This encore episode reprises last year's popular episode about one of our oldest relationships with a non-human: dragons, and the very different ways we've imagined them in different parts of the world. Helping or hurting, making rain or breathing fire. The difference, of course, is us. Here, a brief, beastly history of the creature we can’t live with—or without.
You can see many manifestations of dragons, European and Asian, in Mia’s collection.
