Fremen Combat Analysis with Martial Arts Expert Tim Cartmell
Please note: This was an episode intended to be a Patreon subscriber-only episode that we decided to release publicly for free in hopes of seeking feedback - We’re eager to build a following in general but also patrons on Patreon- is this the sort of content you would pay $5 a month to get every week or every other week? If so, why? If you’d like something different- what kind of things? If you support any creators on patreon- who and why? What do you love about their work?
We’re not asking for $, we’re doing market research!
You can respond to any of the following questions by emailing us at [email protected] or DM’ing at AT of our social media outlets.
Now onto the show...
The Fremen were already skilled in combat before Muad Dib sought to train them in The Weirding Way. Of course, this is why Leto wanted to make an alliance with them in order to face The Emperor’s Sardaukar. But the conditions of Arrakis present the challenges of dehydration, stroke, or death if one exerts themselves in the heat. How did they become so skilled at combat without dying (and maintaining their core belief in water preservation)? It’s a paradox we seek to unlock today!
We're coming to you with a special episode where we interview martial arts expert, Tim Cartmell!
Cartmell does an in-depth analysis on Fremen combat training and the similarities of knife fighting styles in different cultures.
In the post-interview portion Mike and Jeff hash out the concept of honor culture vs dignity culture as it pertains to the Fremen code of honor. You’ll hear familiar names such as the Scots-Irish of the Southern US and Appalachia mentioned too.
