“I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” 

It is the 100th episode special of the ThyGap podcast! Big thanks to everyone who has tuned in, to those who will in future, and to those who share! 

McNullity joins us this episode as we talk all things Dune, our appreciation of the fine work done by Denis, Zimmer and team. The Dune universe is full of rich characters; a world of immense scope and scale, and it's not easy condensing all that down to a movie script. We provide some additional context behind the characters and plot points that illustrate just why this movie was a masterpiece. Link to the playlist mentioned: bit.ly/Qu19NDu9E

Not just the movie though, we also go into what the Dune books by Frank Herbert were trying to point at - humanity in the grips of the messiah complex. Just why do we clamor for saviors, prophets and 'chosen ones'? Why we like to thrust people on to pedestals and escape accountability? What's so wrong about wanting a hero to look up to? Is there a way out at all? Let us know:
