Short Stuff: Venus de Milo

This episode of Stuff You Should Know's "Short Stuff" series explores one of the world's most famous sculptures: the Venus de Milo, which has resided in the Louvre since 1821. Josh and Chuck dive into the fascinating mysteries surrounding this ancient statue, including her true identity (she may not even be Venus at all), who actually created her, and the biggest question of all: what happened to her missing arms and what were they doing? The guys chat with art historians and archaeologists about competing theories, from the apple-holding goddess interpretation to the intriguing idea that she might have been an ordinary woman spinning thread.
