Another great & thoughtful video essay! The story arc of a TV comic who becomes the leader of his nation & when a terrible man sends his massive army to invade that former comic's nation, he doesn't leave for safety, he picks up a weapon to join the fight - and his people do the same. It's a heroic journey nobody could predict.

So psyched you included Station Eleven in this essay! Beautiful work Tom!

I have a question regarding the book by Frankl. There are two versions, the original and a newer and deeper one called "Man's Search for Ultimate Meaning". Could anyone recommend the updated version, or should I stick to orignal? Thank you!

I’d say stick with the original, I think the other one is more of a technical work oriented to academics whereas the original is aimed at a general audience and is much more powerful in its delivery (I’m pretty sure the second book also lacks Viktors personal story and his experiences in the concentration camps, but don’t remember it exactly)
