"In describing gods and monsters, we are describing our values."
Greg and Toby begin their deep dive into Let Them Go, the New Century Multiverse prequel published in 2018. Analysis includes a brief dip into the gothic genre, mythology archetypes, analysis of our primary characters, and much more. Spoilers for Prologue and chapters 1-5.
Trigger warning for new readers: the inciting incident of the story involves a brief depiction of suicide. This episode does not discuss this topic in depth, as the conversation was excised to be uploaded separately to be considerate to others.
