Emily and Manu are taking a mini break in the month of June, so we are making some of our old patreon exclusives available public as we gear up to cover The Return of the King!

 

We welcome our friend Wilf (@socialaskan) to discuss the study of history and the various pedagogies that inform how we conceive of the past, and how that plays out in JRR Tolkien's framing of the The Lord of the Rings and Legendarium, as well as the Peter Jackson's "end of history" take for the films!

Intentionally Disturbing

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
