thank you. I do not take it for granted. http://patreon.com/Briefed Sources: A lot of people ask me about my sources, and… to be honest, they are a mixed bag. One major source is my lifelong interest in storytelling and mythology. Another is the beautiful endless library that is the internet, and, third, I read the occasional book from time to time, which I’m happy to recommend to you, but also… I’m planning to write my own book on mythology, so, in due time it will be…: Source? Me. Yay.
