If you had to choose a segment of the episode, about 15-20 minutes, to excerpt into a preview, what would you choose? What was your favorite part of the discussion. We're curious to know what other people thought was the most illuminating or enjoyable part of the conversation. 


Thanks.

The discussion on archetypes was interesting.

the high context and low context cultures stuff is fascinating

I was about to tweet about this! It's too bad this is Patreon exclusive because I really want to share it with others. To answer your question: the last 12 minutes, starting with "Everybody's battling for the souls of the fail sons." Chapo is getting some of them. Jordan Peterson is getting some of them. "All this stuff we're talking about: Jung and Campbell. Jordan Peterson is weaponizing that." Esp right at the end: "A lot of people on the Left think they're too good to deal with that pseudo mystical, Jungian stuff. They'll reject the baby and the bath water. Because of that they won't be able to compete for the hearts and minds of these fail sons." I've been thinking about just that. Excited you're talking about it here and look forward to future episodes.

But you also probably want to excerpt you analyzing using Jung in a way that was insightful: give people a reason to believe Jung is not just bs. And it's good to counter the idea that Jung is ONLY for loser white fail sons. I thought the part about having both a false idealized self and the false shadow self was interesting. Also the fact that some people look at a shadow figure like Tony Saprano, Tyler Durden, and Don Draper and just think they're cool. While others totally reject them and don't want to acknowledge that part of themselves.
