The Dark Times: A Sci-Fi RPG Podcast
Episode XCI: More Like Moron-Myth
Season 1, Ep. 91
•
This episode is something I'd like to call a little cerebral. Put on your thinking caps and put down your pencils, we're discussing Carl Jung's Archetypes and Joseph Campbell's Monomyth, both things stated as inspirations for the story of Star Wars, and perhaps all of Western storytelling for the last 50 years.
Also, for these last 10 episodes, we are going to be uploading them biweekly. This is to give people the chance to catch up and send in their ideas to send off the Dark Times: A Saga Edition Podcast!
