This is August's patron video that I decided to make public. In it I explore the modern idea of self-esteem—where it came from, how it shapes our culture, and why it so often leads us into confusion and disorder. I contrast this with the Christian vi... more

Jonathan Pageau probably does more for the symbolic, anti-enlightenment movement in the popular mind than anyone else? He’s super interesting, well-spoken, and interviews a lot of interesting people. Highly recommend.
The criticisms about him being associated with Peterson are ridiculous. Peterson has done more for Christian evangelism than most Christians ironically. It’s not Jonathan’s fault he isn’t Christian yet. Also, don’t complain about the ads, that’s how he makes money. Just skip them.
Very thoughtfully made podcast about spirituality (Orthodox Christian), theology, pop culture, history, stories (folklore, fairytales), and of course the symbolism that unites it all. If any of these things interest you, you’ll probably enjoy this. Some talks are harder to follow since they can go into some extremely deep topics but it’s always worth a listen. You will learn something new here, and it might just change your life.
I’ve been a long time listener but all the sudden there are ads throughout the episodes, and randomly so. I find myself trying to understand the symbolism of makeup ads during the witch episode but maybe I am doing it wrong.
This is my favourite podcast. It’s so good to listen to someone not just looking at the big picture but… the really big picture.
