Paul chats about creative ideas, and especially, the three most un-creative ideas in his infamous VVZ rule. Special pandemic episode!

In an ambitious single-episode, Paul discusses both the Iliad and the Odyssey, focusing on the characters, the themes, why they're timeless and why we have to look at them as products of their times. As well, he expresses concerns over their modern over-internalizing in masculine circles. 

Last November, famed director Martin Scorsese penned an article in the New York Times attacking the cinematic virtues of the MCU and similar franchises. In this episode, Paul attempts to defend the merits of the films, their source material, and touches on everything from comics to myth to Star Wars. 

In the series opening, Paul discusses his intentions for the podcast and then proceeds to look at Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale in honour if International Women's Day.
