Film 1: Halloween (1978). Michael Myers is an icon, which means he embodies something that massive groups of people resonate with on a primal level. So what of our fears does Michael Myers expose? And how can we stare him in face with confidence and hope?

Film 2: Martyrs (2008). A Martyr is a witness. If a group labels someone a martyr, it means that group believes the martyr tells the truth. How can our own suffering teach us truth, and what is the right way to approach the suffering of others?

(Wil wants to make clear he does not recommend anyone actually watch this second movie)

We marked the E sticker on this episode not because any swear words are used, but because we talk directly about some traumatic experiences that may not be appropriate for every listening situation, or for younger listeners.
